Shaun Collins (3 KP) rated Lethbridge-Stewart: Moon Blink (#5) in Books

Jan 12, 2018

Moon Blink is a great start to the new "season" of LS books. There are some great ideas in here, and a few truly golden nugget scenes. Unfortunately, the book doesn't coalesce quite as well as it should, particularly when it reaches the final act. The villain (and thus the climax) never reach full potency after a great set up, which was frustrating.

Once again, Anne Travers takes the lead in the proceedings while Lethbridge-Stewart is relegated to the background, but for this story, that dynamic not only made sense, but was essential. Sadie Miller exhibits a natural knack for writing these characters, and has a strong voice with which to do it.

It may only be a three an a half star book, but because it was so enjoyable to read I have it the benefit of the extra star. Can't wait to read more!
