She Came in a Flash

Rating:
Summary: Not as good as her later books
Review: I got the third book (She Came By The Book) as a gift in '98 and spent the next three years hunting down the rest. I finally got my hands on this one and, sadly, I'm dissapointed. Maybe it's becuase I know how things end up, but I was expected a set up book to lead me from 'She Came Too Late' neatly into 'She Came By The Book'. All I got were more questions and confusion. Not enough character development and too many plot holes. In the end, I had to tell myself there was a mysterious 'missing' book that would explain all my confusion away. Read as a part of the series, it'll only perplex you. Read as a single story, it's pertty good. The mystery holds togeather enough that I kept turning the pages, but I could have done without the (poorly explained) imprisonment.

Mary Wings does get better, and I'd suggest skipping this one and going straight to 'She Came By The Book'.
