Ariadne's Children

Rating:
Summary: Strange family!
Review: This book doesnt seem to have an ending, I was looking for another chapter or sequel. I think Lionel would deserve this inconclusive ending but not Dan. Being in Sajeavo on the outbreak of civil war with an arranged marriage certainly leaves more questions than answers. Does it become a real marriage? What of his real girlfriend? What of the war? I like resolution and happy endings in books this does not give it. Basically it a good read that jumps about a bit in time to tell the story on a need to know basis and avoids annoying when doing so. I wonder about the real excavators of Crete and if he was using any facts to fit his story into and would like to follow that up. Its an OK book that travels about well but seems to end a bit previous. RB probably thinks that is about par for the course for this particular (disfunctional?) family, and maybe he is right. I would recommend it but only 6/10.
