When the Bough Breaks: A Novel of the Serrated Edge

Rating:
Summary: A realistic depiction of MPD w/in a gripping urban fantasy.
Review: I read all and own most of Lackey's novels, including collaborations. I particulary like her urban fantasies because they grapple fearlessly--and realistically--with real-life issues. In When the Bough Breaks, the authors portray multiple personality disorder very truly, yet merge it seamlessly with the other aspects of the story. Don't get me wrong! This is not some psychological narrative, but another excellent combination of fantasy and modern life from master storytellers. I highly recommend it!

Rating:
Summary: Thought-provoking and informative
Review: This is a brilliant book. It manages to deal with a very topical issue, without being too preachy. I particularly liked the ending where the villian gets his just desserts ~ if only such options were possible in real life!!

Rating:
