Summary: Nicely Done
Review: Perhaps I'm just biased b/c I'm a cat person, but I really enjoyed this book. The story is centered around Seeker pair Doyce Marbon, human, and Khar-Pern, ghatta (a catlike creature), who share themselves with each other through mindspeech. Yes, I know, a little more than reminiscent of Mercedes Lackey's companions. But if you liked the companions, then all the more reason to give the ghatti a chance:)Doyce and Khar, along with others like them, are on a quest to put an end to the murder and mutilation of those who share the Seekers' mindspeech abilities, while trying to avoid becoming victims themselves. Suspenseful and adventurous, the story moves quickly after the first 200 pages or so. The beginning is rather hard to follow, with the reader being deluged on the spot with too many new characters. (Keep in mind that with every new Seeker introduced, there is a ghatt who also needs introduced.) I recommend having the second book on hand before you finish this one. The ending of _Finders-Seekers_ could be an end in itself, but not an altogether satisfying one.

Summary: A cross between Mercedes Lackey & Jennifer Roberson
Review: Quite good once I got over the earings (straight from Jennifer Roberson) and the telephatic cats (very much like Lackey's Companions).

Summary: Purrrrrrrrrrfect
Review: Really good "Tail" of Doyce and her beloved Khar, the Seekers.
The Ghatti's are large cats who mind-speak to humans they bond with . Wonderful charactors with a interesting twist in the story.

Summary: big dissapointment
Review: The concept intrigued me. Telepathic cats mind bonding with a one and only chosen human that then go about as a team to seek truth. Maybe another McCaffery Pern to enjoy? Not by any measure. Gayle Greeno fails on every level to build more then one-dimensional characters, a planet that is fun to visit or a society that has any awareness of existence. She makes and breaks rules for her world without a thought of how they impact her story. I plowed through the 500+ pages in a stubborn resolve to complete this book, insisting on giving this author every chance to actually offer a story somewhere in the tome or at least to endow one of her characters with some semblance of intelligence. By the end of the book I would have settled for even a thought process but was denied even that. How often have we heard "write about what you know"? GG insists on arming her main characters, the SEEKERS, with sword and staff which they then use in fights, but the author knows nothing about fighting or the tools of fighting much less the mental attitude required by a person that carries and uses deadly weapons. GG empowers her Ghatti (cats) with the power of telepathy with each other and a select human but never uses that power to explore the 'enemy' that is not introduced until the very end although GG does tell the reader around page 200 while denying it throughout the story. The Ghatti also have the power to know TRUTH but deny that same attribute to the main characters and ignore its use to reveal the enemy. The lack of a plot is very annoying especially combined with the abrupt 'wrap-up' at the end that answered no questions, disposed of no enemies and didn't even leave any interesting questions to pursue in future books. Which is an interesting point since I know she has written two more books in the Finders-Seekers series and one other series since then. I presume she must have something to offer if DAW produced at least six of her books. I will be wary of purchasing a book published by Elizabeth Wollheim or Sheila Gilbert in the future.
