Between Darkness and Light

This is the fifth book in the Sholan Alliance series. If you like Marian Zimmer Bradley's Darkover series, you will like Ms. Norman's Sholan series.

After reading the other six in this series...

Story seemed to run a little slower than the others, but I think that was because of the way we were moved around in the areas that also had importance to the goings on.... I had enjoyed the other six books in this series... and I hope more are written... This series would definitely make a good movie, and also a good TV series.

Between Darkness and Light

If you like character interaction, this book is for you. If you're into large calibre problem solving, this book may not be. SciFi shoot-em-ups are OK as far as they go, but if I've always liked real characters acting and reacting in real ways to the problems presented them. As with many book series, it's best to start with the first book, Turning Point, and read them in order.In Between the Darkness and the Light, Kusac, a 'feline-like' sholan and the main protagonist, has to cope with the loss of his special telepathic link to Carrie, a human, as well as hide the fact that the sholan kit he's trying to rescue from the Valtegan General, Kezule, is his son. And then there's the rotten apple in the sholan contingency. What are his plans? And why is Kusac so attracted to General Kezule's wife? Especially since he doesn't want to be! Then there's the Telaxaudin who's keeping a real close eye on Kusac. What's his hidden agenda? Things have a real potential for getting out of hand and the results could spell disaster for Sholans and Valtegans alike.I like how author Lisanne Norman plays characters off of each other in ways that keep the tension high and the reader wondering when the other truckload of shoes is going to drop. For me, it made the book hard to put down and resulted in several sleepless nights.

Dealing With the [Darkness]

Will Norman extend the...pairings to the TeLexaudins? Is it even possible?Recommended for all Norman fans and anyone who enjoys tales of personal and interpersonal development in a SF setting.

Read the Series in order !!

To understand this book, you must have read the previous books in the series. (This is the bad news, why? Because so much of what occurs in this book takes place as if you have read the series.) This book is very well written. A vast improvement over her last two, but those two books are VERY, VERY critical to this book. To discuss what happens in this book beyond that Kusac is trying to rescue his son Shaidan is to give away too much. The ending? Your left hanging of course. Lisanne has done a great job of making this book entertaining and thought provoking.Enjoy the book, you will not regret it.
