I loved the first book and were looking forward to this one for years! LOL

I like the planet Harp and its environment so much! I love their culture, even if it is a little bit elitist. In this case it's normal: the shifers are the top of the evolutionary chain. They are the top predator of the planet and also the part of the population thanks too whom all the others survived, being them part of the plant ecosystem.

It was interesting to read about that. The semi-sentient planet which rejects the intruders. So the survivirs of the colonist had to do something or die killed by the planet. And they tampered with their genome and produced the shifters.

All that is the huge secret the people of Harp keep form everybody and also the big secret Aidan must keep from Rachel who's obviously bewildered. She has proved herself and her moral code time and time again, but she just knows that Aidan is hiding something and keeps thinking all the wrong things.

Aidan is very conflicted: he trusts Rachel, but the secret is not only his. On it depends the existence of his whole world!

I loved both Aidan and Rachel. They were both very strait-forward persons with high moral code. And thier feeling for each other were also true.

The action is non-stop as in the previous book. Rachel must overcome her "shortcomings" because she's human, but she's tough enough to do it and to do it very well! Aidan ahs it easier since he's a shifter, but he's honest enough to admire Rachel for her force of will and her physical resilience.

Because Harp's Green is deadly! And we see ample demonstrations of its deadliness!

We know since the beginning who's the villain, but we never discover who's the villain's boss, so I think there's ample space for a sequel that I'm going to love to read!
