I was going to give it 4 stars, until I got to the last page. Notice, I didn't say the end. Because the story did not end. The climax was not reached. The conclusion did not happen. If the writer had to stop the story there she could have ended it better. It's not that it ended in a cliff hanger. It didn't. It just stopped. That was disappointing. I hope there is a sequel in the works. This was a really good story. Interesting, well written. I was going to give it 4 stars, until I got to the last page. Notice, I didn't say the end.

Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Enemy Hands (1)
The Republic had taken everything from Moon--her research partner, her privacy, her illusions. They thought they had her under control. They were wrong. Sirin, Moon's new research partner, is a chemically enhanced math genius whose memory is erased every two days. He's also a charming, fascinating man who is attracted to her anew after each memory loss cycle. Escape from the regime that treats them like tools is impossible. There are too many walls around them, too many eyes watching. But when you've got nothing left to lose, running becomes the only option. 89,000 words Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

I won't go farther into the plot because this is one that I would definitely recommend to any SFR lover and I don't want to spoil it.
The romance is very well done and you feel for Moon loving him and knowing that every 2 days she must introduce herself to him again as a stranger. You also feel for Srin who somehow knows that his life is not right but who cannot remember why.
These two characters are more well drawn than a larger portion of H/hs in straight romance. They are both living and breathing and fully realized.
The sci fi element is also well done. The experiment that Moon is working on seems plausible in a future setting. The space ships are well described and rationally written and don't seem like super duper all powerful behemoths which ignore the laws of physics. The planets are gritty and realistic. The sci fi is not dense and impenetrable for non sci fi regulars however.
My only real complaint is that the book ended very abruptly. I clicked next page on my reader and literally blinked taken aback when the next page said "the end." I really hope there will be another book because I need to see what happens next. ( )
