A Local Habitation

I read the first October Daye novel a while ago. And while I enjoyed it, there were elements of the style that were off putting. I am happy to say that Local Habitation has much fewer of those problems stylistically. The story was enjoyable and revealed much more about the world the novel inhabits.

My only criticism of the novel is that much of the character conflict within the novel revolves around October trying to investigate a strange situation. It feels as though very little progress is made through of her own accord.
