Daughter of the Blood

I was content with the book, but I would not read it again.
My opinion of this book depends solely upon my life experience and frame of mind while reading it.

Other reviews here quite thoroughly cover the failings of the story, the prose, the characters.
Most tragic of all the failings are the repetitive and poorly executed ideas.

What held my attention were the snippets of my own life's truths scattered through the book.
To borrow from the Vorkosigan saga regarding total surrender: “When you give each other everything, it becomes an even trade. Each wins all.”
