Small Persons with Wings - Ellen Booraem 2.5 stars

Good concept, enjoyable. A bit shallow for me. The entire Fidius issue, from start to finish, was handled very inelegantly. No finesse, no compelling explanation for his actions, his treatment of Mellie. That aspect could have been emotionally powerful, but instead all we get are some off-the-cuff remarks about how that was unfortunate, he did not mean for this to happen, bye? Argh.

Never connected with the characters myself, but thought that there was potential enough for most readers. I liked the Parvi Pennanti myself, the idea, the grandfather, the Latin.

But just not enough for me to really enjoy....
