A review by harmony
Dead Man's Tide by D.J. Bodden, James A. Hunter

3.0

The story continues to entertain me, although the way that Talia (the firebrand, however her name is spelled) is both portrayed and treated by the narrative, really makes me uncomfortable and I suspect I'm going to be unhappy if/when she's brought back into the main storyline. Alan's an okay protagonist but I find myself more engaged with his companions than with him himself.

Actually I'm thinking back and I'm having trouble pointing to literally ANY female character who isn't either fridged or portrayed in this book as psycho or two-faced in some way. That's... concerning... Will probably read the next one but if the female characters continue to be mistreated and mishandled I might have to walk away from this series.
