The Cry of the Go-Away Bird by Andrea Eames (view source)

Overall, though well written, the novel is trying to tell too many stories in too many ways. Elise's story is cut-off by the dramatic political events occurring, but those events appear as from nowhere and lack real context. The book is still worth reading for a glimpse into this interesting and unfamiliar world, but there may be better novels to come from Andrea Eames.
