I have just completed reading Hunter's Moon. Several times during this process I felt I would not reach that point. I had read more than three chapters before I could really say who the story was about - the whole book was so disjointed! The story was believable, but I think if the author had put it together in a smoother vein, it would have been more of a pleasant read.
Most of the characters were incomplete. That one correction would have given this book more subtance. More background on why the evil characters were the way they were would have given them more substance as well. There was no emotional attachment between the reader and the main character. He seemed not to have a clear emotional connection with any other characters. The timelines were jumbled and not being clearly defined made it even more difficult to follow.
The religious antedotes seemed insincere, placed in situations as if an afterthought. I saw nothing in the main character's actions that showed any type of convictions or any depth of his "conversion". It is true he had a lot of mental and emotional baggage, but even this was not explored enough to strengthen the character's motives. Needless to say, I was dissapointed.
