Query: Characters You Care About

Quite often, series books start to go downhill after the fifth or sixth book, but Sharon Lee and Steve Miller are still going strong on book seven! Each episode of the Liaden Universe series reads as good as or better than the last and "I Dare" is no exception. The biggest strength for me of the Liaden novels is the well-detailed sympathetic characters and the newly introduced Pat Rin yos'Phelium continues that tradition when he is thrust into a heart-wrenching situation a struggles to deal with it. All the old favorites make an appearance, from Daav to Val Con, with some additional new friends as well.
