Book Reviews of Birds of a Feather (Maisie Dobbs, Book 2)
Book Review: Better Than A Finger In The Eye, I suppose.
Summary: 3 Stars
Slightly better than the first book. Not quite as hokey, but the new agey "aura sensing" involved in the investigating is pretty lame. The characters are rather dull and lack any depth or heart (Billy Beale and his phony accent are too much.) There is still too much pseudo-intellectual psycho-babble and a pretty thin subplot featuring Billy Beale drags the story down a little.
However, the main story is better in structure and content. (Although I figured out who the murderer was well before the fianle so it can't be that great.
And thank God the ridiculous Khan the "Blind Ceylonese Mystic" character is only mentioned briefly.
I'm willing to give Maisie one more shot though.
