I've chomped down three of these books in four days. They're like popcorn, irresistible. Each one focuses on a different character who was peripheral in a previous novel. I keep getting pulled along to explore a new aspect of the Psy-Changeling world.
This is the book where we learn about the marine Changelings and see them build bonds with Bowen Knight, head honcho of the Human Alliance. Bowen has two strikes against him: he has a electronic chip in his brain to protect him from Psy manipulation, but it is rapidly degrading, threatening to kill him. Additionally he has taken a sniper's bullet to save his sister. There's a scientist deep under the sea who can maybe help with both problems. That's where Bowen awakes.
Bowen is pulled in multiple directions, especially when he meets a lovely shifter, Kaia. She starts out hostile and suspicious, but comes to realize that love of family and loyalty to coworkers isn't limited to shifters. Kaia is a bubbly, mischievous caretaking woman. Opposites attract, so they say, and Bowen and Kaia are proof of that adage.
My mini reading binge halts here for a while, as the next book has a looong waiting list at the library. This is just as well, as I have a stack of library books staring at me, wondering when their turns will come.
