I'm sad to say that I didn't like this book, at all. Here were some of the thoughts that I had while reading it:

(1) The genocidal backdrop didn't exactly put me in the mood for romance. Yes, I know the "Cleaners" had a "lifetime of conditioning" against the Mutahs, but that still doesn't make me cool with the genocidal behavior.

(2) Yulen becoming so intrigued/smitten with Atty from the get-go didn't seem to make much sense, and therefore, it was hard (or, impossible) to get invested in his character and their relationship. So, a guy who went through such lengths as to be scarred in order to save one of his men, because "he wasn't going to risk losing another man," could so quickly fall for a girl who just killed sixteen of his men? Why did he fall in love with her so quickly, and more importantly, *how* did he?

(3) Of course, conveniently, Atty doesn't have any of the disfiguring kinds of Mutah traits.

(4) "Like two halves of a whole, they each slowly slid off their horses." Oh boy, so mawkish. The whole romance in general was oversentimental, really.

(5) It sure doesn't take long for Atty to start calling Yulen "Yul," and ask if he has a wife. Again, the relationship between the two happens so fast with no real development.

(6) Mary Sue much?
“Why do I get the feeling she’ll never cease to amaze us?”
“She cooks. She can shoot the eye out of a flea at a hundred paces. And she’s a one-woman ammunition depot. The only thing she isn’t is a lusty wench in bed, but I guess you already have plans on what to do about that one, right?”

(7) All the plot points seemed pretty forced.

At the end of the day, this is a romance book, with a very poorly developed romance. I didn't feel anything stronger than apathy about the relationship between Yulen/Atty, and therefore, I felt very detached from the entire story. None of the fantasy or world-building elements were interesting enough as to save the book elsewhere. The characters were one-dimensional. I'm struggling to try and think of one positive thing about this book, but just can't seem to do it. I did manage to finish it, so, there's that, I guess.

Wow...what an awesome book
I have read all 5 of the books in this series by Linda Mooney and have really enjoyed them. I plan to keep my eye out for any further books and purchase them too. The main female character is sort of a furturistic Robin Hood and is able to make amazing shots with a bow and arrow. The main male character and love interest is a warrior complete with sword and armor. The book has a blend of action and romance. I think Linda Mooney is a author that I will keep on my favorite list in the future.
This is such a warm loving book with action and romance. I have read it numerous times and still laugh and cry. The whole series is excellent. Who couldn't love Atty .....
This is a nice quick read. The romance was well written, and the battle scenes were also well drawn. My only fault, and it is a minor one, is with the world building. For peoples who have fought for generations the turnaround was done without much soul searching. Other than that very minor point this was an excellent book that I would recommend to anyone who enjoys both science fiction and romance.
I cannot say enough great things about this series! I love Atrilan with her blue hair whose courage and mad hunting skills gains her the attention of the Battle Lord who along with us, falls for her, too. Theirs is an epic love on the scale of Romeo & Juliet, Scarlet and Rhett, Tristan & Isolde except of course thankfully for us, their love continues to grow and thrive through each new book. Why is it so epic? Their love grows amidst a planet full of dangerous creatures at every turn in an environment filled with hostile people who believe this love is an abomination. Mutant (mutahs) and human cannot not be together. All mutants must die and the mutant genes must die with them. And yet with each demonstration of her skills and her innate courage and goodness Atrilan brings about change in how mutahs are perceived. The love between Yulen (Battle Lord) and Atrlan (mutah) affects all those who witness it and proves once again how we are more alike than we are different. And being different should be celebrated.
I lucked up on this book and fell in love. I have since read all 6 books. This is a series and you have to read the books in order. All the books are about the main characters I absolutely love that. Most authors call it a series and you never hear about the main couple again, Ms Mooney didn't do that. I love the H and h, they were both strong characters and their love story made me cry, laugh and scream. There is explicit sex but it isn't on every page, but when it is watch out. If you are looking for a good actual series to read this is it.
The mutant basis of the story put me strongly in mind of Futurama with the underground mutant population and Leela being non-deformed enough to pass for normal on the surface. This was not a bad thing since I am a huge Futurama fan and the rest of the plot was different enough to not be seeing double.

The plot was good and the hero and heroine were likeable. The romance is pretty much a love at first sight type. I do not have as much of a problem with those like others seem to do because, really, isn't that how a large number of couples get together in real life? What makes the difference is whether a couple can make it last in the long run.

Overall, this was one of those tough ones for me to review. Despite the story having a lot going for it, I just failed to connect somehow.
