You know, after being told that I liked these books too much, I
desperately wanted to hate one so that I could give it a scathing
review.

*SIGH*

Hrerin follows a review for the bwilliant Sanctuary, by David McIntee.

I often put NA authors into categories by length, i.e.

very short books:  Nigel Robinson
short books:  Paul Cornell, Kate Orman
longish:  Andy Lane, Jim Mortimore.
Huge! - Falls the Shadow, Warlock

David Mcintee went from one to the other, so I find it difficult...

um.  Where was I?

Sanctuary features perhaps the best Benny characterization since
Love and War, and she has the book all to herself, which admittedly
is not all tea, weddings, and bridesmaids.  Her romance is realistic
and doomed in a gothic way.  Kudos here.

The Doctor. Excellent.  Knows he can't get involved, and _hates_ it.

Others:  WOW!  Here is something that David always does well:  his
books never have a character out of place, and they all have relevance.

9/10, mainly because it was painful at times (in a good way, but...)

--say it definitively this time.  You are such a git!" - Benny, Human Nature
