Resurrecting Cybele
on Oct. 07, 2013
Resurrecting Cybele is the story of Cybele Moondragon and her misguided attempts to start a harmless cult, while her ostensibly helpful friend, Janus Styx, has what are possibly more nefarious intentions. Much of the strength of this book is in its fast pace and witty popcult references. The numerous plot turns are often based on the secret machinations of various characters as each tries to figure out what the other is doing. There is plenty of well-paced tension in this novel, and really no portions where the plot or dialogue wander off into some cul-de-sac. The dialogue is sharp and well constructed, and the characters interact in ways that are in turns humorous and suspenseful. I should add that this work is also impeccably edited, without those grammatical or proofreading gaffes that mar so many ebooks.
