Jane Lindskold, Thirteen Orphans
Tor (2008) ISBN: 0-7653-1700-1
Score: 2

Start of Breaking the Wall, an urban fantasy series based on the Chinese Zodiac and mah-jong. This book is set in the USA, but I expect parts of future books to be set in a parallel world/fairyland. Very interesting premise and likable characters, but not much action or suspense.

Sixth and probably final Firekeeper book, in which things are resolved. A good ending for the series.

Score: 1.5

Second book about Firekeeper, the girl raised by wolves. The setting and characters are still quite good, and Firekeeper plays a more central role. But the plot had a few sloppy inconsistencies (and one possibly major one), and a couple things I thought the characters should have done in the previous book would have made this book's conflict impossible.
