Godheads

Edna and Aten are two of the most popular gals in the universe. Everyone wants them for something, from their original assignment to take down the Net to having others convince them to do something else. They're tough and smart and survive everything from desert landscapes to wandering through rifts in time. Devenport does a great job of making an alien society come to life through human encounters with it. Godheads was an enjoyable read.

This is a wonderful sequel to Eggheads. There is an amazing plot twist that completely blew me away and I hope it will do the same for you!

IF YOU DON'T WANT THIS BOOK TO BE SPOILED DON'T READ ANYMORE REVIEWS. For some reason, the previous reviewers thought it was cool to spill the beans and ruin the big surprise for anyone who reads them. If you know what they say, it'll ruin the whole damned effect of the book. So, take my word for it... this is a great book. I love all of Devenport's books and I wasn't disappointed by this one.

_Godheads_ was another victim of my "pick out a book by a random female author" method of book-buying. I have yet to be disappointed. :)Devenport did what, I think, she set out to do--shake up her readers' conceptions of reality. We spend half the book thinking that Aten and Edna are two different people (with of course a few subtle clues to the truth), only to discover that this is not the case. It certainly made me re-think my ideas concerning the plot! Perhaps the book was a bit confusing, but Devenport's originality more than makes up for any fault in her actual writing style. Her book's got one heck of a punch! :)
