Least favourite: the plot moves on at a snails pace so some scenes have little or no event, also the book ends unceremoniously
I agreed with the least favorite part.

Yes that's when it becomes interesting. Good one.

Hopefully the sequel will have a better ending that readers will like.

Also a better beginning because next time we don't need to set up plot so much as most readers would already know it.

I enjoyed the fantasy parts when Sarah connected to the Bear that led her to the past. There was a feeling of timelessness and mystery, that more could be hidden in the wilderness than we can understand, or perhaps we could understand once, but we today have lost that connectedness with the natural world. You can feel it in the old places of the world, where man has not dominated. Sarah seems to have the sensitivity, or intuition, to link to that. You would expect it of Myra, given her heritage, but she seems to be too angry and involved in everyday issues.

That was a pretty good scene.

I was extremely thrilled and exciting when Sarah threw darts at the two guys. They deserved it anyway.

This was a bit of a worry to me too.

My favorite scenes were Myra's debate with Sergei and when Buckhorn employees destroyed the artifact and the violence that later ensued.

That was an exciting scene. I just wished she had thrown them sooner.
