Reactions and Reviews

Almost all PFL's stories take a little bit of work to really get; this is one of her hallmarks. But they're incredibly, masterfully constructed; every single clue is there, and right where it should be, where it needs to be. When you re-read you discover links - like repeated words and phrases, which could be accidental but aren't; they're quite conscious. You have to trust this author: everything has a purpose, everything has a place, everything belongs exactly where it is and nowhere else - it's up to you to figure out why. It's all exceptionally well thought out, and the more you read the more you will discover, the more the structure and pattern will become apparent to you - and when it comes to structure, she has few equals. It's quite difficult to pick an exerpt to illustrate this; you really need context, but in keeping with the theme, because she is, really, a Master Gardener herself...[1]
