The continuation of Aemi's story in Itlantis. Adding attempts on Aemi's life to the story incorporated an additional level to the mystery of her life. The intrigues of various characters all blend together to make a complex story where you're not quite sure who to trust or whether there is an ulterior self-serving motive. I was pleased to see the return of certain characters, even if said characters returned with an impressively enhanced stubborn streak. Fun story. ( )
