Bethany Moreton: IMG Culture War on Aisle 5? Wal-Mart, Evangelicals, and "Extreme Capitalism"

0 comments By Bethany Moreton

"In the 'culture wars' narrative of the Republican ascendancy, this slippage represents the greatest con in recent history: while you rush to defend marriage or protect the unborn, please pay no attention to the financier behind the curtain." Continue »

Disappointing. In Key to Conflict, Gryphon's Gillian Key showed promise. A psychologist specializing in the field of "paramortals" and a soldier, she's introduced as an intelligent and somewhat complex character. In this second installment, Key becomes a caricature. She's abuntantly glib, spouting mythology-laced epithets and alliterating mid-combat. I could hardly spend five minutes with her, so it's hard to believe that that's she's won the love of an immortal. Add to that a regurgitated storyline about Jack the Ripper in modern London and a painfully shallow byline treatment of a child prostitution ring and, well, you get the picture. This genre is bursting with compelling women, best leave this one alone...
