Description
Set hundreds of years in the future, The Lady Who Loved Lightning follows the characters of Paradise Lost as they journey out into a mostly deserted galaxy, searching for any life anywhere. When Walt and Chely (a young couple) find a marginally habitable new planet very far away, plans are made to develop the new world as they see fit--including procuring a new moon (as pictured on the reverse cover). New characters and old populate this fourth entry in the Carolyn & Brandy series, which also focuses on Carolyn's relationship with her boyfriend John and how she faces the very real possibility that she may certainly have lost him forever.
The two previous books in this series are Paradise Regained and Paradise Lost; the third, A World Full of Lobsters, is a manga that's currently mired in pre-production issues. The first two can be found exclusively on amazon.com.

The Lady Who Loved Lightning is a fun easy read which makes for a nice change.
The author gives the reader an interesting take on the usual type of book in this catagory stretching the imagination as they delve into a fascinating alternative existence way into the future
Although this is part of a series can easily be read as stand alone although I find myself wanting to read the preceding novels
I have to point out that this is not my usual choice of genre but chose it because I found the title and write up interesting but would say that it is great for those readers who are fans of this type.

Very interesting take on the future with an eclectic group of people. The writing style took awhile to get used to, but about 2/3 into it I finally had a grip on who was who and the flow of the story. There were many details that were alluded to but never clarified. I kept wondering what I had missed. The ending was really bazaar. But if you like futuristic sci-fi, you will probably enjoy the book...I did by the end.
