The main problem with this book is the static nature of the characters. Events happen but nothing transforms the people; they end up more or less as they begin the story. I didn't find the main character, Marla, either very likable or compelling. But, if you care more about the events than the characters, and like magic (sorcerers, ancient Aztec gods, seers,) and San Francisco (where the story takes place) you will be able to read to the end. (I questioned finishing this book, but just did it anyway.)
