Otter's Rock

I know a lot of people have been disappointed with it, but I think that's because they went into it with expectations that led them astray--either that this was going to have the wham-bang adventure of a Miles novel, or that Aral (a noted bisexual) and Cordelia (a Betan) were going to have a purely conventional marriage and that anything else was Wrong and A Betrayal. At least, from the "bad book" reviews that I've read, those are the two main themes.
