As a wind-up to the whole series of 6 books, this was a flop.
Maybe I?m rigid, but I expected to find out what Atlas Daltry?s grand present would be ? but no. However, I must say that Elaine Crawford explained the lack of the grand present rather adroitly.
I could swear that the last 2 books of the series indicated that Atlas was studying medicine. After 3 years, he comes home with a business degree.
Atlas Daltry arrives home via train and immediately notices a woman dressed almost like a clown. She?s loud and boisterous and grabs everyone?s attention. Atlas is interested because she is very attractive, aside from the gaudy clothing.
When Grandma Minerva gives Atlas the ?labor? of taking the strangely dressed young lady on 5 outings, I nearly burst a gasket. The previous labors have been of one year?s duration (see other books listed below).
Atlas is horrified and makes a list of all of Charlotte Clairmore?s faults. He presents it to his grandmother and she is very unhappy with her grandson. She will not change his labor, but answers each of the faults Atlas has listed. After the dressing down, Atlas decides that maybe there?s more to this ragamuffin on two legs.
Obviously, Crawford ran out to pages. She did get the whole Daltry clan together at the end, but it was not to talk about each of the 6?s labor.
When I got through reading the book, I said, ?Is that all there is?? This book was a real disappointment, it failed to wind up the series ? it just stopped.
I?ve had to order each of these books through my library?s Interlibrary Loan, taking weeks. My anticipation was high. Perhaps if I?d bought the books (they are mostly out-of-print), I wouldn?t have been so upset. I liked the concept of 6 authors writing about 6 related persons; however the writing was very uneven.
