Starburst by Robin Pilcher

I've been looking forward to another book by this author for some time. His last entry A Risk Worth Taking was published in 2004. Mr. Pilcher has two other books to his credit as well An Ocean Apart c1999 and Starting Over c2002. I REALLY liked A Risk Worth Taking and the other two books were good light reading as well.

The new book opens up by devoting each chapter to a character or characters as a prelude to the Edinburgh Festival which, by the way, is a real event. I had a bit of difficulty with this because I found myself making a list of each character and what they were "bringing" to the festival. Actually, by the time the festival is introduced, the characters were set in my mind and I enjoyed observing how their lives changed.

This is good light fare for avid readers of the Pilchers.
