Which explains why even Tobias' relationship with her was pretty superficial...
I think she should have been more involved...
I was hoping for a re-emergence of the sassy, take-no-crap Loren of
TAC. Instead, we got a wimpy, barely-seen background character who had so much potential it wasn't even funny.
But then, so much of the final books was awfully under-developed. The blind girl who lived with Marco and his parents, for example. The fact that Marco had his mother back after so many years of fighting for her, and then he doesn't spend time with her? Even if he hugged her and burst into tears, it'd be something!
And Tobias, an orphan for so many years,
finally has a mother, and he barely sees her either!
I know they were fighting the Yeerks and everything, but
geez! Talk about lazy writing!
