My rating: 4/5 Stars
It is no secret that when there is a good book at the beginning of a series, this causes the sequel to be disappointing. However, I feel like this didn't happen with this book. There was still so many twists and turns with surprises along the way which kept me on my toes and it pushed me to read further.
The only reason that this book did not get 5/5 stars, is due to the fact that I thought that it wasn't completely up to the standards which was set from 'Blood Red Road' even though I thoroughly enjoyed the book. I just found that it was slower-paced than the first book and there wasn't as much going on.
The Jack story was interesting as throughout the book, I constantly kept changing my mind as events occurred. "He obviously got forced into it" or "He has some reason for doing this and has a plan."
Let me tell you one thing, I was expecting there to be a love triangle somewhere in this book, because main characters are never able to have a happy relationship without something coming in between them at some point but I definitely was not expecting there to be a love square. That was an interesting touch.
The characters have developed so much in this book, such as with Lugh who actually has a main part in this book and he obviously has some secrets which he is keeping which just makes him more intriguing.
I would like to read the next and final book of this trilogy, but I do not currently own a copy and I will not go out of my way to get one, so if I manage to find a cheap copy of this book in the near future, I most definitely will purchase it to find out what happens in the end. especially with DeMalo.
