It was fun to see Laurent open up more in this book and see how his plans come fruition in the later part of the novel.

The characters, relationships, and plot twists in this series are absolutely phenomenal. My jaw was on the floor several times. The best part is that all of the twists are foreshadowed and well earned. 
Also I want to break Laurent down into a primordial goo, put him through a centrifuge, study the resulting pellet under a microscope and do chromatography on the supernatant. I'm so normal about him.
