Really enjoyed this new recording of the audiobook. Unlike when I listened to this nearly a decade ago, and liked it OK, I'm actually looking forward to getting to the sequels.

This book kept me on the edge of my seat throughout - so many cliffhangers and plot twists! I enjoyed how the story unfolded and I was invested in it, but there isn’t much deeper meaning here. I haven’t watched the TV show yet but I plan to!
