It's pretty good, I generally like the characters even if Miller is a bit of an ass. I like Fred; he's good and honorable. 

The plot is pretty good; pacing is pretty good. They build drama and tension without being too hacky.
The ending is interesting

This series is so good. Honestly the first book isn't even the best one, but it's still so good.
