Would have been a 5 star read, but why on Earth ia thia not written from the main character perspectives? 

I love the perspective from Gray and the events of the book but reading it from Trace & Gabes POV just wasn't it. I don't even care about these characters or have any desire to read their novels.

I wanted to 'take the piss' for the hell of it and give this book a one star as well, but...
It fucked me and my head on so many levels and I went through hell during the past few days reading these books! I skipped a few chapters, only reading some dialogues because my heart couldn't take the stress and anxiety and pain!

Level of stress for the duration of reading this series? High as a motherfuck!

There was nothing good about this series! Seriously! Abuse, rape, head fucks, games, hurt, so much fucking pain, breakdowns, and all the wrong things in the world!
But, the fact that through all this hell and shit I actually kept on reading, willing to know the end, needing to know what happens to these guys that I actually fell in love with. And that, is a skill not all authors have!
So kudos to Jack! Not for the head fucks, because seriously right now I think I need to see a "Halliday" myself now, but for a great style in writing in this series.

Took a while for me to get going but once I did I read to the end. I must confess to cheating tho', I read the last two chapters early on. I had to check that my boys wouldn't suffer too much more. Another masterpiece that draws on characters from [a:Lynn Kelling|5766021|Lynn Kelling|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1331078772p2/5766021.jpg] and uses them well but not too much. Lots of loose ends and twists are finally unraveled and tied neatly away, so in a way this book is the end of the beginning. We are left with a few questions, will Martin finally disappear?, will Gray meet his father? and will Gray meet his ....? (that would give things away, so read this book! I promise it is not as dark and violent as the others)

P.S. The cover picture doesn't fit my mental photo of Gray - he doesn't look old enough and is slouching!
