This whole book is a big change to the series while fitting in quite comfortably with the rest of the books. Hugh being a giant fuck up is great. Kate is a slow study, but a good student, and taking advantage of her and Barabbas' knowledge of human and pack law to upend Hugh's plan was wonderful!
I'm deeply upset by characters I love being used as canon fodder, but I understand the need for their deaths to convey the weight of the situations our characters are in. I spent the entire book waiting for Robert to betray Kate, but I'm glad it was more of an opportunity for readers and Kate to become better acquainted with clan rat.
I'm very excited for Andrea's future kiddos and the possibility of Julie playing babysitter and Kate once again being an aunt. I look forward to seeing what Jim does with the pack. And I look forward to seeing how this changes the dynamics in future books.
Roland is definitely a wild card character. I'm excited for whatever lore about him and anything else we'll get in the next few books.
