Very different than the first book. The pace was all over the place. Very slow in the beginning and rushed in the end. Would have been much better if there was less quantity, more quality.

After reading Ninth House, I was so hesitant to start this journey. The first book left me confused at times and I felt myself losing focus. 

It took me only a few chapters to get heavily invested in Hell Bent. The story was so much more intriguing and fast paced. The characters flaws were on display and I was chomping at the bit to see what was going to happen. Loved this book. Cannot wait to see if at third will be coming soon!!!

A strong follow-up to Ninth House, with good development to the cast of characters surrounding Alex. Looking forward to future installments.
