4.0

I almost returned the book at the half way marker because it felt like the author tried to pull an M Night Shyamalan on the readers. It felt like the author literally threw away the two and a half books previous, but after a long winded flashback montage, it came together in a way that made sense and did not actually destroy the previous books. The first title was the best, and this one was decent but felt like a lot of filler that didn't relate to the plot.

Concepts were phenomenal and the human tropes weren't too stereotypical. I did end up enjoying it and I do think the series will stick with me.
