God, finally stuff is happening. This part of the plot should've (and easily could've) happened three or four books ago.
There have been some interesting character developments among Zoey and Co.'s group. Zoey is finally interesting again, even if I'm still sick of the multi-boyfriend angst. Some characters even experienced actual consequences for their actions: good and bad!
What's my complaint? Neferet. She's a boring villain, overall. Makes me want to say, "Cool motive, still murder." If Neferet's backstory and motivations had been slowly fed to the reader during the series, it would've been so, so much better. As it is, and as I said in a previous review, it's too late for that. The only thing all the reveals do is make me believe the authors had no real plan for Neferet's backstory to begin with.
One book to go.
