Junkyard War by Faith Hunter

3.0

 

3 stars - I liked it

After a lot of build up, Shining Smith and her crew have finally obtained the weapons and people needed to mount a rescue and take down their enemy, Clarisse Warhammber. This was action packed from the very beginning. Shining brokers a deal with the rival motorcycle gangs, storms a stronghold, fights giant mutant rats, and finally takes down Clarisse. Oh and she finally gets her man. This was an enjoyable ending to this series and I really loved seeing Shining step up and fight for her friends. She changes everything for the future of this area with her ability to get rival gangs to cooperate. 

My only real complaint was that I was expecting a bit more from her relationship with Jagger. They have been circling each other since book one but there was a lot of romance between them really. Yes, they had sex and in the end say they will commit to each other, but I was expecting a bit more emotion between them. This was still a great series and ending though. 

Trigger Warnings: war themes; torture; death of friends and associates; grief; death; PTSD; death and injuries of animals;
