I probably enjoyed this one more the first time around. This time I found it a bit too slow. Mostly because I missed the usual cast of characters and I always think this series is stronger when Mercy is with her people. Poor Mercy does take a literal beating in this one, several of them in fact, and I had to wonder why Stefan didn't give her a bit of his blood to help speed up the healing process. It's not like he wouldn't! Still, it was a decent enough story that dragged just a little too much for my liking.
