This series is just fun to read. It's not too serious, it's easy to read, and not overly complicated if you don't read them as standalones. Arik was an interesting character whose POV we have through the whole book. He's a bit on the morally grey side of things, but we learn why that is and it starts to make sense. I definitely warmed up to his character, especially after what we learn he did for the Kimballs in "The Alpha's Warlock." And we learn about his tragic past and what lead him to working with the Kimballs, and I was definitely eventually rooting for Arik. This was a bit of a slow burn in a way, and the build up and tension made it worth it in the end.
