This book holds a lot of emotion that really makes it one of the best of the series. Whether it’s their fear, anger, love, no matter what it is you can feel it as you read. There are some incredibly proud Zu moments that make you want to be strong too, and everything just molds together to form this amazingly powerful book. The only con I can think of is the desire to go into the book and smack Liam over the head for some idiotic decisions. The best part of it all was the last chapter, the last few pages even. It brings you back to the feeling of driving around with them in Black Betty. Such a perfect way to wrap up these three books.
