This was another good book to listen to from this series. I enjoyed the fact that more characters are being developed. The next in the series appears to be focused solely on these new characters. I'm not sure how I'll feel with no Skippy.
Speaking of Skippy, I've been reading the first two books and thinking of Skippy as a deus ex machina character that swoops in and saves the day. There still is so truth to this, but Skippy is mostly an omnipotent Swiss army knife. Although there is very little he cannot do, it is Joe that has the flashes of brilliance that save the day. With some of the side comments in the story, Skippy's story is getting murkier with each page. Perhaps the dynamic of Joe and Skippy is about to change?
