This book is the definition of 'mid'. As I finished reading the last sentence, I couldn't help but throw the entire thing against the wall, so take that however you want.

Peter Lake is an extremely lovable character and I'd say that this book did him injustice. In total, the book starts of wonderfully strong and then falls apart, I've lost interest too many times and I really wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
