After book 8, this book was a little disappointing. It seemed like a filler episode. The ending was filled with lots of excitement and heart-racing moments, but the rest of the book was kind of slow. I guess because the end of the series is getting closer, the authors felt like they needed a book that would set-up the final battle, which I believe this book did accomplish. I still like this series. It has many faults, but it is definitely fun and entertaining. The series is also filled with a lot of heart and strong characters. At first, I did not like switching from one character to another in different sections, which started in book 6, but now, I feel like it is vital to understand how each characters is growing, moving along, and making decisions that impact the whole story. I am really enjoying Thanatos. I believe that she can kick some ass when given the chance. I hope to see her and Zoey kick Neferet's ass. I am definitely looking forward to the next book, but as I get closer to end, I am starting to get a little sad. These characters are definitely fun. I hope that all of my favorites make it out alive!
