A very generous 3 stars if I'm very honest. I have dipped in and out of the series and was hoping for a great ending to the series. I was left disappointed. Mac is lacklustre as a hero and basically stuck to his misogynistic traits, only making allowances for his beloved and a few other "worthy" females!
Then the heroine is a bit of a doormat. She seemed to allow her husband to ride roughshod over her and her feelings, making excuses for him when all he seemed to do was belittle her before his "heroic" death. I did sympathise and even empathise with her streak of revenge when her children were targeted but other than that she left me feeling kind of "meh"
I felt the characters could have been so improved dammit!
