Compared to other books in the series, many dark themes are not as singularly dealt with here. It doesn't detract but rather builds a greater empathy for all of the characters, those who are maybe reprehensible especially. There was certainly more of the adventurous and roguish in this book too compared with some of the more relentless entries in the series.
