I read books one through 3 in this series. I really didn't enjoy them at all. In this book, I was just waiting to see which character would get raped next. It seems like this is the main source of violence in these books - male characters get painfully killed, and female characters are repeatedly raped. I think this book has the potential to be good, if it weren't for the enormous amount of violence and rape. There is a way to write such books without such an emphasis on rape. To me, it almost seemed like the author enjoyed having his female characters raped. Or threatened with rape. Which is why it all seemed kind of sick to me.
