I can't decide if I like Oliver and Lark or not, especially when Oliver makes his big sacrifice towards the end. It almost seemed unnecessary and a lot of the situations seemed really forced. But it was interesting.

We first meet Lark and Spencer in Book One. Lark was still an infant and Spencer was holding her being mistaken for her father. Oliver was the sickly boy of Stephen and his first wife, Meg. As an adult, Oliver tends to overindulge living his life to the fullest and never knowing if he will be literally taking his last breath. While, Lark has turned religious, judgmental with Batman-like qualities.

I found the historical aspect of Catholics and Protestants almost more interesting than Spencer and Lark. When it is just two of them, they seem to go around in a circle that can get a little tiring to read.

Regardless it did keep me reading. It was okay. I preferred the characters in the first and third book more but the action here was better.
