Good but not my favorite. I liked Aeron and I liked Wrath and I liked how Aeron and Wrath felt about Olivia. So I really felt cheated in the end with the resolution. Without giving the story away, we all know the h&h wind up together, but there are some real issues with the resolution that are very disappointing.

I thought Aeron was funny and his interaction with others was funny. I thought we spent way too much time with Strider. Olivia - meh. Legion - I don't get why this character was created in the first place. She didn't seem to really have any impact on Aeron's story - big picture. Maybe more will come out later. And it was all a bit too creepy. I am certainly craving to know more about Gideon and Scarlet (next book) and the revelations about William and maybe Gilly connection are intriguing too.

Overall it was an OK installment but I didn't finish the book dying to read the next as I've done with the others in this series.
