I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. I read it out of order, and I can't wait to go back and read the other books in this series. Will Trent is a very likable character. I appreciated Sara Linton, but I found myself enjoying the chapters that were written from Will's perspective the most. I enjoyed the author's descriptive writing and deep knowledge of the subject matter.

Usually Slaughter's books start out slow and it takes me a while to be hooked, but it's always worth it. However this book in particular was too slow for me, probably because the whole book happens in 2-3 days time, I had to push myself a lot to finish it. Even though the ending was completely schocking and totally worth it, I was still a bit disappointed. I also thought the theme was a little simillar to "Pieces of Her", with the whole "the only way to change the world was to destroy it" thing. I like the theme, and all the other intense, violent and necessary themes she brings in this book (as always, she doesn't hold back), but it felt a little repetitive.

I could listen to this Kathleen Early narrate all day.

The storyline was captivating, educational (who knew?!) and overall incredible. I felt like the end was a little rushed, but I’d definitely recommend.
