Burned

Well. That was surprising. Part I of the book was kind of boring, and I had resigned myself to Burned being a disappointing instalment in the series.

And then.

I should have seen it coming. I should have guessed. In hindsight, it could have been nothing else, no one else. All the signs were there, but I missed them. And it changed everything.

Parts II and III were so good! I'm still grinning. I love invisible Mac. I mean, I thought it was a creative and really funny way to finally, finally give us some answers.. I especially enjoyed going behind the scenes at Chester's and being privy to the private interactions of the Nine. And holy moly has Dani turned into something, eh? I hope she doesn't stay Jada forever, but wow, what a fierce, powerful being. It's amazing to see how she has realised some of her potential. I think Dani's lust for life is important to make her whole, though, so I hope the fractured can be made whole again. Also, I had thought that the Highlander series was completely separate from this one, but upon reading the guide at the end, it appears there's a connection after all; so now I want to read that one, too.

Despite the darkness, there was much more humour in this story than I was expecting, and the execution was really enjoyable. It flowed smoothly with no jarring bits. Lots of fun and a great addition to the series.
