The book started great, a dark military fantasy about an autistic (human) Terminator released upon an unsuspecting world, with violent and hilarious results. I absolutely loved that, but then the author (or the editor) decided to keep introducing YA unoriginal characters, to turn everything into a much blander epic fantasy and to concentrate on the flirting. She (the author) lost me completely half way through. Also, her unique choice to constantly use multiple POVs in the same scene/page was disconcerting and felt amateurish (I never met anything like this). I was really excited at the beginning of the book and increasingly disappointed as it moved on (into YA, esentially). I hope miss Kade will eventually move into fantasy for adults, cause I would certainly be a fan.
