Can this series get better? Deeper?

These books are about human relationships and growth, shedding our past and coming to terms with it all through the psyche of our resident lovable malcontent Victor Bayne. Vic & Jacob head out to California to locate a missing Lisa and this provides Vic another opportunity to come face to face with his past in the form of Faun Windsong and much like the previous book this one is about memory and who we were and who we've become. What we've left behind and what it has cost us. Who or what we could've been if only this or that had been different.Like in every book we also have Vic coming further into his power and I think that this is happening incrementally as Vic comes to feel more confident in himself partly due to being loved by Jacob and being able to see that love as a manifest thing and to slowly feel a certain level of comfort in this new family he forms part of, Jacob's family, but also Lisa, Jacob, Zig and Crash that annoying gnat who keeps him on his toes. We also get to see different sides of Jacob. The insecure parts that his conscious self hides behind a sheen of smooth and the one excited by becoming aware of his heretofore unknown abilities. He is already officially enshrined as one of the best book boyfriends ever. Who else would watch and protect your physical body while you do astral projection with unbreakable red energy that emanates from his soul?Here is where I'm sure to land in the minority but I absolutely dug Constantine Dreyfus and the voice of Moe from The Simpson's that [a:Gomez Pugh 8435087 Gomez Pugh https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png] gives him. Sure he is a government spook, keeping his cards close to the vest but I've always been a fan of the Devil you know and most of the stuff he is laying out for Vic are true and practical. The thing is is that our boy Vic, under the blank stare, aversion to touching, and sarcasm is a deeply romantic and moral creature. Here's hoping his ever expanding powers, among them his and Jacob's deepening love, keeps him safe in the wider world he's wading into.Love, love, love this series and the narration by [a:Gomez Pugh 8435087 Gomez Pugh https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png] is worth any price.
