Oh my goodness, glad to have finished this book. It was sad that I continued listening hoping for some sort of reason to have sat through this book, but it never came. The trials CJ went through in the second half of the book were almost silly and completely predictable with how zany they were. This was such a let-down. I feel the book was overly violent for no real reason, there were moments where I had to step away from it due to the description of some of the attacks. Wow...

DNF @ 50% No, I just can't. This reads like Jurassic Park fan fiction, with all the usual tropes - beautiful yet damaged (only slightly) heroine who somehow manages to pull an Indiana Jones and saves her little party from some ferocious creatures hell bent on human blood. There is zero character development, dialogue reads like a very cheesy movie script and the story line is basically the same scene on repeat. Dragon-EEk-RUN-Fight/Hide-Phew-that was a close one! Oh dear Mr X didn't make it (insert cheesy throwaway line here).

Very one dimensional - very not for me. But hey, I don't think Mr. Reilly cares too much what I think, he sells and laughs all the way to the bank. And good for him i say...
