Anti-climatic is all I have to say. I am starting to wonder if I am too critical in the books I read. I guess that means if I like a book then it really is good. The major antagonist from the series is now gone, this means there is a vacuum in the story that was not filled well in this book. That is a problem that most series authors seem to run in to. Once the original story ends, because it eventually has to, its hard to recover the series. You have the bickering between the men and the murder story for drama. Due to the previous gore filled hatefulness in Merry's life this plot just wasn't enough for a good book. I keep waiting for a big twist and it never came. There was a cool little twist with the men that Merry saved in the previous book but that was the high point. Looks like the Goddess in keeping her promise. I am hoping that the book that is released in June will fix the major problem that I had with this book. If not I may have to bid adieu to Merry and her babies. She is still only like 2 months pregnant she has many months to go and I want to see them, but not bad enough to buy/read 3 or 4 badly put together books. Not to mention the wait time between books is 2 years.
