Reviews

Well this was a lot more action packed than the last. Unfortunately I think I stopped caring at some point. The last third was a drag. Ning went from a strong resourceful character of the previous book to being relegated to background work. Ethan may as well have just called himself Alex Rider with all the shit he went through. And Ryan didn't really add much at all. Got a few passwords. Made a few calls. Nothing to write home about. It certainly wasn't like the original Cherub series where James or Lauren or that are actually doing stuff in the books. The relationship between Grace and Ryan was actually worse than the whole James/Kerry one. I honestly didn't think that was possible.

I'll read the next one. Because I'm so bloody close to being finished. But I think maybe Ning should have had her own mission and let the series wrap up. I won't rate it 1 star because I didn't hate the first two thirds, so I'm splitting the difference and leaving it at 2 stars.
