Stephanie's Review of Blood Of My Blood (I Hunt Killers, #3)

by Barry Lyga

Jasper Dent can’t escape his family. Wherever he goes, whatever he does, his father’s reputation hangs over him.

Because Billy Dent’s not like other dads. He’s a serial killer.

And now he’s got Jasper’s girlfriend in his clutches.

Billy must be stopped, against all the odds. Jasper knows he’s the only one who can do it, the only one smart enough and quick enough to find him.

After all, it’s in his blood.

I had been waiting on Blood of My Blood by Barry Lyga since I finished Game in the summer of 2013. Game left a big cliffhanger and I had to think on it before I remember where we left off. Blood of My Blood did not disappoint me.

I've become a little leery of the final installment of trilogies, a la Allegiant. Thankfully Lyga was uses the conclusion of his trilogy to answer burning questions. It's also a fast paced race to the end of the book. I had suspicions of who Ugly J really was. I was wrong and I had to keep guessing.

Along with fast paced actions and resolutions there was a lot of character growth. Jazz finally gets some of the answer he's been searching for and he uses those to define himself. There were a lot of times that I felt like cheering for Jasper, Connie and Howie. I love these characters and while I'm sad to not spend more time with them, I am more than satisfied with where I have left them.
