I enjoy this series as a whole, it has a new and interesting take on the old skinwalker ideology and all the trappings of a good urban fantasy. The writing is irreverent and the lead just as much so, and I love a little snark in any unlikeley/unwilling hero. I think that the tone of Jane's "voice" is far more reasonable than some other characters I've read, except in the areas of personal relationships and responsibilities. The views are skewed harshly in those two areas, and while her past makes a lot of that reasonable, it can be a bit weighing on the reader to see her constantly taking the blame on herself for the actions of others. Another area where this character is lacking, in my opinion, is her nature to allow others to escape responsibility for their actions and numerous infractions against her. Rick is a perfect example of that. He trampled her heart and emotions from the very beginning. He used her in every way possible and then he betrayed her in nearly every way a man can, yet she forgives and excuses his actions repeatedly. In the end he swore to have learned his lesson about womanizing at least twice that I know of, once when he received his spelled tats, and once when he became a were. Moreover he swore that he was not going to betray her again, yet he dropped her like she meant nothing in a very public forum. I am hoping that she has learned to choose better company in the future. Bruiser and even Leo would have been better choices for her, at least they were both honest about their offerings and limitations. As to Rick, I literally despise him as a character. He has only one redeeming quality, that he is/was dedicated to being a LEO, but that is redeeming in only a very limited way; after all he was willing to interrogate a small child in the guise of friendship, which is completely despicable. He is amoral, selfish, rude, and has an ugly soul. I hope he suffers in the new series, long and hard, because he uses and betrays the trust of everyone he meets and deserves to reap the rewards of that behavior. I won't find out if he gets what he deserves because I refuse to read a series where he features prominently, but I can hope that some justice is served. If he shows back up in this series I hope Bruiser delivers on the unspoken threats that have loomed between them since the beginning. I was hoping Jane would have a little romance this book but no such luck. She did go through quite a catharsis as did some of the others that I was not disappointed. So many changes took place and really in my opinion most for the better. I won't give any spoilers but now I really want to read the next book and don't want to wait a year! sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
