Could not put this down and a great improvement from length of the 5th novel in the series. Much less going on and much more to the point. #3 is still my favourite book but this would be a close second! Dark, witty and fairly fast paced, your left with thrills and hangers but they are resolved within a reasonable amount of time. The dashes of romance and humour add to a very gritty addition to the series. I cant wait to finish the final book.
