I'm rereading the first four in the series in anticipation of the fifth, and final book, which just came out. I'm really enjoying them all over again, and while I don't really feel like I'm seeing things I missed before, I do feel like my original feelings of the characters are being reinforced. Mac can be intensely annoying and Barrons is frustrating, but I like how she's changed and I'm still rooting for him instead of V'lane. Can't wait to finish the story - I'm really hoping it's not a big diappointment.
