Well, she does it again. 
 Another instalment in the Hunter series, this novel stands to help flesh out the nature of the crisis and some of the more interesting characters. Joy is now an Elite Hunter, and she spends her time not actually hunting learning from and interacting with the other Elites. 
 I will say, Joy gets a little whiney here. Not terrible, but there are a couple parts where I was relieved that her breakdowns were so short. They aren't over the unimaginable stress of having the lives of thousands depend on her, or on the insurmountable odds she continually faces... its over small things that I was always surprised by. 
 Can't wait for vol 3!
