Again, I'm not really sure why I'm so into these books but I've been absolutely tearing through them recently. I think it might have actually even gotten me out of my end of the year slump. Anyway, definitely a good conclusion to the first arc of the series. Usually I don't like books where the series is kind of just one long book stretched out over several books but I definitely feel that way about the first three in this series. It works better than it usually would because there are so many characters and POV though I think.

Loved that Erika had a larger part in this one and I appreciate that we get so much more of her POV than Victor's because it takes what is a dicey situation with the particular abuse she suffers from him and gives her more agency in the narrative. Also a bit more Deucalion in this one so I'm always happy with that! This one definitely got a bit more off-book with the creatures that showed up and had more of a prominent sci-fi feel than the earlier books as well. Wouldn't have thought I would enjoy this series so much but I'm definitely loving it so far.

Jordan Morrell I feel the exact same way! I tore through these books and honestly they are not the type I usually read. I have really enjoyed them though!
