Review: Exciting, but more questions than answers

I read this just about straight-through. It was engaging, and kept you turning each page. We have all our familiar characters (though some of them have less screen-time than others) and get introduced to a new one. We see some of what happens between Declan and Lex.I took off one point for two reasons. First, the book has no ending. I think that books as part of a series have to have some sort of conclusiveness about them, even if the next book is being setup. This one just ends, so that you turn the page, and you're like- where's the rest of the story? It seems like the 2nd arc of the book didn't get finished.That's upsetting, because I think it could have been fit into the 2nd book. Though every page was exciting, in looking back on the whole book at the end, I see that not much happened. I could probably completely sum up the entire book up in about 4 sentences. I hope that the next book has the fat trimmed and more packed in.Second, none of the questions posed by the first book were answered. You are given a tidbit at the very end (like the last page). In addition, more questions are brought up. I've feel like I've been reading for a while now, and should at least get something answered. Oh, well.Otherwise, very good. Looking forward to the next one.
