I really did love the first 4 books. And while the editing was far better in this one than in "Found", the storyline was so screwed up that I had a hard time staying interested.The natural ending to the story was Rast and Nadiah on the way back from Tranq Prime, but that was half way through. Then it completely dissolved into a new storyline. Not to mention the intermingling of Lauren & Zairn's issues as well as Sophie's issue, which does end up being part of the ending. And the addition of Merrick, the hybrid Kindred and Elise, the AllFather's last victim.Some things made no sense, such as why the Goddess allowed the Head Priestess to be such a royal mean, ugly witch, cursing Merrick and almost murdering the Councilor's Lazel. She could have stopped it at any time.But - the best part... the most redeeming part of the whole thing was the last chapter where we got to meet Draven, head of the Hoard. He is such a suave, cocky, evil dude. Loved him. It is the one thing that is making me download the last book Pursued, as I don't care about Elise - though I do kind of like Merrick - but I can't wait to read more about Draven...If you love the Kindred, you will still want to read this book - I mean they are still Kindred (yum), but I think it is the weakest of them so far.
