I just love series and this is one of the best crafted I've read. Rarely, I'll write a review, only if moved by the work, positively or negatively. So it has to have gotten to me and that, even when you do not like the work is good writing.I like this work very much as a stand alone and as one in the series.Dylan is the character in this novel that especially enriches this story and the series as a whole. Malic, the other excellent protagonist is superb as well - but somewhat expected, while Dylan is a welcome surprise. Especially considering the match up of these two. Malic grows in this relationship in delightful ways he would not have left unexposed to Dylan. Dylan could easily be seen as an airhead, an almost Twink-like character.  But his actions prove his dedication, consistency, maturity and patience while Malic's show that even though he is older, he is not wiser, that he has closed down and shut himself off from much of anything outside his two kinds of work. He is Joyless, cannot even see what a gift he is to the world. Dylan rushes in, a person whose engery seems fueled by Joy, and instantly knows where his Home is. How they arrive there together is a wonderful read.
