Review: Read the first, WAITED FOREVER for a bad sequel.

After waiting a ridiculous amount of time for this to finally be published, I was very disappointed. Instead of enhancing the foundation of the first book, it really felt like a choppy stumbling leveling off. Some of the ideas were great, like making the blood brothers from a broken crimson twin. although, hey, If there's only one left intact it's not exactly a twin anymore, is it? It really felt like Alex for the most part, took a backseat on being a badass unless it was hulksmash tattoo mania time.Opening with the lamia was cool, the twist with Sophia wasn't a bad way to go. Overall after about a third of the way thru it began to feel robotic and choppy. I didn't feel drawn into the story, and the Wendigos? seriously? going from the razors edge of failure against other obstacles and then manages to wipe out a troop of wendigos that CAUGHT and Landed on the concord? Yeah.right. I really regret the impatient wait for this book, and I'm thankful I bought it on Kindle for the cheap price vs paperback. I would definitely not recomend buying this book to anyone.
