Okay. Nox now has a very special place in my heart. As the daughter of a CSA survivor, my heart broke when his story was shared with Oli, and everything about his character makes sense and its well developed. I feel as though it would have benefitted if only Oli & the Dravens had the “extra” abilities, but I also think the series could have been condensed into 3-4 books.

This is definitely the book where it all has thickened. The plot is gearing up for that final book. The character development and relationships have begun and mostly solidified, its all coming together!
