I can see how Shannon has matured as an author. I really enjoyed this book when it first came out but this story feels a bit more clunky on a reread.  The love story and Paige's misunderstood teen attitude are a little overdone. That being said- I still really enjoy this fast-paced adventure through London and Sheol 1. The variety of clairvoyants is so fun and I love the chart in the physical books. Whenever the next book in this series comes out I listen to all the books over again on audible - the narrator is excellent.
