I really enjoyed this new foray into the world of Death Cast - and for a while there, I was very worried about ethics and how far things could / should be taken in that universe.
I did kind of wish we'd get some more information about how Death Cast knows what they know, but maybe that'll be part of a future book?
I enjoyed the fact that we met with both Rufus and Mateo here, where they were younger, and still had family around to be a part of their lives.
Valentino and Orion were both strong characters in different ways, and it was great to see what they decided to do in order for the first ever decker to have a fantastic end day.

It's complicated. It's a good book but I didn't like it. Like well written interesting story all that. I just wanted it over with. The characters felt whiny and drama-queen-ish. I wish I liked it more the premise is so cool
