Nothing Left to Lose by Dan Wells

5.0

This series has been one wicked story after another, and NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE was no exception. The story was as complex as they've all been, the twists surprising, the characters layered and the monstrosities/Withered creatively brought to life and explored. I always have a great time reading these books. John Cleaver is a spectacular urban fantasy "hero" and his journey has come so far and brought him so much development from the person he used to be. I love reading about his world and how he reacts to it almost as much as I love reading about the Withered and how they interact with the powers they've been given. The demons in this book were frightening to be sure, but I couldn't help but become invested with their stories and histories and at some points, even pity them. The ending wasn't as climactic as past novels have been, but it was nonetheless impactful, surprising, and quite emotional if I'm being honest. A great addition to what is truly a stellar series. I loved it!
