Not as epic as Roadkill but still an awesome entry in the Cal Leandros series. I love Cal. An entire book could be about him wandering New York for a day and I'd gobble it all up.

Seeing Cal take stock of his life was really interesting, until it got a little repetitive after half the book had gone by. I know it's realistic that he'd go around in circles trying to figure out his life this way, but at the same time, I was itching for Cal to be back to one hundred percent. And when he finally was, it was quite glorious.

I'm not sure what I thought about the epilogue.

Spoiler

It seemed like Thurman threw that in to make sense of What's-Her-Name constantly asking about Cal's brothers and sisters, which could easily have been fixed up by Cal explaining how Team Leandros killed all the Auphe. Instead we get a creepy epilogue that feels like it's trying to keep the Auphe mystique alive when you don't need that at all, not with Cal's Auphe side constantly growing and evolving the way it does.

But anyway. A great read and 3.5 stars.
