While this was a fun addition to the Edge universe, I'm not the biggest fan of how Kaldar is characterized. His lack of respect for clearly stated physical boundaries was not something that I necessarily enjoyed reading. I understand there is an appeal for some people, and it did fit his character in terms of aligning with his own self-interest outside of issues affecting his family, but the repeated violation of boundaries and Kaldar's falling into insta-love while doing so made this not my favorite book of the series. Which is sad, because I enjoyed his character when he was first introduced. I really enjoyed Jack and George in this book! The parts they played in the cult side quest was one of the highlights of the book.
