Mehso-so

Dox was the the main thing that saved this book for me. His sense of humor, the way he handled himself under unimaginable pressure...it was perfect for his character. Mopey John was no fun to read. He made his choices but couldn't seem to deal with the repercussions of them, and that was disappointing. I personally thought the stunt Delilah pulled in the last book was unforgivable, so why is he still hanging around with her? 3 out of 5 stars.
