This follow-up installment is as bad as the first book is good. The plot is semi-intelligible and ridiculous, the characters, particularly Benny are inconsistent and enbelievable even as charactures, the romantic element is completely forced, and Thorn seems like a different guy from the first book. I was committed to the series after the 1st and am questioning whether to read another after the 2nd. Really falls down.
great read
