When I first read this book years ago I rated this a 5 out of 5. This time around I feel like it's only a 3 star. I loved Eve's personality and learning more about her. When the other characters mention her in future stories at least I will know who exactly they are talking about. Something I don't understand though is how the head of the Cabals are all turning out to be decent caring men who make bad choices. Cabals are like the mob, and I feel like the CEOs should be more arrogant and sketchy than they are turning out to be. As for the plot, it skipped around...a lot. Some parts were slow and there seemed to be extra fluff that could have been cut out, then there were parts like the last fifty page that kept me on the edge of my seat. I applaud Armstrong for trying to cover a difficult realm in her world, but there were some inconsistencies that confused me. Some examples would be how magic worked in different areas of the ghost world vs the real world, not to mention Eve's jaunt in one of the hell dimensions which apparently made her out to be bionic woman.
