I liked this story, but my overall opinion on the series is that the subject is too dark and the violence too much for the apparent target audience of middle school students. The second book even introduces a villain that kills his own friend for sport around that tender age. The first book is fun if a little dark, but it just feels too much. Unfortunately so, because the characters have a lot of potential and it is nice to see both a male and female hero work together.
