" This is the third in the series and I must say really depressing. Who would want Zach or Cade's lives? I will use James Bond and an example, he's a spy always undercover, but he always gets the girl, has lots of money and drives fast cars. Now you have Zach who only gets pity sex, drives crappy cars and really kind of a loser because the only friend in his life would really rather eat him then talk to him. Cade's life or death is just as depressing since his true nature as a vampire is to murder indiscriminately and he's being reined in by a blood oath that tests his boundaries all the time. Then of course the blood oath that holds Cade is between he and the president and really would you want that much power in one persons hands because unlike nuclear weapons or declaring war the president doesn't need anyone's permission to use Cade. Farnsworth is keeping the reader guessing with this one since the ending was such a surprise and don't mean in a good way. "
