Good start. I hope this is a new series? Lots of groundwork gets laid in this book so don't expect the typical crazy creature feature action you get from Cole. However, that being said, this book still has some good action and some fantastic new creatures for you regardless. I like the characters so far. Cole has always has great characters, good and bad. Here, we are learning which is which as we arrive on World Two (you'll figure it out). Anywho, excited about the potential for serious new bad ass creatures in the Blackout Hills. So much to look forward to, right Michael? There will be a next book in the series soon? Please. In the meantime, I highly recommend this book. Enjoy!
