I liked this book better than the first three. I think that's because this book is more straightforward and less supernatural. The story was outlandish, but that is normal for this series and not a negative. The plot moved well and the action kept going.
I did have some issues with the characterization of the twins. I can see where the author is going, but they felt so fake for much of the book. By the end, either they were coming across more human, or I was used to the way he is writing them.
SPOILER
I did have a real problem with Norbert's relationship with the twins. Yes, they are legal adults, but they come across too sheltered. They are not mentally challenged, but are emotionally challenged, and their sexual relationship - both of them together - felt almost abusive. Yes, the author has them make the first move, but it is more like a young teenager than adults.
