One long day
A non-stop ride of a book. The is in chaos. This makes Gotham City look like Metropolis. With everything that is going on, it makes this book feel rushed, not really leaving time to process anything.
It is election day. Who will be the Sheriff of Nottingham? Every dirty trick will be used, and the Rebels and the establishment will have to fight with everything they have. There is also the moral dilemma for Robin, facing the accusations of the family of prison guard he was forced to kill. However, with everything going on, will he have a chance to process it?
Interesting things are ahead for Robin and the Rebels going forward. They have more powerful enemies. Could they have an ally as well?

This series is so much fun, my inner child absolutely loves it. Book 8 is my favourite entry so far: a rollicking election day special with major Season Finale Vibes.
