I have to say, I have to take back my initial trepidation about this book. It's really good, maybe amongst HT's best. I can't help but wonder where HT has been for the last six years or so. Seriously, this is probably his best book since before TWPE, anyway. It's very focused, using only two POVs, thus giving us a solid view of the inner workings of Steele's government, and how that government impacts the country. Repetition is at a minimum, characters have something akin to realistic conversations, and I cared about them very quickly. Moreover, HT didn't stick exclusively to the story as his blue print, making several changes in the novel that resulted in a more interesting and plausible work.

So, yeah, maybe Harry should give the series a rest.
