I am don't know how to review books anymore so I'm just going to put comments. I feel like being more neutral. I feel like if I had re read the trilogy before reading this one it would of helped a little but then again maybe not. There is a very, very different tone to this one from the first 3 books. I honestly am not sure yet how I feel about it. I had a fun time reading it. I thought the male protagonists were MALE protagonists to the MAX, like I thought the author was almost doing some kind of joke on the reader. I thought this had to be clever. Like mocking the MALE protagonists of all MALE protagonists in capital letters MALE. It had to have been a feminist joke. And I found it very funny. But I am again feeling like no one else got the "joke" or that I am just a weirdo wanting to see that the author doing something clever that maybe wasn't. But if it wasn't cleverness than these were the most silly, ridiculous, trope male characters ever written and just why?

I remember not enjoying this one as much as others in the series when I first read it when I was a teenager and I can't remember why because I had a great time reading this now decades later. Some of the ideas brought up in this book are very interesting and philosophical about men and women and violence and I think I may have not been able to process all of it at 15. I'm also glad that I had forgotten how the book ended so I was swept up in the tension building to the epic grand finale. Overall just a good fun time.
