Blech.

The writing hasn't improved from the first three books, so I won't go into how much I hate it (already have!). The characters are still so one-dimensional. And our main character died and we had closure in book #3, so WHY do we have to have a fourth book? It reminded me of an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer in that the characters continue to battle demons and vamps and whatnot, but no one was half as interesting or fun as in BtVS.

Anyway, I have a lot of complaints about the book, but I'm too tired to actually write them. So I'll stick with this: The book sucks. So does the series. Don't read it. It's not worth it and I think it actually kills brain cells.
