This is not a bad book. But being the sequel of The Witching Hour, which was a masterpiece, it definitely doesn't stand up to expectations. The first 2/3 of the book are actually good, the story continues and you are eager to see how it will develop. But the final part, where Lasher talks about his previous life, is incredibly boring. It might have been interesting if it wasn't so long, because it does give you insights on who he really is and sort of gives a different perspective to a character you thought you had pretty much figured out; but it's way too long and descriptive and it loses impact, so the reader is no longer thrilled to know what really happened, but merely wants to "get to the point".
