Review of advance copy received from Netgalley

Shattered Glory has got to be the best book in the series yet. The stakes are high and the action is non stop and never ending. From Marks escape from the lab in the prior book to a showdown with Maestro, to a city overrun. The action never relents. I absolutely loved this installment and how it sets up a massive ending. This series has quickly become one of my favorites and I hope it actually lasts longer than 6 books or gets a spin off following the events of book 6. This was such an easy and fun read, that had me glued at every stop.

An amazing continuation of the series. Seth Ring does not disappoint.

He weaves an amazing story, bringing everything that’s been set up from the first four books together. Everything clicks and hits just right.

I’m excited and scared for the next and final book as I’m not ready for the series to end.

I can't get enough of this series and this book, like the others, was excellent. It is packed full of action and lots of storylines are being tied together. I especially love the interactions between Mime and Mark; their relationship is explained satisfactorily in this volume. Any future installment will be on my to read list.

I received this book as an ARC from NetGalley in return for an honest review.
