For those who intend to continue to continue on with the Dark Hunters and plan to give this one a pass because it's YA about Nick as a kid, I would recommend you reconsider.

Really enjoyed seeing a different view of this world. Nick was always an interesting character.
It was hilarious! The main character is very sarcastic and has a great sense of humor!
