This book is a really good addition to the series filled with action and excitement that makes it impossible to put down. Sadly though its repetitive as all get out if you like reading books where you know what’s going to happen before, before it happens then by all means go ahead and read the series they are really well written and fun to read but if you enjoy variation in the books you read don’t bother with these books.

I've heard of this series and I like the premise you laid out. However, the repetition sounds boring - even with all the action.
