Il difetto più grande di questo romanzo è sicuramente la storia d’amore tra Cait e Duke, che – boh – non si capisce bene come cominci, perché prosegua o come finisca. Comunque, penso di essere contenta che le vicende che riguardano Jim, Adrian e Devina occupino più spazio del nonsense amoroso di questa coppia.

Duke è praticamente uno scimmione: parla poco, scopa tanto, non ha uno scopo nella vita a parte comportarsi in maniera tossica nei confronti di una ex e lavora alle dipendenze di Xhex (che è il suo unico pregio, e solo perché così Ward ci può regalare una scenetta tra lei e John Matthew). Dall’altro lato, Cait è un personaggio parimenti dimenticabile, alle prese con questo triangolo amoroso, che, come al solito, si sa già dove andrà a parare e fa venire sonno non appena si scopre che c’è. Dai, Zia Ward, sai fare meglio di così…

Infatti, la parte interessante riguarda Jim e Adrian. Jim passerà davvero dei brutti quarti d’ora in Possession, in accordo con la spirale discendente che ha preso da diversi libri a questa parte. Adrian continua a essere un tesoro e in alcuni momenti avrei voluto urlare a Jim di apprezzarlo di più: che diamine deve fare di più perché venga tenuto più in considerazione? Oh, Jim, magari se ti confidavi con lui, ti diceva subito che stavi per fare una boiata…

Infine, la storia ha preso una piega decisamente interessante, sebbene non inaspettata (anche se su Nigel devo dire di essere stata presa in castagna…): sono molto curiosa di leggere come tutto si concluderà in Immortal… ( )

Two things first, what is up with that house? And second who was that janitor? Pretty good book. I really hate Davina. ( )

Lord have mercy I just had a
'BOOK ORGASM'!! ( )

It might be the audiobook format, which had me listening to it in chunks over a few weeks, but this never sucked me in. I think it's more likely that I am losing interest in this series (the BDB has jumped the shark for me, too). I'll still check out the next one, but this was, like, 80% sex and 19% people being stupid as shit when they should just communicate. ( )

The series goes like this;
Heaven and Hell make a deal because someone got bored. Seven souls go into play to see if Team Heaven or Team Hell can win their souls. The first team to get to four wins gets the prize. I'd say this is unreal and God would never do this but I've read Job. The rules seem unfair and Hell's team which basically consists of Devina, has the advantage because she has all kinds of neat powers and she gets to know exactly who the soul is that they are trying to win. Team Heaven has a lot of players but they basically all suck and either don't have any special powers or don't know they have them and they don't know the rules very well. They also have to guess at who the soul is so they are always at a disadvantage.
This is by far the worst book in the series. By the end of this book, I absolutely hated Jim, the so called "Savior". SPOILER alert... He gets Sissy out of Devina's vault for selfish reasons and not because he is worried about her soul. He wants to jump her virgin bones because he's a pig and he only thinks with his wee wee.
Thank goodness for Adrian trying to keep up with the targeted soul and keeping Sissy company. I'd like to see them two get together. Let Jim go do Nigel's job. It would serve him right for eternity. Oh, and talk about SELFISH,Nigel gets that award. What was with that?
Cait and Duke's romance was one of the only things that saved the book. I liked their story.
The other thing that saved the book was Devina. I'm kind of liking her.
She's everything vile wrapped up in a pretty package. Jim keeps doing her so he must not care what she really looks like.
Hopefully, Team Heaven gets their act together in the next book. ( )
