The ending made up for any moments in this book where I was mocking the writing. The books are written the same way they were when they first came out, but I'm not twelve anymore, and so some of the styles annoy me a little. That said, this is one of maybe three young teen book series I have actually enjoyed, and the story just took a turn I was certainly not expecting.

"Michael and the Electroclan embark on their deadliest mission yet. The head of the resistance, known only as the voice, believes that the best way to wipe out the Elgen is to steal their money. That means capturing the Joule, the Elgen boat that serves as a floating treasury. Michael and his friends have learned about a highly placed member of the Elite Global Guard named Welch who wants to defect. They also know that three of the Elgen electric youth have been condemned to death. If the Electroclan can rescue them and get to Welch first, they just might be able to steal the Joule.

On the other hand, how on earth has Hatch not already been overthrown by his people when he leads like he does? He basically "makes an example" of everyone who looks at him the wrong way. I'm not sure it would be as easy as it's portrayed here to keep the loyalty of as many subordinates as Hatch does. But I've said since book #2 that Evans has made his villain so over-the-top evil that it's a little disturbing, and that hasn't lessened...only worsened, really. On top of that, these "good guy" kids are starting to get way too cavalier about killing anyone that does them wrong in the slightest bit, which bugs me a little, especially in a YA series. There's also an over-abundance of random thug-type characters (gang members, elk hunters) that are way too quick to jump to violence and even murder as well.
I think that what I'm realizing is that I'm just not a fan of Evans's writing, and I will most likely never re-read this series, yet there is enough intrigue in the overall plot that I want to see it through. So that's something, even though I usually have more complaints than compliments. And though this review may not seem like a 4-star review, I felt like even 3.5 was just too low for what I thought of the book in the end. It's the highest rated book in the series, which I suspect has something to do with the ending. ( )
