Comments:
I was reading this series one after the other in a whirl so to some extent they have become blurred together in my mind. I have to admit I was a bit startled and even somewhat offended by the portrayal of Christianity and Jesus in Hexed. The portrayal may fit some, but not myself or my beliefs. The lumping together bothered me. But moving beyond that I continued to enjoy the series. Atticus makes some stupid decisions in Hammered. He seems to become further and further embroiled in a mess as his story makes its way through Tricked. So I was startled when, in Trapped, time had jumped 12 years. I realized I had missed something very important and backtracked to the novella Two Ravens and One Crow. There are short stories that I missed that belong within this timeline, but apparently they aren't as vital to the story. The novella in question is important though, and you don't want to miss it. Once I had read it I moved back into Trapped where the consequences of Atticus's decisions and choices become more glaringly obvious. But there is no choice now but to keep moving.
I have not moved on with the series yet because Hunted was not readily available, but I look forward to reading both it and Shattered.
