I thought it was average but readable enough to finish. I agree they're running out of ideas.

Interesting. I've been a big fan of theirs since Relic first came out back in the day. I loved the early stage of their career when it was a standalone books (even if an occasional character did cross over).

They totally lost me once it became the Pendergast series and he became this ridiculously omniscient cartoon of a super hero. There was that trilogy about his evil brother. After book two of that I just up on them completely.

The Nora Kelly stuff has got me reading them again. Even if this one was a bit more "out there," for me it didn't come anywhere close to the excesses of the Pendergast series.
