Hum, well, I wanted to find out what had happened to Gryphon, and I did. But ... the rest ... There were parts that I really enjoyed and parts that bugged me, taking up precious space in the book instead of adding more to the overall storyline (IMHO). Initially I thought, "cool, Netherhell ... interesting, kinda spooky", then "come on already" was all I could think while pushing through the pages. I did enjoy learning about the Gargoyles and thought parts of their storyline was interesting, but ....Dunno, just missing something for me in this one. Hopefully, Mona Lisa Eclipsing, will offer what this one lacked (not exactly sure what that was, but it was missin' somethin'). I am interested to see how things play out now that Mona Lisa's "whole" again.
