Wonderful repeat characters that are in all/many of Green's series stopped by to say hello in this book. What a treat!

I finally figured it out. These should be short stories. There are literally three separate stories in this book and by the middle of the third one, I just didn't care.

The Drood books are all about describing things that are literally described as unimaginable and telling us what Eddie is feeling (and how he's always right and always good). Dialogue is scarce. So it's really just like a self-righteous, teenager's self absorbed diary. But I guess they finish soon, so I'll finish the series.

A little thin on plot more on reminiscence of an newly departed character

Empowered by a golden suit made of strange matter, powered by Ethel, the otherworldly entity who lives at Drood Hall, Eddie strides through worlds and dimensions, protecting humans. Now, he wants to find his parents who disappeared years ago, leaving him alone. Accompanied by his lady love, Molly Metcalfe, the Wild Witch of the Wood, Eddie gets involved in the Great Game, created by the Powers that Be.
