Disappointing. I enjoyed the first 3 books in the series but this one was a mess, lurching from repetitive battle, to repetitive battle with our characters running around aimlessly. In the first 3 books Tori (who is a PI) actually investigates matters in between action. Here she is just thrown into one battle after another with the various undead. And that was the other thing that REALLY annoyed me - zombies in a greek mythology novel. If you want to write a zombie novel, great - go write a zombie novel. Don't randomly throw them into a previously good series based on Greek mythology. The first 3 books dealt with Gods plotting and monsters from the Greek pantheon which is the premise for the whole series. Then to have a the God of plagues unleash a zombie plague - ridiculous. There are plenty of existing diseases which could have been unleashed. I'm not a fan of love triangles and it is even worse when both guys are great. No matter who the heroine ends up with you are disappointed. I don't know that I would bother reading any more in the series. The first 3 are good though.
