I read the third one before I read this one and I would say this one's better. Although it's much grislier, I do think the intensity is there more and you feel more like you're in it. I enjoyed all the descriptions and explanations of various investigative technologies. Though being a longtime fan of the show I'm still getting used to this version of Dr. Brennan, and also the books being set in Canada- I just have to say that Canada doesn't quite capture the imagination for me as much as DC. All in all, though, I'm looking forward to reading more of the series.
