This second series feels a lot more cohesive and together than the first series, possibly because it's characters and a storyline we now know quite well. The plot itself is great- sticking with what we know and trying to prevent another apocalypse. At first I was sceptical that they'd split the siblings up, but actually this works really well as it gives each of them an interesting separate story. The formula of this series is pretty much the same as the first, but that isn't a problem because it works really well. It has a killer soundtrack and the script is very witty and at times hilarious. There are some brilliantly humorous lines in this that had me laughing out loud on many occasions.
Again, there are some characters that excel over others - Five, Klaus and Diego are by far my favourites and they get some absolutely brilliant lines and scenes. That said, the rest of the characters are likeable and good. Even Vanya won me over this time now she's no longer the whiny person she was at the start of the first series. The Swedes too are wonderfully wacky.
The whole series is just fantastic. From the impressive fight scenes to the gore and special effects and the fitting soundtrack (even managing to fit in the Backstreet Boys - genius), I enjoyed this from start to finish. The ending definitely sets this up (quite funnily so) for another series and I really can't wait to see it.

Secrets and betrayal, it's still going down and Franky is still in the middle of it. You see less of other characters in this one as Franky, Zoltan, and Soren take the lead. Zoltan is still growly and grumbly and Soren is still a pain in the ass (Franky's words, not mine).
Reading this book makes me think of what it must be like travelling by tornado. You are whipped around from place to place, never knowing what will happen when your feet touch the ground. Poor Franky. Although I like reading about it, to live your life that way must be exhausting. No wonder she wanted to sleep!
I have loved this series and am sad to see it come to an end. I really need to know about Fenrir and Myst, plus Leo. I found it a tad upsetting that the gang has split up but that just gives me more reasons to hound Ms. Daniels into follow up stories.
A brilliant end to the series that I highly recommend - but just remember to keep your mitts off Tenebris and Zoltan! Yes, I am greedy and I don't share! 😉🤣
One final thought just because I can - oh, Daren!!!
