I was very excited when my library got this latest book in the series. Then, I read it.
I get that "bottle" episodes can be cool, but after spending half of the book in a single room, I was ready to put it down. Except that I still had hope for the ending. So, I plowed on.
Sure, progress was made

on some low-priority (to me) aspects of the overall story. They could've been bigger developments...as an indie author, though, I call "plot device:" something happened just so something would happen. Barring a spoiler, that's as specific as I can get. I'd be a lot less ticked if I didn't also get the feeling it's a feint to throw us off, make for a big surprise in the next book.
Anyway. I didn't enjoy this installment. The bad guys got worse. The good guys are still getting dressed in the dark, so to speak. Etc. Etc.
