Sins of the Father is Reid's second book in the Logan Falcone series, and it's even better than the first.

The action starts straight away and doesn't let up until the very end of the novel. The are multiple characters POVs, and quite a number of new characters this time around. As I've said in previous reviews, Reid writes characters exceptionally well, and this book showcases that talent. Whether it's a young boy in Yemen, a reclusive CIA agent, or a group of Navy SEALS, Reid creates characters you care about, and that is essential to any good story. He also writes complex villains, and deftly manages to play with the reader's emotions regarding honor and loyalty. The action is fun and kept me turning pages, but the characters are what makes this an exceptional thriller. When lives are in danger, you care.
Not only that, but Reid sincerely managed to surprise me a few times, and at some points had me questioning the intentions of so many characters. Page after page of intense action, fantastic character development, and a few unexpected twists makes this military thriller a great read from start to finish.

This series deserves 5 stars for the art alone, but the story is good too. This is such an interesting take on Stoker's Dracula. It's exquisite. This series deserves 5 stars for the art alone, but the story is good too. This is such an interesting take on Stoker's Dracula. It's exquisite. ...more

It pains me to say this, but I think this final arc is unnecessary.

Tokyo Revengers was one of the first manga that I got really excited about. I think the first 3 that I started reading as a series were Demon Slayer, JJK, and TR. I absolutely adore this story, (I mean, time travel stories will always be near and dear to my heart), but the characters in this series are some of my favorites in manga and anime. However, I just really feel like this story should have ended with the previous arc.
We now have a whole cast of new characters, and trust me when I say it's so hard to keep up when most of them are suddenly introduced all at the same time. And all of these characters are brought in because everyone in the original arc has basically moved on, and Takemitchy doesn't want to drag them all into another conflict. If this series had ended with everyone being happy and opening the time capsule 12 years later, I think this would have gone out on a lot stronger of an ending....more

Every single page is just oozing summer horror nostalgia vibes, and it is absolutely sublime. I adore the art. I adore the world. I adore the characters. Every volume totally immerses me in the story, and it's almost like I can feel the summer heat and hear the cicadas on every single page. If you want quiet cosmic horror in a wonderful summer coming of age story, look no further. This series is special and near to my heart....more
