Gary, aka Merciless, has woken up in a community of brainwashed people but with the help of Nightgirl he escapes. Other Gary is using his powers to rule Gary’s home place. It’s, once again, up to Merciless and cohorts to save the world, but by doing so they may have to become something they never wanted to be!!

OK so this is book 4 and by now you would think that the story has slowed down and become stagnant, but not so!! This is just as fast paced and entertaining as the other ones. It’s also a little darker and a little more serious, but still has the wit and geekiness that I’ve come to expect from these books. The writing flows well and the story is exciting, intriguing and as well written as ever.

The characters that we’ve come to love are all present here, plus we get a new addition that you just know is going to be amazing!!! Gizmo has all the traits of her mom and dad and I loved her character. I can’t wait to see what she will be like.

It’s getting hard to write reviews for this series because I feel like I’m repeating everything I’ve said before!! I love this series and this author and highly recommend everything he writes. Can’t wait for the next one.

Jeffrey Kafer is one of the best in the business. He makes for a perfect Merciless because he can bring across his snarky manner perfectly and has a strong grasp on using the right inflection at the right time. Brilliant.
