ITS GONE SO DARK!! I mean like WOW really really dark! So it starts with the servants protecting the manor and you see that they are not useless cooks/cleaners/gardeners but they are actually bad ass fighters! They kill everyone in like 10 minutes!!Back with Ciel and Sebastian and if got a bit confused with Ciel's past and what happened to him and the other children before Sebastian rescued him (when they first met)But back in the present Sebastian kills everyone and then Ciel orders him to burn down the manor which would kill all the children there! WTF?!? I mean I get that the children are beyond help because of the things they have been through but I couldn't help thinking that they could get some help. Then to make the story even darker Ciel and Sebastian visit the orphanage where the members if the circus came from. When they find it destroyed Ciel p*sses himself laughing because everyone died for nothing. WHAT!But I really liked this story :) In this book you get to see Ciel's and Sebastian's really close relationship (when Ciel gets sick and when having flashbacks of the mark of the beast), and you get to see more of what exactly happened to Ciel when being sacrificed in the ritual and when he called upon Sebastian. Also one last thing, the phantomhive's servants kicking ass was pretty awesome. NOW, THAT LAST CHAPTER HAD ME LAUGHING SO HARD :) that chapter was the best.
I wanted to try and understand Ciel, but he really proved himself off his rocker this time around.

It was very funny at one part, and I think people should read the Black Butler

This volume was a little inconsistent, but it was still an action packed read.
