This is a terrific ending to the trilogy about teenage sociopath John Wayne Cleaver. The plot is interesting and as with the two previous books, what keeps the reader's interest is the fascinating insight into how this young man thinks. He's got all the psychological characteristics of a budding serial killer, yet he doesn't want to give into his inner Mr. Monster. In this case, he's tracking down not one, but TWO new serial killers striking his small town of Clayton, ND. The tension is terrific, and you can literally see him mature from a kid to a young man determined to blaze his own trail through life...even if it means making a friend of death. If you liked the first two books (#1: I AM NOT A SERIAL KILLER and #2: MR. MONSTER), you will love this finale to the tale. This final book in the John Cleaver series was nothing short of brilliant. It had much the same start as the previous books which isn't bad as those books were good as well but about the half way mark the author really started to break up the formula a bit and by the end of the novel it was almost impossible to guess what could possibly be coming next. One of the strengths of this series is that Dan Wells was brave enough to let his title character do the things that a sociopath might do but not the things that readers necessarily want their hero to to do. This book was no exception and the ending of the book was by far one of the bravest endings I have read in a long time and really made this trilogy stand out for me. Speaking of endings, in an article I read with Dan Wells the other day he said that the final book in the John Cleaver series was a definite ending and here I have to disagree, this was the most obvious set up for future novels that I have ever read. Leaving it there was like being a kid who was taken to a toy store window and being given a glimpse inside but never actually getting to go in and play with all the toys. It's quite frustrating to know that for now at least there will be no follow on novel. Still, that isn't really a flaw with this book just me wanting more and so I am happy to give this book five stars. The series as a whole took a bit of time to properly find its feet but once it got going it did a really good job. I think it is the sign of a good author when each book is better than the last and that was definitely the case here. Fare well John Cleaver, I hope to see more of you in the future.
