My Review

I've shied away from books that are part of a series, either because I'd be picking up between books or I'be had a hard time getting invested in the story. By with Robert's book Dark Water, I didn't get any of those feels. In fact, I'd even go as far as to say that I could see myself reading books 1 & 2 and waiting patiently or not so patiently for the 4th book to get released.

With the characters feeling real it's hard not feel like your involved in their plight and although I wouldn't say I like them, I definitely felt invested in their fate.
