the whole series is brilliant i actually finished reading tboj within 24 hours of it being available on lulu (i don't know how to rashon the good stuff) i just never post but.
In my opinion darien is still the best and his vulnaribility makes him more appealing.
although matthew is a very close second(sorry i can't call him edward)
as for villain's the gn-3's, i can't wait to see more of them.
