IowaHome said Enough already. I pre-ordered. I've told my friends that after investing 10 years of my life, and who knows how much $$ that I feel like I have to see this series through to the end.but at this point it's just painful.I'm not even really sure Janet wrote this book, it felt more like a ghost writer.

Neither story line is worth the price of the book. The Joe vs. Ranger thing continues, with no resolution in sight.The bones were there to have an excellent book but it was just not complet
