YAAbandon series.
In this final entry, Pierce's boyfriend John (who's also a "death deity" in charge of the Underworld) dies--or does he? To save him, Pierce returns to Isla Huesos, where Furies mean harm to her and her friends. Pierce's meandering, casual narration is occasionally trying but mostly entertaining; fans will miss her, John, and the rest of the colorful cast.
