Redemption (Alchemy, #4)

** spoiler alert **
I've taken some time after I finnished this to think about what I thought, to give it a fair review.
For me, book #4, Redemption, was more like book #2 on my "fantasy scale".
I prefer PNR (what I define as PNR). IMO, this serie is a mix of PNR and fantasy (again, what I define these as. Not sure if the experts define it the same way) For me the serie has had pieces of both, and sometimes it has been to much fantasy for my taste. I've continued Reading because I liked the writing and the pnr in the books. The serie is a good serie, no doubt about that, but since I am not the biggest fantasy fan, and book #4 was more fantasy-ish than the others, I only rate it 3. It was too much for me with the owls and the people who changed into a melting pot of colors and creatures. Also, the highlight of the book came and went way to fast (Senators death).
I would've wished for one or two bi-stories in the last book. You only get a small taste of the other characters, and I wanted more.(I'm book-spoiled, what can I say?) The book started getting really good at the point where Cormac returns. Not because I'm a "I'd drop my panties in one second if I saw Cormac"-girl,although I am, but because that was simply the turning point in the book for me.
I still can't get over how damn surprising it all started, with the headshot in book 1.
