I liked the idea of Max temporarily joining the Time Police in a plot to finally capture Clive Ronan. It was good to see all the other St. Mary's characters more involved in the actual plot than in the first one and the Time Police parts were allright as well. As usual there was a lot going on - history wise - and I admit with all the uproar in that 16th century I lost the plot for a bit.
I sort of expected Ronan to get away in the end after all (there are still more books in the series) and at first I thought how it happened was a too easy way out. But in the grand scheme of things - timeline wise (his future self still had to do what he did in Max etc past) - it made sense.
Of course Leon saved the day family wise in the end. And Mikey and Adrian join St. Mary's. Yay!
