Witch and Wizard: The Kiss by James Patterson

I thought this series was finished and neatly wrapped up with the downfall of the evil dictator ruling this dystopian government.  In typical not-what-you-expect-from-him fashion, Mr. Patterson proved me wrong.  This book was an interesting way to go.  What happens after the overthrow of an evil ruler?  Will the new government be better than the last?  What if the people fall into their old patterns?

Whit and Wisty grow apart a bit in this novel, as siblings inevitably do.  Old characters make a comeback and some new ones add drama.  We explore the idea that a witch and wizard set to save the world may have been a different set of kids than we thought.

For writing the dystopian conclusion that needed to be written, for taking his series one step further than anyone else is taking similar books to, for surprising me with the new installment, for all those reasons and more this one is highly recommended.
