  I absolutely love the main character in this series, Tempe Brennan, a forensic anthropologist. And I'm growing to like some of the other side characters in the series.

Even so, the characters made up for it. The story was good - especially the last quarter or so - very exciting. While I wish she'd tone down the gory details, I will almost certainly continue the series.
