First let me say books 1-6 love them; but once you get to 7 it starts going down hill, then gets brained and chucked into a blackhole when we get to 9. For whatever reason Carver apparently killed 2/3 of his brain when he got drunk in book 7 because so much stupid shit happens in book 9 they actively chose wast 5hrs of run time. When this book started I assumed plan A was going to be, 1) assemble the counsel. 2) get Mizz back. 3) figure out a way to travel back through time. Long review shot, what happened to Barry for him to have wrote this crap, and why does Carver have the intelligence of a middle school drop out.
