What an ending. I would recommend this series to anyone who loves both sci-fi and D&D.

Well done Mr. Lawrence! I felt like the characters were my friends and what a great way to wrap up the trilogy.

I enjoyed the first two novels much more, I felt the author was trying to do too much in too short a time (ho, ho)
Too many loose ends tied up in too short a time. It’s very readable and I liked the central conceit but it would have been better served by a couple of extra chapters, maybe even a couple of extra novels, to work out the wrinkles.

This takes my complaint about the second book and exacerbates it fully - this whole book is too much sci-fi word salad and not enough (barely at all) about the characters. Also, redoing the whole first book here is boring and tedious.

This was a digestible way of reading many different timelines. It definitely wrapped up the story but it made book 2 seem out of place. The memory fix and attitudes at the ending really took away the seriousness of the build up but it was a unique way you can mess with time. A good trilogy.

I was left somewhat unsatisfied by this ending. I will attempt not to spoiler it, but will probably fail. This trilogy was a fun sort of blend of sci-fi and D&D. Lawerence had some good thoughts about the nature of existence but ultimately this felt like a personal time travel game as if Lawrence was going to write a more ambitious trilogy (his specialty) in the future and wanted to try out some time travel ideas.
The time travel piece was seriously complicated and I sometimes got a bit lost but was mostly entertaining....all the way to the end where the conclusion was a bit too pat and not nearly as tragic as most of his other books. Sadly, it seems I need some sort of consequence to really feel satisfied.
It was typically good Lawrence writing but the plot and characters sort of lost their way by this book.

I loved this series. Really not what I thought I was getting into but they were great. I didn't give any of them a 5 because honestly it went over my head a little bit and I found myself not caring about the science but more about the characters.
I was very satisifed with this as an ending to the series.
