This gripping, final release of the series that started with The Giver. A story that is neither wanted nor needed, but seems made to actually finish the other two books and give them a place in the same universe as The Giver despite being completely different.

However Lois Lowry does such with aplomb in her writing. The language is crisp and clear as the original Giver despite the 20 year difference between the two books.

Como final de la saga a mi me había dejado bastante fría. Sí, me gustaba que pillaba un personaje del primer libro, te recordaba ese mundo y te lo traía al nuevo que conoces mientras avanzas con los libros pero, de todas formas, era aburrida la historia.

Maravilloso que sea un madre en busca de su hijo que es el niño del primer libro y todo lo que quieras, pero le falta chicha. La prota es aburrida y su única motivación es observar como crece su hijo sin decirle hey soy tu mamá.

Creo que los libros habrían terminado mucho mejor si el final fuera más completo, no pillando una historia nueva e intentándolo unirlo. También es verdad que cada libro es casi una historia independiente (que al final no lo es), pero no es un gran final para lo bueno que son los libros.
