The third and final book in the Arc of a Scythe series sticks the landing very well. Although the story remains serious, it has a fun and irreverent tone not seen in either of the two previous books. Goddard is as evil as ever, Citra and Rowan are still the noble star-crossed lovers, but the story of Greyson and the Thunderhead help give the series a final lift above the usual dystopian YA fare. Shusterman creates a great story that takes many twists and turns while still answering all questions and creating a satisfying finale.

Truly an incredible book and story! I truly hope one day we will see another book added to this series. I want more of Rowan and Citra!
