Whatever you do, you must read this trilogy. Of course, if you've already read the first 2 books, this one doesn't need any presentation. It ties all the loose ends and all your questions while leaving room for spin-off sequels. And the best part, it's a good trilogy in its own right, despite being Warhammer 40K. Everyone should read this. If all Warhammer 40K books would be of this quality, then well, I guess it will become a literary universe instead of a miniature game.
Moving on, the final installment in the Eisenhorn trilogy deals with the consequences of one's actions and as always, the focus is the inner-life of inquisitor Eisenhorn. Yes, there are battles and mayhem but that is secondary. And I'd wish the villain would be more fleshed out thought from what I've seen these books follow a particular formula that focuses mainly on build-up. Once the villains are revealed, the suspense drops, and the author chooses to tie it all together before the novel overstays its welcome. The result is that as a reader you're looking for more and you'll read the next book, but at the same time you admit that the best part of the novel was the search for answers.

Great finale to the trilogy! Definitely a few gut punches in there!
4.5 breakneck reading at times but fumbled the ending. Malleus was the top for me. I enjoyed the slower sections of the book and looks into Eisenhorn's past. Needed less time on a train and more time on Ghul. Love an addendum though.
