Jim Henson's the Dark Crystal: Creation Myths Vol. 3, Volume 3 by Matthew Dow Smith, Jim Henson

4.5

A good ending to a look into the events before the Dark Crystal film. I liked how things with the “storyteller” wrapped up and it was interesting to see how the Skeksis started to make their first steps towards power and control of the creatures of Thra.

An expected, yet unexpected ending. I wish we'd seen more of Aughra's son but you just can't turn back time and can only hope that more books would lean on these ones, especially the mythology behind the world of Thra and the creatures that live there.

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? N/A
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

A great end to a story 
it was great to learn more on how the world of the dark crystal came to be 
I would recommend this to anyone who loved the movie and would like to know more of the world

Shorter than the first 2, but wraps the story up nicely. Shame it couldn't have been longer.

A satisfying conclusion to the three volume arc. I still am somewhat disappointed in some of the characters reasons behind their actions. A story can be simple without being unbelievable. That being said, nostalgia wins out as well as love for the world as a whole. Glad I read it.

I felt like this volume didn't add a whole lot to what the previous volumes of the Creation Myths laid out, but it did bring the story to a close. If you enjoy anything Dark Crystal, this series does a great job at digging in to that world and giving you some history with some great illustrations.
