I really can't take much more of the characters I love being ripped to shreds. The past two books have been so depressing. The last book better wrap this all up nice and neat.

I felt like his was a bit too slow and jumpy at the beginning to give it a full five stars but I was still so good. A devastating addition to the series.

A smidge of middle book syndrome here but that ending was phenomenal

I really enjoy the deep story telling of these books. The character building is a work of art, a sign of a great writer. Sabaa Tahir has began a wonderful modern day classic with these books. As this book in particular started a little slow compared to the previous two, I really enjoyed the later part. This sets up what is to be a great finale. I can't wait to see how this thing ends!!! Truly remarkable!
