I liked it a lot. Glad it wasn't so focused on mayhem and destruction, but about people and their gods.

Percebi pouco mais que nada.
Era um nonsense porreiro, mas agora é só chato.
Vai-se safando a arte.

 Was able to get through it a lot faster this time because 

1. already read the whole novel
2. there was a lot less extraneous stuff in here than the other 2 parts.

The abstract and nigh-rotoscoped nature of the artstyle helps with the dreamlike nature of some of the trippier aspects of the story, but otherwise makes it seem like a more artsy adaptation of something that doesn't work so well as a visual medium.
If it weren't for the sweeping changes they made to the source, I would recommend the TV show, but I don't even know how it ends so I can't say if it's the superior adaptation.
