4.0

An action packed conclusion to the trilogy. I could have done without the translator and the unanswered questions about their motivations given their superiority. The final showdown felt believable and while it veered slightly from the character's original goal reflects the growing understanding of their role in the world.

5.0

I think part of why I find these books so enjoyable is that I really like tea. This makes it adorably quirky sometimes:)

Also, the alien ambassador really reminds me of my best friend growing up (but in a flattering way, really I promise).

5.0

I want more.

A reasonable conclusion to the series, though honestly a bit thin. I find myself a bit guilty lamenting that there wasn't more fireworks at the end. The story just sort of ended. It didn't feel like the end of a series I guess, just the end of one book in a series.
