A satisfying end to this series. It was wonderful to see each of the characters use their unique talents to finally defeat the great evil at the center of the universe.
Kris used her lawyer skills to negotiate with the 'Masters'. Ollie used her drone control skills to hold off the Architects as they approached Berlinhoff. Kit used his number crunching/gaming talents to help Ollie strategize her drone placement. Havear used his diplomacy to aid the Vulture God crew. Solace used her military skills to hold the line for Idris, and finally Idris used his crazy intermediary powers to face the Creature in Unspace and unleash it on the 'Masters.' In the end everyone was built up, and everyone was slotted in perfectly to help save the universe. I can always appreciate a clean ending with such great character arcs from beginning to end.

The first two books were awesome, the last book as usual dragged a bit before bringing it to a great conclusion. Overall loved the series, but I guess the last book in the trilogy could have been a little better

The epic conclusion to the trilogy, this deals a satisfying ending to the saga. A lot of time was spent in the underverse and I sometimes had a little trouble following the logistics, but nevertheless, really enjoyed it.
Dragged sometimes compared to the first two in its descriptions of unspace and when trying to wrap up all the threads. But a very satisfying conclusion.

I lost steam with this a little - the introduction of additional character perspectives into the story was an interesting development, but meant even more things to keep track of. The end pulls it all together reasonably nicely though.

Note to myself: I did better eye-reading this third book of the series, though it took me a while to get going on it. I think the narrator of the first two books was a little difficult for me.
This is a big crazy space opera. I'm not entirely sure HOW things worked out at the end, but work out they did, in a big way. Lots of action in the last half.
This one took me a while, but I'm glad I stuck with it. Good stuff. Architects, a multi-billion-year plan to shape the universe into... something, dislike of sentient life, Intermediaries tackling unspace and the ?monster? the lurks within -- this book has it all.
I continue to enjoy Mr. Tchaikovsky's writing.
