The final installment of this trilogy more than made up for the slower second book! This was tightly plotted, with wonderful tension across the relationships and the overarching plotline, and a very satisfying conclusion. I absolutely loved Crane’s final confession of love while wildly insulting his captors, and Stephen’s acceptance of Crane’s affections, seeing himself as enough of a “trade” in the relationship, was a good conclusion to their story arc.
The lyrics at the end in the short story were kind of awkward, but there you go.
