The Far West by Patricia C. Wrede
3.0
The Frontier Magic trilogy wraps up as it began, with a mix of inventive world-building and incomprehensible magical jargon. The adventure elements are strong enough to make this a fun and engaging read, but the same problems that plague the first two installments continue here. The pacing is a bit odd, the narration seems too distant, and the magical solutions to a variety of crises are full of overly complicated terms and concepts that don't actually explain much of anything.
Still, The Far West provides a satisfying conclusion to the main character's story. If you've read the first two books, by all means read the third to see how it all works out.
