I can’t say I loved this book, but at least some of that is on me. I didn’t realize this was the final book in a new-to-me series when I picked it up. There were clearly continuing plot lines from earlier stories that I knew nothing about, and there were a lot of terms specific to the alien world that I had to try to figure out from context. I didn’t really understand what the bad guy aliens looked like or why they were doing what they were doing, but I’m sure that would have made sense if I had started at the beginning. That said, the characterization of the main characters was pretty superficial. On the other hand, the pace of the story never faltered and I felt the urgency in the two characters finishing their quest. Don’t start here, but if the series intrigues you try picking up book 1 instead.
