A review by larsdradrach
The Naming of the Beasts by Mike Carey

4.0

A fitting and satisfactory end to the series 4.5 stars

In this last volume Carey focus solely on wrapping the Rafi/Asmodeus storyline which has been the overarching background story for all the previous novels.

As with the last 2 novels there's a clear progression in the quality of the writing and the pacing of the story, with the risk of sounding like a broken record this is the best novel min the series.

The story is brilliantly paced and the conclusion fantastic, although a little to the happy-ending side, but at least Carey avoid the Deux-de-machina temptation and stick with the rules laid out in the early novels.
