good_dog_rex 's review for:
Lords of Uncreation
by Adrian Tchaikovsky
ok, as much as I disliked the second book and found it boring, as much I loved this one. I do feel like this trilogy could have consisted of two books easily (and would actually benefit from shortening). Anyways, this third book is excellent - it has the closure, the closure has relevance to the real world, and it's packed with action and tons of weird and exciting aliens. And as a big bonus (for me), you get extra time with Ollie. I loved her character so much and was constantly wondering why the author was not paying her attention in the first two books (so rich, vivid, well-made, unique character! love love love her!). Now I understand - she was supposed to get on the stage in the last part.
I'd remove 0.5 stars for zero character development, but that must apply to the set. I know Adrian can do that (Dogs of War, the Children of Time), but he chose not to do it here. All characters are fully formed and set in stone from the start to the end.
