The last book of a trilogy? Terrifying. So much is at stake. So many questions have been raised. Expectations are high. Will this book disappoint? The answer is a resounding No!
I enjoyed every minute of this book, if not more than I enjoyed the previous two. I had so many questions after book 1 and 2 and I’m pleased to say that my questions have been answered. For example:
The world building: Two worlds, if you really want to get technical. I loved the worlds that the author created in these books, a perfect blend of science and magick. There are satisfying answers as to why these worlds exist.
The characters: You are invested in the welfare of the characters we known and loved, and you care about the host of new characters that join them on this quest. The author has a great talent for creating real, distinct and diverse characters that jump off the page and give every reader something with which to identify.
To say I’m a fan of these books is an understatement. These books have everything: dragons, medallions, quests, robots, a world in peril, prophecy and much more, all presented with humour and heart. The hallmark of a truly great ending is the desire you have to go back and experience it all again. That’s exactly the feeling I had finishing this trilogy.
The author is able to connect to that feeling we have as kids, where the world is open to possibilities, where even though something may seem impossible, relying on your friends will help you get through it, and where even though things may seem dark there’s always hope that things can get better.
