The Arthur C. Clarke award-winning author of Children of Time brings us the third and final novel in an extraordinary space opera trilogy about humanity on the brink of extinction, and how one man's discovery will save or destroy us all.
A good story and ending. However at times it got too bogged down in details.
Just wrapped up this series and very much appreciated it. It had both the scale of everything but still kept the story and characters within a time and place that was easy to comprehend.
many sympathetic characters and many despicable.
By the end I had trouble keeping track of the different factions involved in the grand scale of all the issues, but I appreciated the application of three way fight logistics, and cataclysmic problems.
happy I read it and for anyone Adrian Tchaikovsky pilled it is a great series.
This book twisted into many unexpected directions after the first arc. +1. Some of the characters were definitely chefs kiss. This series was sufficiently world-buildy/fantady to keep you wondering. Not far fetched, but wild, regardless
Tchaikovsky brings his 'straight' Space Opera series to an end with a flourish. Real 4.5 stars territory here. This pulled me along nicely. Which is always something I look for in a book, I want to be pulled to find out what is coming next. Not pushing myself to see. That pull made it a pleasure to read and the entertainment was certainly delivered. Satisfactory resolutions all round and nothing really left dangling. Fine work and a definite recommend.
