Well this took a little while. No fault of the book, just life. A fitting end to the series but if I am honest I was not totally blown away with this book. I felt too many new PoV characters were introduced and the plot ended up a little deus ex machina. However, there are plenty of positives here and it was a pleasant and engaging read. The bones of this series were Peter Hamilton and Iain M Banks but there was a little too much of Hamilton's indulgence with his characters for this to be more than 4 stars for me. I definitely recommend the series though.
