Brilliant Conclusion

Brilliant conclusion to the series that once again does not just continue the story, but expands it and builds something else on top of the foundation.

Slow but hard-hitting

I love this series! It's one of the great modern sci-fi books, in my opinion. It's not about action but the development of characters in a dystopian world. Very strong female characters.

No "second book slump" here!

Brilliant story, superbly narrated. Some wonderful set piecepieces and the unfolding mystery kept me listening in the car after I'd reached my destination several times :-) I'm really looking forward to the final volume.

The second book is as good as the first!

The story keeps evolving and expanding without losing focus. A rare trilogy where the second book is at least as good as the first.

incredible story

a great extension on the original story
almost all players are revealed and as always a great cliffhanger
