None. Interesting end to the trilogy. Still reads strongly as "young adult" rather than "adult" fiction. I liked the three enough to start the Glass Trilogy! Excellent series. I'll be moving on to the Glass series very soon. This one started out much more slowly for me. It took a while before it really captured my attention. Fantasy,Luna For me, the weakest of the three. It was nice Yelana finally figured her path in life, but it felt repetitive after a while. no reviews | add a review Is contained in

The plot.. Well, it sucked. The same old thing, over and over and over again. There was so much pointless travelling from one place to another... Everyone and their mom has discovered and has endless caches of curare, so every fight is completely dominated by people being paralyzed or trying not to be paralyzed or paralyzing other people. It usually goes something like this... Travel to one location, ambush involving lots and lots of curare, someone is captured, someone escapes or is rescued, rinse and repeat for 400 pages. Seriously. I'm not even kidding.
The characters are annoying and inconsistent. The whole thing was predictable. It was just not enjoyable at all for me. I had to force myself to finish it, just so I could be done already. Not recommended. (
