really liked it

4 Stars

A very different take on the normal fantasy and science fiction genres and I've enjoyed it.
Parts of this dragged a little but in the end a great finish to a great series.

The world building is understated a little but it still works. You don't quite get drawn into the world and done things are hard to picture but it's always been about the characters and this is still the case

Some characters lost me a little in this one and one in particular just irked me constantly. They were descriptively described though which was important and helped with the lack of world building. Characters like the man shape were very intriguing and very different.
For me though this has always been about The Vagrant and it was great to see him in it more than in the second book. He is complex to day the least and I enjoyed watching his exchanges with Reela.
And of course it wouldn't be this series without a goat or Two.

The plot is unusual to say the least and quite often has elements of many genres and types which actually works well.

Overall a great series and a very fitting end. In fact the last 2 pages were as good an ending as I've read in a long time.

Highly recommended
