How to address this book? How to discuss what it means, not just as a book, but as the end of a series and specifically the end of THIS series. It's entirely possible that after four very different but incredible books at the beginning with varied but looooong waits in between, followed by the car a...

Excellent novella! It did not take long for me to get hooked on this story and become fully engaged with the protagonist Trevor Lawson and his fight for his own humanity. This is a story of loss and hope and possibly...redemption. Like most novellas that grab you from the get go, I was left wanting ...

It's a short book, so a review for it would be pointless. Needless to say it was a good pre-book to the series. The quote that impressed me the most: If there's to be damnation, let it be by my choosing, not theirs.

This book is the culmination of a huge investment, both for author and reader, and it's a draining one. So much is found, and lost, and gained and lost and it makes me heartsore. As much as I love this ...

Ugh, what a slog. I'll be honest: I gave up after 250 pages. I basically had to read the last few chapters to see how it ends. Why this book had to be 800+ pages is beyond me, it's just so full of uninteresting, boring stuff.

I can't remember why exactly but I wasn't able to finish this. I think I just got bored. Now, having seen that it turned into a seven part series, I'm glad I didn't waste any more energy on it than I did.
