My Review:
The characters that you’ve come to know and love in the first 2 instalments of the series come back with a vengeance in this novel. I appreciate the fact that although each character, regardless of age, race, or ethnicity, has grown throughout the series, no one has miraculously become an entirely new person. You also get to know more about some of the characters’ backgrounds in this tale, making them, and the story as a whole, more rounded and filled out. It’s also very reassuring to see that each character’s speech patterns stay consistent with their native tongue throughout. It adds an extra measure of consistency to this very intriguing tale.
Overall, this was a brilliant conclusion to Dalton’s Blemished Trilogy. She wraps up all events from the past 3 books and gives everyone a sense of conclusion and purpose. That said, she also leaves an opening for more adventures from these characters, so one can only hope.
