I dragged reading this book our for as long as humanely possible because I was so distraught that it was coming to an end! This trilogy has given me everything I could have ever wanted - a rich setting, diverse characters, an action packed plot, sub-plot upon sub-plot, false endings and cliff-hangers galore, evocative imagery, rich world-building and lovable, quirky and real protagonists that will forever have a place in my heart. There have been tears (lots of tears!), laughter and everything in between. Ness has elicited every response from me and he is undoubtedly one of the most powerful storytellers I have ever had the pleasure of reading. 
 I thing this book may just be the trilogy's crowning glory. All three were such strong books in their own right, but I felt this book might just be in a classification of its own. There is not enough stars in the world to award to this stellar closing chapter in the Chaos Walking trilogy. 
 Reading this, on times, was physically painful, in all the right ways! I felt distraught when the characters failed. I felt emotionally invested in the multitude of sides and perspectives to this story. I felt that the cliffhangers and mysteries were doing my heart no good as it is was practically beating out of my chest! And for all that, I would read this whole trilogy over and over again just to continue along with the epic and beautiful journey of two of my favourite literary characters, Viola and Todd. 
 This won't be the last time I see ya' kids, but for now it is goodbye.
