Bone Silence

This was a hugely disappointing end to the trilogy. A confused mess of book, with a weirdly messianic bent. I had enjoyed the tale of the Ness sisters in the first too books - the accidental turn to piracy and the high adventure in a fairly unique sci-fi universe. Bone Silence tries to up the stakes and ends up falling flat on its face. This book is bloated and confused and really should have been split in two as it reads as two very distinctive sections. The hints about the cyclicity of the universe are explored in more depth but the end result is underwhelming. The conspiracy to try and hunt down the sisters is also somewhat of a damp squib.

An example of all the components being there but nothing quite meshing together unfortunately.
