Good conclusion to The Lost Gate trilogy. The low average review surprised me.
Wow this series suddenly went waay down the rabbit role. Went where I hoped it wasn't headed after the last book. By itself the supernatural explanation of christianity/other world religions would be fine - I've found it enjoyable before. Here, the additional of a fairly philosophical discussion of morality/religion coupled with extremely juvenile characters is just too clashy to be fun. A good enough ending as far as tying up loose ends goes, but it wasn't very exciting.
After the first two books in the series, I was beyond excited to read the third book. Unfortunately, it's a complete let-down from start to finish.
There's zero tension. There's zero suspense. The heroes face no significant challenges. Everything is wrapped up with a tight conversation or a pat explanation. When you think they might be in real trouble, they develop new powers and everything is fine. It seemed like this book was written more for Card to tell us what he thinks is right v wrong and what he thinks heaven is like.
It's flat and boring. Cannot recommend.
