I am sad that this trilogy is complete, but happy to hear that Hylton plans to return to a few of these characters in future stories. This installment focuses on finally defeating the enemy by forming a unified battle plan and filling in gaps regarding his modus operandi. We find out why certain locations were taken out of time, the significance, and further purposes of the tools presented in the first two books.
We also travel to Kings Cross, Wisconsin to meet some new characters who will mingle with old favorites for the final showdown. I liked hearing Zed's origin story, and flip flopping between trying to decide if he was a total villain, or more an anti-hero. The struggle for power is still a paramount theme. I LOVED the inclusion of the town library, and the Rough-Shod Readers group that served a secret extra purpose.
I hope that more people will pick up this trilogy because Hylton is a great writer and constructs a very well-paced, engaging mystery/thriller/time travel/dystopian/multi-genre book! I believe most readers would enjoy this, it's not heavy on gore or violence, and it will keep you guessing. Support him by purchasing directly from his website (scroll down for the bundle option where you can get the entire trilogy for a discount) and he will personalize and possibly include some annotations in the story.
