Non-stop action

In this third book of the series. Pedal and Gabriel set out on a quest to repair a server needed to separate Gerry's and Pedal's minds and to stop the The Ronin from taking over Libertas.

This book was pretty much non-stop action. The author took a strategy of making you think one thing would happen, only to make it go horribly wrong and put the characters in further peril. It is a much more dark and serious tone for the main characters. Ultimately though it pays off in the end and at least a few of the well known characters get some resolution. Most everything made sense to me except it wasn't fully fleshed out on free will vs. computer-controlled actions when it came to the Ronin, nor did I fully understand why a server couldn't be replaced with identical parts. I'm looking forward to seeing how the story plays out in the next book.
As far as narration, great as always.
