Intricate.

Disappointed in ending. I don’t like tragedies apparently. I have the feeling of unfinished business. Well written, fascinating imagination. But still, disappointing.

I am so confused and heartbroken

I spent so much of this book confused. much of it, yes, was in excitement and joy, but the ending of this has me scratching my head. I love this series and I understand it to be too slow for some but I've loved this story from book 1. however I don't know what it is with the past 2 books. I am so confused and needing more than what this "final book" gave us.
maybe there will be a new series that branches from this one, but it cannot stop here. like, it just can't. do I regret getting this book? No. Will I read it again? Absolutely. Will I still be confused and heart broken at the end if it? you betcha.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING

This series was incredible, so epic, so touching, so lovely. The moment I finished the 1st book I knew that this series would take up a huge place I'm my heart. It's my all time favorite series now. Amazing job by the author, translator and of course narrator.

She got lost

The last book felt too forced and the pace dragged. I was really disappointed.

Good series

I really enjoyed the series. I will admit that the fourth ended with you thinking there could be more. I think so much was tied together.

The Best Series I Have Ever Read.

Steam punk, magic, science, biblical entanglement, love, loss, political dealings, courtier life, mystery, truth, and evils. These books have it all. You fall in love with Thorn for who he is, you watch Ophelia grow, literally. The story is so vivid and so well read that you are truly there, in The Pole, Clair de Lune, Babel. Such beautifully described places that you're truly enchanted the entire time. The characters charm you, no matter what their role is. Every character makes you want more of them and you cherish every moment with each. It feels as though the author set out to make sure each character had a special place in your heart. The deep and intense feelings that are invoked by this story are truly timeless human fears, loves, and actions. I cannot recommend this book enough. I will be rereading this series for the rest of my life.

Fantastique

I would be so proud if I was the author of these books. The themes are relevant and controversial, the characters are gourgeously strange and, finally, the plot kept suprising me until the very end.

Didn't enjoy it as much as the first book.

I had to finish the series, but I didn't quite understand this book. Characters were not fully developed and others were over developed. I am still pondering some things.

Rough....

such a meandering and dull finish to a previously interesting tale. felt like a book to fulfill a contractual obligation.

Crash and Burn

This story was all over the place. So many extra pieces put in and not tied together leaves for a confusing mess. Worst of all, the character development through the first 3 books (well, the 1st two, the 3rd book took a step backward) is completely thrown in the trash here. This book makes me wish I had never started the series. I loved the 1st 2 books and listened to them repeatedly. Because of the 3rd and 4th books, the whole series is ruined and I will never pick it up again.
