I guess I'd give this 3.5 stars. I think the first half was great. But I HATE time travel, unless it's just used simply like to go back in time and solve a mystery. This book dove right into all the paradoxes and other goobley gook that makes time travel so annoying. So minus a star for that and minus a star for that piece of crap Mr. Campbell called an ending. I have NO IDEA how the story ended. I guess everything worked out fine? He might as well have just ended it with "... and they all lived happily ever after."If you loved the 2nd book (and I did) and you're looking for closure (and I was) - just stop there. You'll get no closure with this book. It is fun but in the end it's like someone ripped out the last chapter. I enjoyed this conclusion to the trilogy I think the Campbell has created a really interesting and believable world. The series as a whole is slightly strange, not in a bad way, but the first book sets up for a storyline you don't expect at all.This book did drag in a few places it didn't have me as gripped as scar night did (my favourite of the trilogy) but had some good plot twists. The end was confusing a lot of time travelling that was hard to get your head around. The end was a bit disappointing, I wanted to know what happened to dill and Rachel mainly and it wasn't wholly explained, just kind of cryptic hints at further stories.This series is well worth a read for a refreshingly dark fantasy story that doesn't revolve around love as a plot driver.
The trilogy had some very interesting concepts at times... but it still wasn't very good.

Not thrilled, though it was better than Iron Angel. Not something I will read again.

Interesting Trilogy. Keeps Re-Inventing what it is about.
