A good ending to the series.
Took a bit of time to get into the story.
But ending was very good.

A fitting finale
This book took a while to get going, some of the loose ends from the previous book needed tying up, but it made a great story once it had.
The final few chapters closed the story nicely, the last chapter especially.
All in all, a fitting closure of the series.

A great end to a brilliant series
I've been told the ending of this book is great and I whole heartedly agree. It isn't perfect and there are a few slow points but that can easily be overlooked.

wow what an amazing finale
Philip reeve has got this stride in this the final book. The ending is magnificent as the beginning. Truly the cycle of life has been told here, I am sure there are references to modern society but who needs those...no need to over think things. brilliant for all ages.

Wrapped up well
I think it was a great ending. Didn’t seem forced at all. Highly recommend the series
