Kind of disappointed with the third book, previous two were worth reading. This one seemed like it was chapters of lectures of how we as people are influenced into how we act and a way of thinking of how we became to be, then a quick ending to close the series out. Barely any progression of storyline chapter after chapter. Just had to read it to finish out the series.

First two books were great.. Such a huge disappointment to have the series end like this. It's as if Card didn't care anymore and just ripped it out to meet a deadline and collect his royalties. I didn't put the first two books down. Took me a month to read this one just because it became a chore to read it.

The mithermage series isn't OSC's best work, imho, but it wasn't bad either. I enjoyed the ride for what it was and am overall pleased that I took the time to read through it. Thank you OSC. Please continue writing and publishing so that I may continue to selfishly consume your content.

A good finish for a great series. Unlike the pathfinder finale this book does not repeat the same info 500 times. I was worried when I read the other reviews and I braced myself for it. But it never came. Then I had finished. 5 stars. Card gets really imaginative without changing or breaking other sections of the book which is what happened in pathfinder.

Loved the book...wasn't totally satisfied with how it ended so suddenly.

What the heck happened. The 1st 2 books were great. I read half of this one and then wiped my behind with the rest. Too bad it was on my iPad.

I usually enjoy Card's books but found this one to be a real struggle to finish not to mention enjoy. Not much plot and way too much time trying to explain his metaphysical all concepts.
