I don't think I can say much for this third installment, but I do want to say it was by far and away my favourite in the series.
We get an additional point of view for the final installment, which is possibly the most surprising and compelling choice Ness could have made. 1017 opens up the story which was in the previous book a civil war between two human factions into a fierce defense of the indigenous species against a vicious invading force. The civil war is still being waged, but the real battle is just beginning.
