The third installment did lag a bit in the middle and occasionally the humor was forced, but when the story was exciting, it ripped along. I often couldn't wait to get back to the story to see what Mac and all her alien friends were up to. I'm definitely going to pick up some more Czerneda.

A solid end to a well-written, if overly detailed, trilogy. I would only recommend this series to someone who's a World-Building Super Fan. Czerneda is much more concerned with backstory and characterization than plot, and while that's usually a good thing, a bit more balance would be nice. Still, the last 200 pages were very compelling.

Love this series - very attached to the characters, there's a bit of historical sci-fi mystery thrown in, along with suspense and ... Just go read it. And Czerneda is a Canadian biologist. Love. (Also read Jack McDevitt if you like this sort of book).
No ribs for Mac! Mac gets SALAD and BEER!!

A very satisfying culmination of a series I enjoyed a lot. Julie Czerneda has a real gift for making me connect with her characters, and although her pacing isn't perfect, I really enjoyed this book and this series.
