With a tentative truce agreed between The Green Storm and Municipal Darwinists, all seemed settled but for some, there must always be war and for others, there will be no peace until all mankind has been swept off the planet. Reeve did everything right in this final installment. The characters (Tom and Hester) that I had cared for so much from Mortal Engines are given the right ending and all aspects of the story including characters old and new and bound together in just the right way.Although

I love this series and in particular I love the end to this series. Although...No, I'm not going to put in a major spoiler and ruin it for everyone even though it's tempting.But to be brief as I always am when writing reviews. After all what is a review for but to inform the reader that they want to read the book and to give a little detail about the book. But basically all any science fiction aficionado needs to know is that there are reanimated men as stalkers, there are orbiting death

A Darkling Plain is the longest of the Hungry City books, by a fairly large margin. But there is, after all, a lot going on here. There's hardly any padding, so it earns it's 500+ pages honestly. Thinking about the book, I suspect that I wouldn't have liked it so much, or been so glued to it, if I hadn't already been deeply invested in these characters from previous books. Tom and Hester especially, who see their story draw to what is probably its unavoidable close. The ending is fantastic,

Within the Predator Cities quartet, Philip Reeve has created an imaginative world and a cast of memorable characters. Each book is an invitation to a different time and place, transporting the reader to a remarkable world full of perilous action and extraodrinary adventure. Spoilers Ahead: (view spoiler)[Most book series depict the evolution of a hero. Usually the hero gets by in the first or second book thanks to sheer dumb luck, and by the end of a series, the hero has matured, evolved, become

You have noooo idea how happy I am that this series is over and I dont have to torture myself any longer.There were so many mehhhh moments with this book that I dont want to overdo it but keep this short and sweet. So lets bring out the wonderful dot points! Was this even edited? Why are we still in their heads?!?! Annoying World building can no longer save this book like it did the last three Everything is tense but with no climax its a massive blue-balls moments Needed salt or some flavour

A amazingly creative world marred by really bad characters, author hang ups and the very visible hand of God.World: The world is simply the best thing about this series. The dense, creative and mind blowingly deep world that Reeve has created here is the sole reason that I was able to finish this series. The sandbox that is created here gives a huge sense of discovery and wonder with the little bits and pieces of the past the Reeve sprinkles into his world (like the iPod) to tease and delight

Ugh. That's pretty much it. I wanted so badly to love this series, and to be honest, I do appreciate the world Mr. Reeve creates. I appreciate his clean and experienced writing style as well. Its his insistence on having all of the "good" characters constantly walking around as naive as they can possibly be that is killing me. It seems that with this series, it doesn't matter what kind of experiences the characters go through, they are either permanently naive and bumbling around depending on
