Two keys have now been found, and the remaining Players must find the final key—before Endgame brings about the ultimate destruction (Goodreads).
In this concluding installment, the two authors are able to retain a quality of overall consistency that has become increasingly evident with each novel. Consistently good writing is at the forefront, as the authors showcase excellent prose with a good variety of pacing, although as usual it shines amidst the fast-paced action. The international scope of the series is also displayed extremely well, and although the cast becomes smaller for obvious reasons, it still maintains a wide variety of different characters, each of whom are well fleshed out (with the exception of the aliens). On that note, it must be acknowledged that the more science fiction aspects of the book remain consistent with the rest of the series in that it is the weakest link. All in all, though, a satisfying conclusion. 8.2/10
