Format:Mass Market Paperback
With this book, S.M. Stirling wraps up his "Nantucket Trilogy," in which the Island of Nantucket is transported to 1250 BC along with a nearby Coast Guard training windjammer. If you liked the first two books (and I did) you'll like this one. A lot of plot points from the first two books are resolved in this one, so I'd recommend reading the first two to get an idea of what's going on before tackling this book. Stirling has left room for sequels and other books in this universe, and I await them eagerly.

Good book 4 May 2012

I ordered this book for my brother and his feedback is: Good book, but a slightly weak ending to a great trilogy.

I love the 1st two books in this series. Absoloutely 1st class, which makes it all the more dissapointing that this book is amongst the most boring and pointless I have ever read. Mr Stirling should be ashamed of himself.

Only bother to spend money on this book if like me you feel you need to read all the books in the series, but prepare to be bored. Hardly anything happens all the way through the book :(

What you get for buying a job lot.
I bought all three of the books in this trilogy at the same time and started this one immediately after completing the first book, which I enjoyed very much. Read more

A very poor end to a lackluster trilogy (if this is indeed the last book in the series). The problems of the book, for me, boils down to two major problems; the choppy and rather... Read more

I had so looked forward to this third book in the series but alas it has been quite a let down.

The plot was too comlex and there were far to many characters. Read more

loses it in the final third
Not bad, but the poorest of the trilogy.Worth getting if you enjoyed the first three.

Too long, too many characters and too many situations. Read more

Disappointing
I was disappointed by the conclusion to this trilogy. It seems as if Stirling got fed up with it and pulled a rabbit out of the hat rather than follow things to their logical... Read more
