Dust Lands
2.75 stars.
It's been a long time (late 2013/early 2014) since I read the first two books in this series and apart from Saba, Jack, Emmi, Lugh and DeMalo I'd forgotten everyone else and what the plot was about, other than DeMalo creating a new world.
I must have liked its style (no speech marks and words spelt how they sound) at the beginning but I found it rather tedious in this one, which is why it's taken me so long to read it. I could only read 10/15 pages in one go before I had to put it down and do something else for a bit. It was only within the last two days that I decided it was time I finished it since it had been on my *currently reading* shelf for 10 days, way longer than I normally spend on paperbacks.
I'm not too sure I liked the ending either. I was kinda expecting more in relation to Jack and Saba. I understand that he was a little put off after he found out what had transpired but I still thought he'd get over it because of his feelings for Saba but I suppose it's been left open enough for something to happen between them as I really liked them together in the previous book.
Not one of my favourite endings to a series ever but not the worst either.
