"The last book in the trilogy complete, this was a fun read, but also a collection of great characters. The varied motivations and varied grey areas they were comfortable existing in made for a decent exploration of the larger themes of survival, justice, etc."

"This book took every idea raised in the first two books and drove them to their brutal, logical conclusions in the most chaotic way possible. POV was a bit more experimental maybe than the other two books (Rosewater was pretty straightforward Third Person One Guy, Insurrection was multi-POV third person, but Redemption is third-person semi-omniscient being narrated aloud to you by a time-travelling ghost, so things go places) which didn't work for some people but I liked it.

The characters are almost universally terrible people making stupid decisions but somehow it works and you're still invested in what happens to them."
