Thirteen Rising by Romina RussellMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Another case, in this series, of a 3.5 which I'm generously going to round up to a 4 - and 4 is quite appropriate considering this is the fourth, and final, book. Thirteen Rising finally wraps up Romina Russell's epic blend of sci-fi and fantasy with maybe not all the loose ends tied up, but definitely a fairly neat bow. The book begins with a long Mind Screw that resolves the diabolical cliffhanger of Black Moon, courtesy of a nasty little nightmare-inducing Sumber gun, and ends with a long, bloody fight in which we get a death toll worthy of Mockingjay or Allegiant, though perhaps not Deathly Hallows. Russell, however, manages to keep things moving fast the whole time, not letting off on the brake until the very, very end.
And now to the Zodiac series, I say vas ir...anoshe.
