About this deal

Not what I would have expected or even have hoped for, but that's what makes it all the more amazing. Patiesu prieku sagādāja tas, ka autors stāstu bija izstrādājis jau no pirmās grāmatas (vismaz tāds iespaids radās) un tādēļ neviena grāmata nešķita atrauta no pārējām.

Masters who are just becoming aware of humanity’s daring – and taking steps to exterminate this annoyance forever. The matters of existential threat and plain human petty power trips are nicely balanced, as are space battles and genuine human (and nonhuman) moments. In the process, they discover that the Oumaru was carrying Originator artifacts, which could protect an entire planet from Architects. The characters we’ve come to know through the last two books all get their fair share of screen time, and their storylines mostly tie up satisfactorily.Idris argues against the extermination of the Architects and senses in their strangely artistic way of reworking the planets they destroy “the expression of their grief at being made to do the will of monsters.

Only in the final stretch did things really start to get interesting, with the revelation of some of the mind blowing mysteries at the heart of the story.

These are not cliche tropes, even if we've encountered something like them in other novels through the years. The scenes in the "unspace" are too metaphysical to be interesting, and I think the attempted descriptions of the action in this place where things "are" but not really, are difficult to follow.
