The Toll

I have absolutely no qualms with this book. I feel like everything was neatly tied in a bow at the end in the most lovingly heart wrenching ending I've ever read. So much love went into this book and that's so immensely clear in every way. I laughed, I cried, I threw my phone in anger, I cried some more. A rollercoaster of emotions and I loved every second.

This book forgot it's original story for me. The lack of the two main characters through out most of the book, made for a distinct lack of interest in the plot of the book. The author's decision to only let less than 50000 of earth population travel to stars is unbelievable . The final solution to the world's overpopulation is not enough to prevent the eventual demise of human society on earth.final observation is that a AI as sophisticated as it is could blame all of humanity for one man acts of violence.

The main storyline is fine, it's a good enough wrap up of the series. But Scythe Rand is the true villain, and the fact that she got a happy ending is disgusting.
