wilderthanWhat really amazes me about this series is how well-planned it is. Seemingly random incidents or comments as far back as the first book turn out to have relevance in this book, the fourth. I'm loving the way it all comes together.
This book was quite satisfying, given that the multi-national company finally got a kick in the pants and Thursday finally got her husband back. Not as many new ideas in this one, but satisfying use of old ones, and interesting stuff plot-wise. I'm actually kind of disappointed that the next one is the last one, though I hope it doesn't open some new story arc that it won't at least semi-resolve. The one that was concerning me over the last three books was Landen's disappearance -- I'm not as into the characters as I am some, but as I've got fonder of Thursday I've wanted Landen back more and more.
There were some good character moments, in this book. Like when Landen flickers out of existence after re-actualising. Ouch.
