Ahoy there mateys! This was the last book of a trilogy.  I loved the first book and thought the second book was okay.  I was still excited to see how the series would finish.  I ended up abandoning this at 30%.  This book started out poorly for me with an eight year time jump.  And SO much had happened in that interval that it kinda made me noggin hurt trying to swim through the details.  And then the big bad felt rather boring to me being a kind of hive mind with no other purpose than to destroy the world.  There were some cool concepts here like Greeter and Design and Giva itself.  And Clef being awesome as always.  But overall I just wasn't enjoying meself.  I set it down and never had the urge to pick it back up.  I kinda want a spoiler paragraph of how it ended but not enough to read another 380 or so pages.  Arrr!  Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the review copy.
