The Confusion and The System of the World
A couple of weeks holiday, and another public holiday when we got back was enough to get me to the end this superb series.
I have one big problem with it though. There are no more books! The way it’s written makes it something that you feel should just go on and on like Eastenders or something. And that is in part, I think, due to the way it ends. In some big trilogies, absolutely everything seems to get resolved and explained away etc, but in this series just enough does. Even right up to the end, even though there is a climax, or reckoning, if you want to see it as that, you get the feeling that life will go on and there is more coming in life for all the characters.
Now I just have to wait for a year or two to forget enough about it all to read it again….
