[Yu Li · Rating 5 out of 5]

3 first stars because i read it from cover to cover. all three of the series. it has been a while since i've done so.
the 4th star for the idea. these are the first fictional series i found by european/american author, in which arabs/muslims were victims and merely pawns and not the mastermind/instigator of terrors.
but maybe that's why these series became not so popular.
last 2 stars because i want to know what next in the story.
retract 1 star because it seem unlikely to continue.

This is a pretty decent book, and I think I would have enjoyed it e en more if I had read the previous two entries in the series. I think character development, waste dependent on previous stories to fully sink in. The pacing was good and action plenty. The religious aspects of the book could have been handled much worse.

Now searching for the ones before this one. Didn't know it was a series when I picked it up. Loved the back and forth and interweaving of faiths. What makes us different makes us the same. This book leaves you wanting more.

This was difficult reading because I did not understand all of the relationships between the Arabs. Hopefully I have learned something from it.

Exciting. Started a little slow for me but then I could not put it down. Didn’t realize this was the last book in a trilogy. I read it first

This a slow read.

[Paul · Rating 3 out of 5]

The book started out pretty good, the plot was there and all, but I found as it started to get closer to the end it began to lose it's appeal. The ending was weak . It had potential to be a good read, but I think there was just to many stories going on which makes the plot and flow get stuck in the mud!
