But as the skies darken and reality fractures, one truth becomes to destroy the Abstract, the parasite’s elusive and godlike creator, they must turn to the only force older and darker than evil itself—the Collectors.

But the Collectors don’t serve humanity. They serve balance. And if that balance means letting Earth fall, so be it.

Overall, a satisfying conclusion to the primary storyline. The bane of those reading these--like its predecessors--is the cherry-picking when trying to amalgamate complex interdisciplinary areas of scientific study. In the first three books, it was Quantum entanglement; in this book, it's Chaos theory. Sometimes in storytelling, it's best to leave the unexplainable unexplained, rather than finding a single underlying principle of a scientific/mathematical theory and then attempting to adduce the 'why' and the 'how' with it, when in reality it simply becomes superfluous. Divinity, eternity, 'the prime mover,' etc. are all immutable, while science is not.

Conversely, the author has a great writing style, as well as a great ability to create unique atmospheres of places no living (nor perhaps deceased) person has ever been.

Overall, I found this series refreshing and enjoyable. Dare I say I truly enjoyed the bond Joe and his father (the Devil) developed, particularly in this final installment. During many points in the book I looked up and said, "I'm starting to like the Devil."
