The Last Binding

[psocoptera]

The Last Binding, Freya Marske, 2023 novel concluding the Last Binding trilogy (previous book here). I might have liked this least of the three of them - the second one is *such* a romp, and this one was more constrained by having certain setup/connective work it has to do, so the pacing early on was a little less propulsive. And I didn't love the pairing as much as either prior. Still, the last act had some great drama and momentum, and I liked how she landed the plane. I would definitely still recommend the trilogy, and am pleased with the second-place vote I gave it on the Hugo Series ballot.
