The protagonist of this book is Sofia Logan, a woman who suddenly lost her husband, and needs to learn how to survive in a very unwelcoming London, especially if you are a woman in 1905, and have two other mouths to feed. This book is told from Sofia’s perspective, and I really liked her as a character. The author is very detailed when it comes to Sofia’s thoughts and experiences, it is a blessing and a curse.

It doesn't show you anything between the Xmen films and Logan which make you question why the film is set like it is. What caused the destruction of humans and the planet? Why was he in the desert? If flashbacks were in the film showing how they got to this then I would have been more interested.

In case you've missed my previous reviews of this series; this isn't one of my favourite but it has always kept me reading and the stories seem to get better with each one.

The plot thickened a lot in this one with the leader of the Reapers making an appearance and let me tell you that was a bit of a shock.

<spoiler>I'm sad to see Logan leave, if only for a little while, too.</spoiler>

A sad, desperate attempt to wring one last film (we hope) out of what was once a great movie premise. I admit I didn't quite see the twist coming, but knew there would be one, and found that aspect reasonably clever.
But overall this film was full of plot-holes, the acting was atrocious, the ending made no sense and the games have lost the character of those in the original films.
A number of things just kept annoying me and took me right out of the film (one minute Logan is apologising to his daughter and her babysitter for another late night, the next he is heading to the pub?!, Logan takes the bullet out of Edgar's body - but Edgar had been in a coma for days, why was the bullet not taken out of his body while he was in hospital?!, along with the usual horror movie illogical actions trope).
This film added nothing to the Saw series, if anything it urinates over its corpse, and added nothing to my life.
