While I absolutely adored the original Iron Fey trilogy I just didn't get into Ash's POV adventure. The story and the worldbuilding was fabulous as always, but it just didn't quite reach the all-consuming love I had for the original series.

"The Barrystown Trilogy —the language, the humor — is so good. I re-read “The Snapper” last year when I was pregnant, and it turned my crying into laughter. I read these over and over again when I want to think of home."

"Red by Kieslowski. I love that whole trilogy, but Red, for me, was the most full film. I think it made me think about the world from new angles that I hadn’t before. I think I was about seventeen when I saw it."

This is the final book in the trilogy and although it does wrap somethings up it kinda leaves a "that's it?" feeling. The characters do not seem to develop any more than they did in the second book except Marco whom I hated throughout the series. Usually the concluding book in a trilogy is the biggest because all the revelations that come but this was the shortest. I think this could have been done as two books instead of three and ended stronger. That said I suggest you read all three together for the best experience.

[Preston Fleming] is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors. With the third installment of his Kamas Trilogy he again kept me up reading late at night. [Exile Hunter] was the strongest book in the trilogy and that is saying a lot since I loved them all. Also in my experience trilogies third book is usually the weakest.

The intertwining character relationships kept you wanting more. I also like how what you read about in the first two books was reinforced and the story truly continued.

I will be looking for more books by Mr. Fleming.
  
When I saw this on a library shelf I felt a warmth sensation filling me up inside.
I have, since the very first read of the The millennium Trilogy, been continuously involved in learning further about the books, the characters and of course, Steig himself.

However, when it came to reading this book it seemed to pinpoint on a section and then repeating its meaning with large words that over-powered one another.

I love psychology and I love the trilogy and anything belonging to this.

However, I didn't find it as fascinating as I hoped to have had.

Great supplement to the trilogy
This collection of short films, some of which were written by the The Wachowski Brothers, is a great set of stories as both prequel and supplement to the Matrix trilogy of films. They show various wars and clashes between humans and the robots they created to the basis of forming the Matrix itself which exists in the live-action version.

The animation is really bright and eye popping and reminded me of Ghost in the Shell or even Samurai Jack at times. Some of the stories were a little too close to the trilogy while others really went in their own direction. Others reminded me of other genre films including District 9 or even War of the Worlds.

I liked the fast paced style of animation in some and others let the stories develop a little more.

For those Matrix movie fans I think you would thoroughly enjoy this!
