Historia
Will Henry and Dr. Warthrop have encountered many horrors together, but can Will endure a monstrumological terror without his mentor? Will Henry has been through more than seems possible for a boy of fourteen. He's been on the brink of death on more than one occasion, he has gazed into hell and hell has stared back at him, and known his face. But through it all, Dr. Warthrop has been at his side.

A tragic ending to a series that tragically ended too soon
Revisado: 06-15-16
Not a happy ending. The puzzle pieces were all there in the first three books, so it actually is a fitting conclusion, and it does tie the series together, building on the previous narratives in ways they failed at times to connect with each other. But wow does it take a dark turn in an already dark serial. It is no accident that the author references Dante's Inferno and the book of Job so frequently: Like those works, the horror here evokes a personal reaction in the reader that is probably more the point than the story itself. Personally I found myself hoping for some final bit of redemption, but was left with a tragic ending to a series that tragically ended far too soon. Whether the tragedy is truly deserving for these characters and their relationships is left to each reader, but the fact that the ending is divisive among reviewers proves the effectiveness of the story-telling, IMHO.
