#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A thrilling finale to a trilogy that will stand as one of the great achievements in American fantasy fiction.”―Stephen King You followed The

Review: Fin de la trilogía al fin, solo en inglés pero muy bueno. - Muy buen final, lastima que la editorial no lo traducirá al español. Muy buen libro para el costo y el envío excelente.
Review: The perfect conclusion - Is it over? Is this masterpiece of modern day fiction truly and thoroughly over? But first, a brief summary of events that led us to this eagerly anticipated, yet still emotional conclusion… Like a lot of people probably did back in 2010, I picked up The Passage on a whim, only knowing about it from a small Facebook ad and a quote by Stephen King, encouraging people to read it. I knew next to nothing about the plot, and even less about Justin Cronin so call it fate or just one of those rare moments of pure randomness, but whatever the reason, giving The Passage a chance was probably one of the best decisions I ever made. I instantly fell in love with the book. The plot was amazing. The writing even more so. I can still remember the excitement and sheer enjoyment of that fateful summer, staying up into the wee hours of the morning, totally engrossed in the story, even going as far as bringing the book into work, sneaking glances at its pages when there were far more pressing matters at hand. The Passage was so awesome and such a damned perfect novel in every single facet and I made it well known, loaning out (GASP!) my beloved copy to multiple family and friends. Yes, my first edition is now worn, pages creased and corners bent in, but it was totally worth it in my eyes since nearly everyone who borrowed it felt exactly the same as I did. When The Twelve was announced, I was like a kid being told he’s going to Disneyland for his birthday; I could hardly contain my excitement. I might not have been the very first person to pre-order it, but I’m pretty sure I was somewhere up there on that list. It had been a long 2 years and now for 3 months I eagerly awaited its release, counting down the 100+ days until the novel was finally in my hands. Now to say that The Twelve had a lot, and I mean a lot, riding on it, pretty much goes without saying. Maybe that’s why, the first time through, I was somewhat disappointed. The book was great, don’t get me wrong, but having to follow up The Passage was no easy feat, plus I had squandered those 2 long years, not going back to read the previous novel. It would make sense, then, that I was lost, a little confused, and hardly able to remember any of the basic structure. In going back to re-read The Twelve in anticipation for Mirrors, however, it became pretty apparent that Twelve was, in fact, a fantastic follow up. Questions were answered, new ones were posed, the story of Amy and Peter and Michael was continued practically flawlessly and brought even more depth and originality to Cronin’s post-apocalyptic universe. Plus, and probably best of all, it left the reader in suspense and wanting more. Well, we wanted more for FOUR FREAKING YEARS. That’s a year longer than your average auto lease. Or like reaching into George R.R. Martin status! I know that doesn’t equate to a long time for some people, but for book lovers, and lovers of this series, it might as well have been an eternity, particularly when you consider the release date continuing to be pushed back, or being simply, wrong all together. Cronin’s own cryptic red herrings and purposefully teasing announcements didn’t help much either, only leading to more impatience and constant fear that the final book in the trilogy would continued to be delayed, or, horror of all horrors, never be published altogether. So I guess the question is: was the frustratingly long wait of nearly 1,460 days really worth it? The answer? Hell Yes! And a resounding “Hell Yes” at that! The City of Mirrors holds that rare distinction of a near perfect conclusion to an already near perfect trilogy, joining the ranks of other distinguished series like Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter (and even Harry Potter had 2 clunkers in it’s canon (Order of the Phoenix and Half Blood Prince just in case you wanted to know). Seriously though, the final book in The Passage trilogy exceeded even my highest expectations…and I set the bar pretty stinking high. [image error] It’s just that Cronin does a freaking fantastic job of tying everything together, bringing to a close, the story he started so many years ago. It never once feels like so much time passed between books because he is seriously that good of an writer. Much as he did in his previous works, Cronin pens a depressing story, one with little hope or joy, yet still manages to be beautifully descriptive, bringing forth truly vivid scenes and details, as well as a bunch of different emotions, and you can’t help but to root for humanity’s survival and applaud their constant tenacity against the Virals and Zero. Speaking of Zero, the backstory really knocked my socks off. Sure, Fanning moaning about love like a 7th grade emo kid got a little old, and his descriptions of cars and technology that Alicia and anyone listening wouldn’t understand were a little out of place (though I think this was more for the readers themselves), but for 100+ pages, I was 100% hooked. Giving humanity to the most lethal viral of all, and showing the reasons for who he is/was, made for a compelling section, and someone readers could identify with, much as we had already done with Carter. And my God, what an ending! I gotta admit, while it wasn’t exactly how i would have chosen to finish this story had I written it, I must say, damn, was it good. Somehow, in the sure genius that is Justin Cronin’s mind, he made me actually feel something, some form of emotion beyond just enjoyment. Both happiness and heartache, as well as this weird bittersweet response of completion. And there it is, The Passage has been completed. 6 years, 2,000 pages or so, and countless hours of sleep and now my literary journey is finished. Like I said, it’s such a weird feeling, being both happy with the outcome, but still kind of bummed out that the ride is over. I feel like I’m losing friends and family, since, afterall, we readers followed them for years (both literally and fictionally). And knowing that we won’t (most likely) see them again is definitely a melancholy feeling. Then again, to know Cronin was able to write 3 fantastic novels that kept me on the edge of my seat and will remain, all of them, some of my all time favorite books, is an accomplishment many hope to achieve but few actually do. Bravo Mr. Cronin. Bravo
