2.0 out of 5 stars A weak ending to a series that deserved better, Nov 8 2003
By A Customer
First of all, the last sentence of the book alone drops this book's rating from 3 stars to 2. A downer of an ending is one thing, even a positive for this genre--but a self-important downer of an ending is simply annoying.

That said, the trilogy as a whole is pretty decent, just don't expect any literary masterpieces, particularly in this volume. The plot device stolen directly from Hamlet is pure cliche, and the author seems to forget how to write an even semi-convincing female character. The ending seems to show promise, getting the reader to start thinking about issues of the allure of wealth and international trade (very salient 30 years later), but the last sentence destroys any good will built up by that point. It's fine for the narrator to be down on life, but moping? It's out of character, and jarring enough to remind the reader of the (many) other flaws in the book.
