The Middle Reaches Cycle Four: The Army of Ghosts – L. Andrew Cooper

4 stars

Creatures are invading the real world, ghosts have mutinied, gods are fighting, and everything is in chaos! The Middle Reaches are growing out of control, and people are being slaughtered left and right, but plans are being made in the background. The war must be stopped, no matter the cost…

The Middle Reaches Saga has come to its end!  This was such an interesting series to read, and I don’t think I’ll ever read anything like it again. Getting to know all of these characters and reading their journey across all the books was a lot of fun, and I liked how they grew and developed as their experiences shaped them.

I was left with a few questions in the end, though, about certain characters and circumstances, but overall, Cooper wrapped things up really nicely. I’m satisfied by how things ended and how the world wrapped up. He tied up a lot of loose ends and answered some lingering questions I had from prior books.

I’ll admit, I’m a little sad to be leaving The Middle Reaches behind. It’s such a fascinating concept (and a major mindbend), but I really enjoyed my time spent there. If you’re looking for something twisty that will make you think, this series is definitely for you!
