Talk:Endless Summer, Book 3/@comment-34251713-20180415103651/@comment-34908197-20180418065956

Honestly, I agree with you. Book 3 was the weakest in the series. The endings weren't terrible, but... it felt like the pacing for this book was all over the place. A lot of plot threads were introduced (Kele, the Arachnids, the Anachronists, Uqzhaal's betrayal, Aleister rejoining the group, the Embers, etc) and then either 1) suddenly dropped or 2) quickly wrapped up with very little payoff. I feel like the writing for some characters' dialogue wasn't as strong here, either.

I don't know. I think the writers tried to do too much in Book 3, couldn't fully develop all those plots, and needed a way to wrap it up somehow... at the same time, I feel like they could have done more, though maybe it's better to say they should have focused on resolving specific things instead of introducing several new plots/characters each chapter.
