3.5 really liked the last chapters, but the way there was too convoluted and inconsistently paced. I sometimes had to drag my feet trough it, mixed with times when too much with too many people happened. Where the horror elements in the second book elevated the story further, in this it was dialed too high to be still shocking or scary. The first book is still the best in the trilogy!
