This book is, like all books in the series, extremely well written an a joy to read. I love how it uses "mystical" religious writings to establish its lore. And this is where it all comes together, and this universe becomes ever bigger. I particularly enjoyed reading about how a seemingly ridiculous idea has grown into a full-fledged religion, including the most un-prophety prophet one could imagine. Even beyond the tonists, this book has so many interesting things that give you food for thought. The Thunderhead seems like a benevolent ChatGPT, and it makes one wonder if this is a future we're heading into - but I think ours will be much darker. What could have been better was the pacing (again) - the story focuses a lot on some aspects of the story, but others, the ones you really want to know about, are few and far between. I greatly enjoyed reading this series, as it evident from me having read this 600 page book within two days. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Todo cambió hace tres años: fue entonces cuando Anastasia y Lucifer desaparecieron; cuando el segador Goddard llegó al poder; cuando el Nimbo retiró la palabra a toda la humanidad, menos a Grayson Tolliver. En este impactante desenlace de El arco de la Guadaña, la trilogía que Neal Shusterman comenzó con Siega, se pondrán a prueba las lealtades y reaparecerán viejos amigos. Pero el rugir del trueno siempre es el preludio de la tormenta, y puede que el ruido del cambio ya haya empezado a resonar entre los portadores de la muerte.

These books continue to use their strange set up to explore big ideas. What if there really was a prophet who really could talk to an all knowing God?
They also remain quite silly though.
They end up in places I'm not very comfortable with morally though, and for all they explore some of the big things, they sit surprisingly glibly with some of the others.
I'm still unconvinced by Citra and Rowen (even though I'm a sucker for Doomed Love normally) but I loved all the bit characters. The librarian who didn't make it as a scythe. Jeri the compitent gender queer ships captain. Even Scythe Rand -
