Synopsis

In this conclusion to the Star Shards Chronicles, powerful and terrifying invaders have arrived from a parallel dimension, and only the Star Shards can prevent the destruction of the human race.

Six children were conceived at the exact moment that the star Mentaras-H went supernova, and the explosion transformed their souls into living star fragments. Now the Star Shards face the ultimate battle—and the true purpose of their gifts will be revealed, for it is no accident they have these powers. Once despised for their "deformities," the Star Shards are now worshiped and feared as gods. Their power is unlimited, as is the temptation to abuse it. But a new and terrifying force has torn a wound in the universe, infecting it like a deadly, intelligent virus. Only one power exists that could conceivably prevent the extermination of the human race: the Star Shards. But only if they can put aside their titanic egos and join forces one final time.

Acclaimed author Neal Shusterman's "talent for depicting superhuman characters with human strengths and weaknesses lends depth and immediacy to a tale of cosmic proportions" (School Library Journal) in this stunning conclusion to a visionary trilogy.

Oh boy! I have a lot of thoughts. It took me a while to finish this book, and I enjoyed reading it, you are probably confused by the rating then, but it turns out there are some things I just can't get past.

Goodreads review by Choco on October 28, 2024

La historia me encantó, aunque lo mucho que se aferró cierto personaje a su punto negativo, me pareció excesivo. Que un personaje capaz de lo que ella hizo, se salga prácticamente de rositas y que el personaje más noble de todos, tuviera un final tan flojo (después de hacernos esperar tres libros po......more

And....Book 3 goes a bit off the rails. This book was ENTIRELY too long and went on several tangents that were completely unnecessary. The character assassination of Lourdes continues. Everyone is CRAZY overpowered. The characters literally seem to just wander through things until their needed at th......more

Goodreads review by Nicolette on August 07, 2017

Finally, finished with this trilogy.. Neal Shusterman really did a great job in my opinion in wrapping up the series. There are times when it's hard to go through because this book is 500+ pages and the story is too complex at some point to understand. This book needs a map, just sayin' because ther......more
