Books like Legacy

3.5I'm rounding up on this one, and it's sort of for the whole trilogy, because while the writing still has some issues like clunky dialogue and exposition and not always being able to figure out how we get from point A to point C while seeming to bypass point B - overall I still just like the story and the world and characters.I mean, it has magic, mystery and mayhem, deals with the veil between the worlds, has intrigue, betrayal, redemption, suspense... in some ways there's not much not to like. I especially liked how we got a bit more of Edgar's backstory in this one, and see him sort of step up a bit.My biggest issue - aside from the aforementioned writing issues (and, in fairness, it has gotten much better from book one to book three) - is that the ending left a few too many threads dangling.I mean, all of the main points of the story are tied up, but I'd like to know more about what becomes of the characters down the line. How do the events of this story affect them going forward?I guess, in a way, it's a mark of a good story to want more, and to care about the characters enough to be concerned for their futures. There is that old piece of advice about leaving them wanting more... but I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, at the end, because there just seems like there's just a little bit more of the story that needs telling.Overall, though, as I said, I like the story and I can definitely see myself doing a reread at some point in the future. (Not onerous, in the least, since I think I got through all three in about a week, all things considered.)
