Valen's views on The Tower and The Hive
4 stars
I just finished reading this book. It's the final book of the Tower and Hive series. The Talents manage to find a way to slow the Hiver's growth (spoiler: it's all to do with smell). The book starts with a quick refresh of previous events. It started to get somewhat murky with how many people there were to keep track of. Overall it felt somewhat anti-climactic.
