I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Do you like unique new worlds? Science fantasy? Failed Chosen Ones? Flawed but determined heroes? Plot twists you wont see coming, and plot twists that are satisfying even when you do see them coming? The Final Strife deserves every accolade that I can throw its way and more. If you like Gideon the Ninth, The Fifth Season, or Red Leopard Black Wolf give The Final Strife a try. You won't regret it.I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Do you like unique new worlds?

While I often find anthologies to be much like Forrest Gump's box of chocolates-- even if you like it as a whole, you never know exactly what you'll get out of each story-- Agatha Christie's work is polished and clean enough that the whole thing evened itself out. Fans of Christie's established characters get their doses of Poirot, Miss Marple, and Tommy & Tuppence, and even the lesser-known Mr. Satterthwaite gets a turn. Most interestingly, the first story in the collection is the rarely anthologized "Three Blind Mice", a story which has only ever been published in the US. "Three Blind Mic" forms the basis of "The Mousetrap", a stage play which ran continuously in London's West End from 1952-2020 (until forced to close by the Covid-19 pandemic), and which has a reputation for swearing audiences to secrecy about the twist ending. Be warned! That said, every story is a polished gem, even if any particular gem isn't quite to your tastes.While I often find anthologies to be much like Forrest Gump's box of chocolates-- even if you like it as a whole, you never know exactly what you'll get out of each story-- Agatha Christie's work is polished and clean enough that the whole thing…
