Gray Weathersby knows the truth about the Laicos Project, the Order, and the Forgeries—and he knows they must be stopped. But each generation of Forgeries is deadlier than the one before, and now even the most familiar faces—including the girl Gray loves—can't be trusted. To make a stand against the Order, Gray will have to risk it all.

Short and Sweet Review

It’s finally time for Gray and his group of rebels to stop Frank and his army of forgeries. Gray has to be on his A game because the forgeries are becoming harder to detect and they’re deadly.

In this final book of the Taken trilogy we follow Gray and his group as they plan on how they’re going to stop Frank. I feel like this book is a lot like the last book and maybe this trilogy should have just been a duology. Because this book is so similar to book two it felt like nothing was really going on, it was slow. The book picks up towards the end which is when the big confrontation occurs. There was a lot of focus on Gray and Bree’s relationship but at this point I thought that should have just gone their separate ways, I don’t think they were good for each other. I do think that Gray was annoying in this book, it’s like he progressively got worse each book. I really don’t have a lot to say about this book that I haven’t said about the first two books. I wish there was more that went on in this book but there wasn’t and because it was the last book we can predict what will happen.

Overall, the ending of the book was good and I liked it. The book as a whole not so great. I do think the series started off strong but it definitely hit a decline as the series went on.
