Title: Books of Babel series. [Open Spoilers]

Just finished the third book.  Was good, drooped a little in the middle, but finished reasonably strong.

Anyway, this is a place for people to discuss any parts they see fit.

I have the first book, but haven't gotten to it yet. I'll get started on it.

I've read the first book, and it was pretty fun. Not a ton of talking points left to it. Maybe some basic "Whats deeper in the tower" but other than that it wrapped up pretty completely.

I'm about 80% of the way through book 2, and I'm getting the sense that this particular story was conceived as the Tower itself. Most of the work seems to have been done on describing the tower and the fantastic things in it. He does a great job, but I'm growing kind of tired of it all. There's definitely a lot of building up for the next book, and maybe something amazing will happen in the last few chapters, but I think I might take a break before moving on to the next book.
