About this eBook

From Orson Scott Card, the internationally bestselling author of Ender’s Game, comes the riveting finale to the story of Rigg, a teenager who possesses a special power that allows him to see the paths of people’s pasts.

In Pathfinder, Rigg joined forces with another teen with special talents on a quest to find Rigg’s sister and discover the true significance of their powers. Then Rigg’s story continued in Ruins as he was tasked to decipher the paths of the past before the arrival of a destructive force with deadly intentions. Now, in Visitors, Rigg’s journey comes to an epic and explosive conclusion as everything that has been building up finally comes to pass, and Rigg is forced to put his powers to the ultimate test in order to save his world and end the war once and for all.

Ratings and reviews

The story arc was good and it came to a decent resolution (but still left room for future installments). There were a couple continuity problems in the middle but nothing that couldn't be gotten past. The communication with the mice caused most of the issues but also allowed us insight into Rigg's (or Noxon's) interpretation of their motives. Two solutions would be for the mice to evolve telepathy or larger bodies that could create human audible speech.

To much repetitive dialog. A least the author manages to end the story of the series so I DO NOT have to buy another book. Still it was an interesting read just to see what developes in each character.

Love the author for the enders game series and love this series even more as I prefer more fantasy then sci-fi. This is the best merger between both worlds I have seen a great ending on an awesome trilogy. Sci-fi and Fantasy readers will love the series.
