Brief Synopsis: (Taken from Goodreads) "War," says the Mayor. "At last." Three armies march on New Prentisstown, each one intent on destroying the others. Todd and Viola are caught in the middle, with no chance of escape. As the battles commence, how can they hope to stop the fighting? How can there ever be peace when they're so hopelessly outnumbered? And if war makes monsters of men, what terrible choices await? But then a third voice breaks into the battle, one bent on revenge - the electrifying finale to the award-winning "Chaos Walking" trilogy, Monsters of Men is a heart-stopping novel about power, survival, and the devastating realities of war.

My Review:

I give this book a 5 out of 5. 

This was an amazing conclusion to the trilogy. You really get to see the way the Mayor has evolved throughout the story, as this super-villain that's supposedly turning good. Viola is, of course, completely unconvinced, but Todd thinks he's really making a change in the Mayor. And he has. 

Whether it's for the better or not, you will have to see for yourself in this harrowing conclusion.

You can purchase Monsters of Men through Amazon in either hard copy or Kindle format.
