Stylistically this last installment to the series is very different from the first three books, and unlike the others it's also Earth-bound, which made me a bit leery to start with. But what do you know, the author managed to wrap the story up very well, and even gave it an ending I (for once) have nothing to complain about. 4th book in the Anomaly quartet. This last book is very different from the other three; suddenly I found literary references (indeed a reference to McCarthy's The Road mentioned was one story I found myself thinking about as I read this book). Overall a good quartet, and each book could be read as a stand-alone, nut best read in order. SPOLIER: Set on earth after the anomaly has engulfed it, world order has changed, people have become caught in looks of dying and waking again at various stages of their lives. A new religion has sprung up embracing this new way of living. The world's population had depleted before the anomaly arrived due to a human released virus that contaminated billions worldwide. The protagonist travels across USA to Europe, and London to confront his absent wife and her new lover, the leader of a cult, until the anomaly finally leaves Earth.

Join an awe-inspiring journey through a world where death has stopped in the finale of James Smythe's acclaimed Anomaly Quartet. Decades ago, a vast object called the Anomaly was discovered moving through space. Missions sent to explore it found that anyone entering the Anomaly was unable to die. It kept moving, across our solar system, until finally the Anomaly enveloped Earth. Thirty years later, on the West Coast of the US, Theo hears that his missing wife has been sighted - in London. He's sick, and getting worse, so he sets off to find her. Theo's quest will take him across continents, through abandoned cities and new communities, meeting with bandits, artists, and cultists, murderers and heroes and survivors. Because this is a world of humanity at its absolute worst, and at its very best. A world where everything has been irrevocably altered, yet somehow still remains the same.

I quite liked it, and in particular it’s a rare case of the fourth book in a series where I didn’t feel it mattered too much that I had not read the other three. ( )
