Overall, I think this was a good book, but the ending left me feeling a bit flat. I try to be vague here and not include any big spoilers, but I do speak on some of the content in order to make my point. Proceed with caution if you don’t want any details.

It is a story that starts with Thanos having absolute power over the universe having united all of the infinity stones. With the power of the Infinity Gauntlet he goes on a rampage and kills nearly everything in the known and unknown Universe, including Earth.

However, before their demise, earth’s mightiest heroes have called upon his grandfather, Kronos to try and stop him. Thanos is soon outsmarted and defeated by his grandfather. Having lost all his power, and everything else, Lady Death, the one who he always seeks to impress and please comes to meet him. His mistress decides to play a strange game with him where she sends him into many different bodies to see if he can accomplish some task that is never really laid out for us.

Thanos goes into the body of one of his servants and does a number of things, some of which are not exactly admirable. Then he moves to the body of a Kree and ultimately the body of a human in some strange world. All the while we have no idea what he is supposed to be doing.

Then, as abruptly as it starts, we are at the end of the book, something happens and then it’s all over. What exactly was the point of this journey he took throughout all those bodies? I was waiting for some kind of realization or payoff that simply never came. It felt like all that buildup led nowhere.

I enjoyed the read, but I wasn’t satisfied with how it ended. It felt a bit cheap and pointless.
