Through the third installment, the world continues to expand. This time, the cultures don’t make quite as much impact as the physical surroundings. Mr. Peloquin continues to do a beautiful job with quick sketches filled in with more refined details as the story plays out across the epic scenery within his world. It will be very interesting to see what’s explored next as the tale continues to unfold.Character Development
While there is still change for the characters in this installment, most of the changes occur internally. What drives the Hunter in his travels? Because of these changes, some growth towards the conception of a true hero begins to emerge. However, at this point, the Hunter remains firmly in the arc of an anti-hero; someone who does what they do because they must. He just chooses to make choices in favor of humanity when he can, rather than the demons that make up the other side.
Pacing
Overall the pacing is well done. The action scenes have a nice feel to them – crisp, quick, and a smooth flow. There’s a couple of points where I might quibble about how pieces of the scene play out (which is personal opinion, not anything wrong with Peloquin’s framework.) It’s the slower, connecting scenes that feel a touch laggy – almost as if the tale tried to unravel and a thread got dropped for a beat or two too long. Coming out of these sections, the pacing returns to spot on. Mr. Peloquin does a masterful job not letting the loose weave in one area cause the following scene to feel rushed or constricted.

The Last Bucelarii Book 3 Gateway to the Past Volume 3 Andy Peloquin 9781544110073 Books Reviews
I was so excited when this showed up on my kindle to read . I love this series so much . The first book pulled me in and the second book had me hooked . This book just kept me on the edge of me seat. This book dives deeper into the Hunter and what is fueling him as he tries to out run some demons and getting closer to the secrets of his past .
When we meet the Hunter again he and his young charge Hailen is heading away from the city. They join a caravan where things get pretty bad and the Hunter is forced to use his dagger to protect the young child , who actually calms the demon inside the hunter . When the hunter is forced to kill to keep the child safe, and to find the answers he needs.
I must say that Hailen is the perfect companion for the Hunter . He has such a good calming influence on the Hunter . Hailen is your typical little boy with such a special gift . You just want to cuddle him and hug him and love him . He has his good moments and his typical boy moments of wanting and whining. Buy what child doesn't have those moments .
The hunter in this book is becoming more and more human . He still has his half demon side that wants the blood of the evil . But the human side of him is starting to get his memories back and wants to find out what he was before becoming the Bucelarii . As he remembers the memories , you want to hug him and tell him that things will be ok. You also feel him start to think about his actions and how they work. He is growing and becoming more then just the killing machine he was in book one and two .
The author takes us on an adventure this time . We go along on a caravan ride with people you don't know if you should trust or not . We trek through the desert wasteland . We see him fight the Illusionist Cleric and the demons masquerading as people . The author paints such a stunning picture as you read this book . You will actually cheer for the Hunter and shed a tear every now and then . You will want to take care of Hailen and the hunter . You might get angry with the characters but don't throw your kindle . s are expensive . But I will say you will enjoy this whole series . So if you want a great series check out the Bucelarii series . I suggest you read book one and two so you know what's going on in book three . So if you want a really good dark fantasy series that will leave you wanting more . Check them out , I promise you will not be disappointed
Gateway to the Past is Book 3 in Andy Peloquin’s The Last Bucelarii series.
The Hunter is a driven, conflicted, cold-nerved killer. That’s what I love about him. There’s never a dull moment around this guy.
He’s also rather sexy, if you’re into the bad-boy type.
This is actually my introduction to Peloquin’s series, so I’m a Book Three walk-in. Nevertheless, I never felt compelled to put the book down and start over from the beginning. There is enough background to feed new readers while keeping the pace for fans more familiar with the series. And now, having finished of Book Three, I have already snagged Book One to start this disaster over from the beginning.
When I say disaster, that’s a compliment. Bear with me.
Peloquin knows how to pen a dark tale. He is a master of tone and is adept at using plot and setting to build suspense. There is an overall feel about Peloquin’s world reminiscent of crawling through an old, crumbling storm-drain right before a downpour, wondering when the flood will arrive. And not knowing how to get out.
I found myself a little distanced from the Hunter at first, but I suspect that was intentional on the authors’ part. How does one draw close to a character who doesn’t really know himself? Are you supposed to love a murderous half-demon driven by a screaming dagger to feast off the life-force of the living? But, as I followed the Hunter through this gritty and sometimes gruesome journey into his past, I felt like I got to know him just a bit.
And I liked what I found.
I wouldn’t marry the guy. I’d never hire him as a baby sitter. But I’d go with him on a coffee date.
The Hunter has a strange, inglorious nobility. He doesn’t murder indiscriminately, but picks and choses those he deems deserving of an end. When he has the luxury to pick and choose. But, hey, at least, he tries to have some standards and morals.
He is somewhat capable of attachment. Somewhere in his past is a lost love he feels compelled to find. And in his current story arc, there is a little boy who depends on him. Though, while I’d like to think that the Hunter’s motivation for protecting this child comes from genuinely compassion, I can’t escape the gnawing fear that his motivations are far more base in nature; being around the boy soothes the voices in his mind.
In summary, Gateway to the Past is a well-written, consuming story into the mind of monster who has been separated from his life, his morals, his purpose, and his memory. Basically, he’s lost everything and isn’t aware enough to miss it. This is a fascinating journey of self-exploration into the haunted mind of a demon. Peloquin delivers on his promises and doesn’t hold back. He doesn’t spare the weak-stomached. His writing is exactly what it needs to be to make this work. That’s a big recommend.
I’m going to enjoy this series.
Through the third installment, the world continues to expand. This time, the cultures don’t make quite as much impact as the physical surroundings.
