Is Alecto said to be the last book?

Yes, Nona was meant to be the first chunk of Alecto which was to form the final book of the trilogy.

I did not. That actually seems difficult to believe unless the dolls in questions are M3gan Barbies. Which, creepy horror movie elevator pitch there. Instead of straight up murdering people with violence, they kill by giving ten year old girls bulimia.

Perhaps the fan buzzed into the yawning maw of Tor's marketing department and triggered a preplanned response?

(I'm mostly kidding, that seems a bit 3D chess.)
