Definitely a worthy conclusion. I love how this book really explore religious indoctrination on both sides of the wall with both Saintstone and Featherstone being just as bad as each other, completely absorbed by hate and almost hypnotised by their charismatic leaders. This book got dark in places, like almost Game of Thrones levels of dark and I’m glad it did because I really hammered home the message of blind hatred and following your leaders without question. I think the ending, though anticlimactic, felt realistic and I was satisfied with how it all ended. I’m really glad I picked this series up.
