A good conclusion to the series. The last hundred pages or so are mostly characters giving philosophical monologues, which kind of drags the pacing to a halt. I personally would have been fine with a less tidy and wrapped up ending, yet from the meticulousness of the rest of the novels, it is to be expected that all plots needed neat resolutions.
