As the ending of the series, it more than delivered, with some of if not the best worldbuilding I have ever seen in my life (the other books in the series also had really good worldbuilding but this one took it to the next level) and everything is wrapped up better than I thought possible. The character arcs & relationships between characters are really well written and I got emotional at quite a few points. Only issue with the book was that a couple chapters dragged a little but overall one of the best books I have ever read.

5.0

Wow, what an end! Okay, it wasn't perfect, but it really brought everything together brilliantly. I don't know that there's anything unique to add for this book that I didn't have in the previous reviews. What made this one that little bit better was having more of the history and world building expanded.
