Уявляю, наскільки важко було придумати достойне закінчення для такої саги, але у Гілла та Родріґеса майже вийшло. Не дотягує до максимума, бо кінець здався трохи сплутаним сюжетно.

5.0

Major rocks fall, everyone dies, though that’s an exaggeration. Several characters die, and it’s plot-relevant but very heavy

This final volume provides a very fitting ending, but beware that it’s even more graphic than earlier volumes.

“Keys turn both ways. You can lock something away... But you can also throw a bolt and set something free.”

 “Secrets are the prisons we make for ourselves.”

What a great finale. It really tied the series up nicely while retaining all of it's creepy, gory elements. I definitely couldn't put it down until I found out how it all ended. This entire series was pretty fantastic. It kept me intrigued the whole time and constantly guessing what would happen next. I wouldn't go into this series lightly though, it's definitely in the horror/gore genre. Read with care!
