Still, Bray's writing was as beautiful as always. My goodness, the imagery she can conjure. Even the author's note was a treat to listen to (I got the audiobook). I thought the ending was fitting, with its atmosphere of tentative relief and happiness but still with a hint of danger brewing on the horizon. All in all, I adore this series and I marvel at the way Bray was able to weave a tale with such a large cast that dealt with so many themes.
