This book is not a perfect end to the trilogy, and in that sense is it the best suit for this story. This is a series about the folly of gods and humanity and imperfection and mistakes and the beauty of it all—why would it end with a neat little bow? If you’ve gotten this far, you need little persuasion to continue reading, but Jemisin makes it worth your while with a character study that reveals multitudes about this lovely world she’s made.
