This book wraps up the Glass Library series. It's fast, but all of the plotlines are wrapped up. And it certainly starts off quickly with two different kidnappings, one being the deep betrayal of a friend. There's also a few deaths (only one on page).
Sylvia gets some more time with her father. He is not impressed by having a daughter at first, but softens enough to not only give her a family heirloom, but to teach her how to use paper as a weapon. He shows her how to do it without even having to speak the spell out loud (the fact that she can do it shows just how powerful she is.)
With all of that happening, the end did feel like there was a lot going on in the last 16-20 minutes of listening but it was all happy, happy, joy, joy.
