A solid end to an excellent series.  I didn't quite love The Empire of Gold as much as the two books that came prior to it -- I feel like there were some aspects of the plot that were more drawn out than necessary while others needed more attention; I also feel quite strongly that

the suggestion of romance between Nahri and Ali should've definitely just been left out entirely because it wasn't needed + added nothing.

  I do like, though, how the series has concluded overall, and give the series 5 stars as a whole.

Wow this was a rare series where the sequels either stayed the same quality or got better.
