It was an amazing series, if your copy doesn't have the epilogue, you should find it and read it.
Such a fun series, it was never a bore, even when focusing on the boring humans, in hindsight every writing choice in this book is perfected to be what it is.

Ok so, the beginning skipped part of the company splitting up and i feel like that was a part of the story that should not have been skipped and it kinda drew me out of the story for a while. the middle 3rd was good and felt much more like the rest of the series compared to the 1st third. The climax of the series happened about 2/3 of the way in so the left an entire third of the book to wind down and actually end...while it covered all bases, it felt overly drawn out to me. Still a good book, i enjoyed it, but the weakest of the 3.
