It was a fine wrap up. It was pretty slow in the beginning, with the same events being recounted by people in different areas of the continent. I didn't read the first series, so I still felt disconnected from the main characters because so much of their characterization relied on you having read the first series. I really enjoyed the chapters with Adaine and Kolin, but part of that is because their stories were built through this series and not constantly referred to in previous ones. I was sad there wasn't more of Berry in this one.
