First off, this did not read like your average 500 page book. This book was very fast paced and held my attention. 

I enjoyed most of the character roles. The writing was spectacular. 

I will say I do wish Randall and Vyry could have been together. I know Vyry waited as long as she could but I would have loved to see what became of them together as a couple. 

I’m also glad Jim was able to go off to school. I wonder how Innis was able to bring the new crop in without him but I’m glad Jim got away. 

Vyry was such a strong person and endured a lot. I’m thankful she was able to have some type of happy ending. And as it stands, the Master and his family seemed to get what they had coming as well.
