[b:The Price of Spring|6065889|The Price of Spring (Long Price Quartet, #4)|Daniel Abraham|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1388902656l/6065889._SY75_.jpg|6242207] exceeded my already high expectations. Good intentions with unintended or unimagined consequences, and all the prices paid—for old hurts, for words said and unsaid, for betrayals, for misunderstandings and misplaced affection, and for love. Always the price of love.

This book (and series) is peopled with characters who are wonderfully imperfect. They inspire love, fear, despair, disgust, wonder, respect, frustration, and satisfaction. They face heartbreaking choices and unbearable decisions. And they persevere. There were a number of relationships that drove the story, but the heart of it always seemed to come back to Otah and Maati. Love, trust, jealousy, betrayal—all played out between them and in their world.

A completely satisfying conclusion to an excellent series!
