WOW, just... WOW. Masterfully done and a wonderful ending to this series. I love how she managed the different points of view - no just making it chapter by chapter, but by intertwining them in quick snippets, jumping back and forth. Totally kept me enthralled throughout the story! The character development, the furthering of the world-building, the crossover with her other works, all just so well-done. The pacing was spot-on, too, which I think was helped by how the POVs were handled. Now I'm going to contemplate life without these characters...
