This was an excellent end to the series! All of the loose ends are wrapped up and the myths and folk tales included in the books all weave together to create a satisfying ending. The book is almost too short, but I still think everything ends up the way it should have. I also loved how this book takes the previous religious world building and incorporates it into the plot even more. It makes the high fantasy world building element of the book a central focus rather than a passing aspect.
