A review by rocksrntpeople
The Tengu's Game of Go by Lian Hearn

1.0

All of the characters try to fix their broken vows to Akihime and Yoshimori, but ultimately fail. They restore the realm to peace, but destroy pretty much everything else. I know it's not fair to rate this book so low based on an emotional opinion, but I really hated this entire last volume as far as plot goes. The lead up to this one was disappointing too, but really this made me feel like I never want to read another series again. All of my favorite characters suffer and/or die and all of the ones I hate or don't care for at all get unrealistic happy endings. I never expected a happy ending, but this was just depressing.
