I may never forgive Melliandra's ending. I want to know where she settled. Really I just want more of her story.

Overall, a satisfying conclusion.
My biggest gripe is that all the main characters make it out alive. They are the ones in the worst of the battle's and it's just highly unrealistic, even when it's also a bit of a relief I don't have to grieve anyone. The amount of times someone does die and then actually didn't happens way to often throughout this book as well.

I love Lillis's story and I adore Kieren throughout this book. I enjoyed Melliandra and Shan's relationship. Steli continues to be a favorite character.
