As upset as I am that this series is over, this was by far the best book in the series and a very satisfying conclusion. The characters, as always, were fantastic and interacted very well with one another, but there was a certain depth to the character's relationships to each other that was so special in this installment specifically. Contrary to most of the books in this series, there weren't any major new additions to the main group of characters, so it skipped the awkward adjustment period that was in some of the other books. The characters all had enough history to have meaningful relationships, but through it all they maintained a sense of companionship. They never felt fractured as a group.
The plot was as strong in this book as it was in the rest of the books in the series. It is always a little bittersweet to end a series, and especially in a series like this one where the characters are so easy to get attached to, no ending will ever truly satisfy. That being said, the ending of this book felt realistic and it really did wrap up all of the different things going on. I do want more of these characters, but I don't feel like I'm missing something the way the ending played out. I think it also goes without saying that the mythology elements of the story were weaved into the plot perfectly, as always.
I have an endless amount of love for this series and cannot recommend it enough. Of course, read the series in order, but don't skip the conclusion. This book, and this series as a whole, is truly exceptional.
