Epic endings and secrets revealed, another fine entry into the John Gwynne catalog.

While I really enjoyed certain plot points, this books pace was extremely slow. But, when this book shines it really shines. All the battles are epic, and I really enjoyed the deepening of Maquin and Fidele's relationship. Speaking of Maquin, can that character just catch a break, please?!

I will return to this series to finish, however, I feel the need to take a break.
