Ah, damn. I wasn't ready for this to end yet--especially not how it ended. It is emotional. 
 I think this is going to be one of my favorite fantasy series of all time, and for all the same reasons that I can see many other people not liking it. It was incredibly satisfying to see it laid out so clearly--the world so many people are fighting for, how horrific it would actually be--but with someone like Kelsea Glynn in a position to do something about it (which is more than we can say for ourselves, here in the real world). 
 This is a bitter, bittersweet ending to an outstanding trilogy. I can't decide what I'm looking forward to more: seeing something new from Erika Johansen, or reading this one again.
