What an amazing ending to an amazing series.

I've been fortunate enough to have the opportunity to read an early copy of this much-anticipated finale, and I have to say that Wendy did not disappoint! It was full of heart-stopping action, suspense, some super sweet moments between characters that I've come to love, awesome world-building along with villains we love to hate, some seriously heartbreaking moments for a few of our characters, and tension.

So. Much. TENSION. Of all kinds really.

I found myself wanting to stop reading because I knew bad things were coming, but also not able to stop reading because I NEEDED to know how this would end. This entire series was unique in its focus on the lives of our MCs before the invasion. We get to see how they lived normal lives before all sh*t hit the fan, which really enabled me to empathize with their trials and struggles and triumphs. All of the characters were so relatable and lovable and essential to the story because they brought a certain level of humanity and laughter to the group, which the Baelese so clearly lacked.

Even though this series highlights our gullibility and initial weakness as a lesser race, it's also a story of our perseverance and determination and compassion and love and ability to come together for a common goal. The story is ultimately full of hope in humanity's goodness, and I loved following along with the entire gang (even though I was biting my nails the whole time). Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend this series!! The ending was gratifying, though I wished we could have gotten a little more elaboration on Remy and Tater in the 'aftermath'. Still, a definite must-read.
