This wasn’t QUITE the conclusion nor the series I was hoping for after loving the first series I read by this author but you can’t win them all right? It was still a decent conclusion and an overall decent series but it just didn’t hit in the same way as other work I’ve read by this author. I kept hoping for just a little bit more and I never got that little but more. I still do recommend it, John Gwynne is an excellent high fantasy author!
