Intense conclusion to the trilogy (although there’s definitely much more of her life and this Universe to explore, should the author so choose). Again eschewing easy “happily ever after” dynamics. And as much as I’ve found myself craving more simplistic and reassuring reading in these tough times, I really appreciate the complexity and indepth story telling here. Things didn’t go as I expected nor as I wanted, but mayhaps they went where they needed to go (or inevitably were going). Good little adventure and wrap up. Really tough situations, once again on the brink of war. Loved all the cultural history and fascinating details in this world. Learning to accept oneself and utilize ones power and gifts, despite external pressures. No easy answers, but necessary choices and actions must be taken. Good stuff.
