Description	My final concern with the book lies in the ending. While it's somewhat surprising and often quite emotional (particularly concerning a character whose name would be a major spoiler), it also feels very "pat". It's a little too neat in how all the loose ends are tied up for the best outcome (although to be fair, this was foreshadowed occasionally). This is particularly noticeable near the end, when some of the actions and capabilities of the main characters come perilously close to "out of nowhere" abilities. All those issues aside, I found it to be a very solid book. It was addictive to read, and often quite emotional. I strongly recommend it for readers of the earlier books in the trilogy, and the trilogy itself for readers looking for an excellent fantasy series.
