For a moment there, I thought they would not get to live the life they both want and deserve. What with Mal being the Third Amplifier and both of them knowing he must die in order for Alina to absorb the power within Mal. No words, just heartbreak. I did love the epilogue and how they rebuilt Keramzin to be a better home for others than it was for them.

It deserves all the hype it's getting. I cannot wait to go dive back into the Grishaverse with "Six of Crows" next.
