I really enjoyed the first 3 books in this series, but getting through this last one was like watching a movie that could have been shorter.

1.0

Even more disappointing than book 3. 

The translator was clearly checked out on this one. 

Sure we got answers to the world’s greatest mystery, but at the expense of the other characters’ storylines, the political intrigue, and suspense from the first two books.  

Should have stopped after book 2.

I loved the mirror visitor quartet, and am sad to say goodbye to Ophelia, Thorn, and the rest of the amazing characters.
Although this book could be confusing at times, the world building, gentle love story, and found family is truly remarkable!

I hold this series dear to my heart. The concluding novel was complex, adding even more details to the world that haven’t been fully developed in previous novels. This made the material more dense that the others. Initially, I was heartbroken with the ambiguous ending and the loss of some characters. But, after reflecting and reading some reviews, I soon learned that the author’s intention was to have the audience interpret their own ending to Ophelia and Thorn’s story. There are themes of having one’s own destiny and to not let any “creator” take control of one’s life and choices, which is why I think the author (creator) made this ending the way it is. My heartache just shows how close I became to these characters, which is a sign of a great story.
