The character development in this book—and series—is fantastic. Tyler sheds his goldenboy persona but not his integrity and heroics. Scarlett proves herself to be more than just diplomatic. Kal…that’s spoilers, I think. Auri is…very powerful and is so open-minded. Finian is quick as a whip and I’m very proud of this fictional character. Zila does find happiness. Chooses happiness.
And Saedii is cutthroat as ever. We don’t see her too much but a certain someone does.
The story itself was great. I’m a big fan of stories that have an explosive climax. In fact, this whole book felt like one big climax. There was so much going on, so many plot twists, so many “oh WHAT” moments. I read it in two days because I just wanted to see what would happen next.
For those of you worried, it is a happy ending. I don’t think that’s a spoiler. I just prefer to know before reading books what sort of ending it’ll be so I can prepare myself. Enjoy :)

Jay Kristoff, one of the authors of Aurora's End, is very problematic. So, if you are interested in this book series buy them secondhand or get them at the library.

This series was very enjoyable to me and the final book did not disappoint. Of course not everything was amazing and there are some things I would change. Multiple times throughout the series, and especially this book, I felt like the characters were reduced to a few traits or people. I also didn't love the time travel route they went with. I overall liked this book, but it wasn't the best I've read.

The final book in the series hinges on particular elements that are not normally my cup of tea, so I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed it. While things are chaotic, it tied together really well and gives a satisfying ending. I love every member of Squad 312, and this is a series I know I will reread.
