A wonderfully satisfying end to this amazing series. I had a very strong idea of how the main conflict would resolve and I was so wrong. (In case anyone's curious: my prediction was that Dara would realize what the peri's knife was for, realized Manizheh's life was tied to his own and find a way to commit suicide with the knife, redeeming himself in the process. I don't know why I was so convinced, it just felt like it would tie up the loose ends.) But I loved the real ending more!
I will read anything S.A. Chakraborty writes.
