Also COVID-19 book 8.
Overall I thought all the loose ends in the series were tied together nicely and I was satisfied with the ending of this leg of the history of the First Empire. The nod to Royce in the final chapter was a great touch.
I loved how the shades of gray to the characters were emphasized through their journey through the afterlife and their trials through the abyss. No characters were truly good or bad in the end.
That being said, I felt way too much time was spent on the characters stuck in the afterlife and I would have loved more time back on Elan spent with Suri and Persephone in the time leading up to Mawyndule and Nyphron's final fight. I definitely missed getting in those two characters' heads in the latter books.
