This is a case of an ultimately very good book being brought down a bit by an ending that I didn't love. To avoid spoilers, I just felt that a lot of things happened that were not properly set up to feel earned. Besides that, however, I loved the character arcs in this book the most of the series so far. We really explored the world more, which is fantastic.
