I enjoyed this quite a lot, and I am glad to have finished the Old Kingdom books (mostly, I have not read the short stories or the book about Sabriel's father). This felt like a really good, solid conclusion to all the parts of the story that came before, and I hope Sabriel, Lirael, and the rest of their family get a few years of peace and quiet and rest. And it was nice to see that Mogget is still Moggeting, even though he's been released from his service to the Abhorsen.

Also, before this I had thought one could probably skip Clariel in a reading of the series, but I think having read it makes the end of this one more powerful. 

I do really miss Tim Curry as narrator of these books, though I did like Heather Wilds. She did a great job with everyone's voices.
