review 1: A good conclusion to the trilogy. The jumping around among characters didn't really work for me, especially since lots of the stories didn't really come together in the end, and some of the characters I was much more interested in than others.Also there was a lot more forgiveness than what felt realistic to me. And lots of the threatened traumas didn't come to pass, which also felt unrealistic. But some people did pay the price for their misdeeds, at least, and perhaps earned some redemption there.
review 2: I really, really enjoyed this trilogy. I thought the main characters were well drawn and enjoyed the various directions their lives and travels took them. The supporting characters are also very well written, with detailed story lines of their own. I lik... moreed how the author avoided the predictable "and the bad guys all died hideous deaths and the good guys lived happily ever after" method of tying up the various story ends. The three books were a very satisfying read. Highly recommended. less
