This book detailed a very fitting end to a great series.

SpoilerThe ending quite bittersweet but just sweet enough to be happy for our couple.


However, noticed myself getting a bit tired of all of the interjections about the world in the form of monologues that Novik includes in between the characters' dialogue. I'm not sure if I would've been as bothered by this if I hadn't read a review about this particular feature of Novik's writing. But because I had, it was in the back of my mind every time it showed up and began to get tiresome.

Anyway, still a great series and a lovely end to this trilogy. I will miss El and Orion.
