I have been waiting for this book with anticipation and a bit of sadness. I knew the author planned to end the series with this, the fifth book. While I love the world and characters she had created, I am sad to see them end. However, I can appreciate an author who knows how to do an ending with grace and finesse – and Anderson definitely does.
If you have read along with my blog, you know that I need my fantasy reads to be relatable and logical even when the subject matter may not be. Every book in this series has done just that. I have enjoyed every trip I have taken into Jior and each book was a lovely escape.
I cannot wait to see where this author is going to take us next. Wherever it is – I’m on board!
