I must say for all the action and adventure in the beginning of this book, I could not for the life of me understand the chosen direction for the ending. And that epilogue, I wish I could unread that! ruined the whole thing for me, I will endeavor to pretend it does not exist. However, if you like to see the hero settle down, step right up. Aside from not being my cup of tea, it was a beautifully written book, and a decent ending off of a saga.
