I enjoyed this series from beginning to end with its themes and characters. Here, we have a bit of a time skip and the fallout after Alef colonized most of the world. 

The only thing that stopped me short of 5 stars was the ending got slightly confusing.
Did they meet God at the end? And I can’t take Sola’s adorable child acting so mature at the end. They didn’t place him at an age, but I was thinking 5 – 10ish.
Still, the ending was mostly fitting. 

These worlds that Dahm builds are so enthralling.
