this is.......so Much. Almost 1000 pages. I'm not cut out for this kind of high fantasy shenanigans and I resent having been trapped into reading this series. Anyway it's been such a long journey, and there are just so many characters, that I had to spend like 2 cumulative hours reading various Throne of Glass wiki pages to just comprehend this. I'm sure it would have been a better reading experience if I had re-read the rest of the series before this one but HONESTLY who has that kind of TIME

Anyway I feel like every chapter is like "Oh no, there's an insurmountable difficulty................but wait, we can surmount it with this previously-unusable magic technique/item/person!!!!!" Presumably there was a lot of groundwork laid for this in previous books but as stated before.......who can remember

anyway whew I guess this was a satisfing ending? mostly I feel that a weight has been lifted from me and I am now free from the burden of this series. I mean, I realize that I entered into a relationship with the Thone of Glass series as a consenting adult but...whew.
