Wow, what a corker.
The only reason I'm not giving this a full 5-stars is because I wasn't completely wowed by the first half, but the last 30% REALLY made up for it. So many plot lines and motivations coming together in such a high-octane way. Loved it.
I'm also not the biggest fan of characters magically (or not in this case) coming back from the dead. It wasn't too egregious in this case, but it always ruins the impact of the character's 'death'. In pretty much all cases I wish characters would just stay dead, however much it hurts me.
