Caraval themed deck of cards + card games coming when?

Finale is the third and final book in the Caraval trilogy, and I think in terms of my enjoyment, it ranks second overall. The worldbuilding is really what I love about this series; I like the magical vibes, and while this book definitely expands the worldbuilding even further (which I don't always enjoy), I actually liked the added magical elements. I plan to finish the sequel series now, and we'll see how many opinions on Jacks change now that I'm fresh off a Caraval reread.
The Fates have been released from their cards, and Scarlett and Tella must stop them before they regain control over the kingdom. Of all the books in the series, I think this one is the slowest in terms of pacing. This could be just the life circumstances during my read-through, but the plot is very Tella heavy even though I feel like the majority of the tension comes from Scarlett's chapters. There is a fair bit of action, especially toward the end, but I do kind of feel like the conclusion is a bit anticlimactic. I did really enjoy the suspense built throughout the story, especially in Scarlett's chapters, and I thought the ending was action-packed and eventful. Honestly, Scarlett's chapters are really what kept this from being a lower rating like book two.
I also think that the multi-POV nature of this book helped speed the story along and keep me invested. As I said earlier, Tella's chapters are a bit less interesting. She takes care of the meat of the story (some of the more boring developments and romance issues), but I think I prefer Scarlett to her. I do love Tella's feistiness, and I think she's clever in ways Scarlett isn't, but she's super concerned with romance in this one, and I just don't like Jacks in this series. Scarlett's POVs were more interesting in terms of suspense, so even though I wasn't fond of certain character developments for her, she's still my favorite character. We need more characters in tune with their emotions...literally. Of the main male leads, I prefer Julian to Legend, but I don't really have a reason why. Jacks just makes me mad sometimes, but I don't hate him.
Finale is, as the title suggests, a stunning finale to a beautiful YA fantasy trilogy that highlights sisterly bonds set in a world practically drowning in magic.

4.5/5


SPOILER STUFF
I just have a few details I wanted to mention earlier, but they contain mild spoilers:
1) Are we just ignoring the fact that Tella gave up her firstborn child's secret? When will she do this? Spinoff series, perhaps?
2) Julian's mask at the end was literally the only thing I remembered about the book, and I still don't understand what the point of it was. To make him ugly? Like, why?
3) I completely forgot the count actually died...like I kept waiting for him to come back but apparently I hallucinated him not being dead somehow.
Overall, I just felt like the ending was a bit rushed, and there are a lot of plot points that go unresolved or don't have much development, but I still like the story.
I just wanna know why they bothered to give Julian the mask...
