I’m happy with how many questions were answered in the final book of the trilogy, though I do wish some of it had been spread through the previous two books to reduce some of the confusion and mystery around magic/orogeny. I didn’t like this one as much as the previous two as I found it a bit slower and I had some petty complaints, namely: Nassun is NOT written like a 10 year old and the whole desert struggle didn’t have to happen when Hoa could have transported people.
