Helpful Score: 1

The conclusion. A LOT happens. I'm still confused, to be honest. People pop back up from the dead, have new names, get possessed, get un-possessed, lots of battles, prophecies, etc, etc. Honestly, I felt like I was in a maelstrom reading this book. Just dragged along for the ride. Weeks did such a good job of weaving so much together that I can't pick particular threads to write about, it was all woven so tight. Blint coming back and his ability to still use the little black magic thing was a bit much though.

The reason I only gave it 4 stars instead of 5 was because of the completely unnecessarily large amount of profanity. Over all, this book was devastatingly well written with a fantastic plot. But to interject profanity from the real world, and so much of it, didn't sit well with me at all. Go the Battlestar Galactica route, or better yet, keep it clean. It doesn't add anything at all.
