Every time I feel like the pace is entirely too slow for a final act, there is just enough character and world building to keep me going. That said, this feels more like book 3 of a 5 book series. Maybe it is more like book 3 of a 15 book series. Still like it though and the female touch is on character moments is very welcome.

Its almost like Hobb didn't know this was the last book in the trilogy. The pace is nearly identical to the last two books. Not sure if that is impressive or not.

Hobb very easily makes me angry about propaganda in a setting i never actively associate with it.

Hobb is good at making things very costly, but it also hits the pace quite a bit. Still makes it believable and I hope it earns me a more satisfying end.
