I can’t believe it’s over. I probably spent the last 60 pages of this book in tears. I was sad because of some of the things that happened, but more sad because it was finally the end of the quest.

As King notes in his afterword, the ending will make many readers angry. I can’t say it ended the way I wanted it to, but I can say that I’m satisfied with the ending. And how many sagas of seven books end satisfactorily? Not many.

Very well done, Mr. King, and thank you for sharing it with us.
