This one made me smile. Quality little jaunt in the multiverse. Neat world in the cosmere with a story that helps resolve and will move forward some characters. Quirky, unique, and cute. Don't read too deep into it, just enjoy the ride.

I like books that end. I mean they are sad because you say farewell but it's a good thing. I am glad to have had the opportunity to enjoy this world building. It was a unique magic system with unique interactions and some very memorable characters.

I did find it funny just how much in frightening situations they use an 'Oh god..' kind of context when realistically I never felt much if any religiosity within the whole trilogy to create an indoctrinated approach to the concept. They did however have enough rock-and-rolling environments to create explicates that I could appreciate. hehe!
Thanks RJB for another wild ride.
