[QUOTE="huskbcake, post: 6320898, member: 6777169"] I realize this response is 9 year late. But I have no friggin clue what happened in the epilogue. All I know is that I was enjoying the books, and then I got really confused. And then I got mad. I assume that someone summoned the soul back. But he was in the realms of dreams. That could be anything in his body for all we know. So now I'm just pissed off at the series (Sorry). I don't know if in the 9 years since this original post if that epilogue has been expanded on, so if it has, please let me know. Cause as of right now, having just finished and googling to see if there's more, I'm just extremely irritated. I don't wish to re-read to find out if maybe I can find a clue. I feel more like throwing the book at something. Now granted, I still have respect for you as an author for being able to put that much effort into a series and make 3 successful books out of it. I just really don't like the ending. It felt rushed in the last chapter, as in, really? Daine might be dead, and just some small reassurance from Jode is going to make it alright. And, oh, now lets go get stew?! Throughout the entire story Daine stays angry for the longest time and even the love of his life doesn't comfort him in times of distress, but now this paragraph conversation is just it? That seems like it's a cheap way out and it feels like it didn't follow Daine as a character. And the scabbard? We have no idea what it was. Another gift? And who put the summoning circle? Was it Kin? And is it even Daine that said it? It could've summoned something else into his body. Hell, it could've summoned the original owner of the scabbard! And why was Xu knocked out? Seriously? It just seems like a dumb way to end the series. That's just one reader ranting. And it's just how I perceived the books ending. [/QUOTE]
