A great wrap-up to the series, but also probably the worst of the three novels. That isn't saying much as I have loved this entire series, so take the word "worst" very lightly. I found a couple of the plot decisions a bit dumb, predictable, or flat-out contradictory to an established character. There was one in particular concerning Adare that felt both forced and I saw it coming from miles away, although I'll avoid spoiling anything, so I won't be able to explain it. This can all be ignored for the fact that this installment still dishes out loads of action, dark characters, beautiful prose and an overall driving, never-boring plot like the last two novels. Highlights for me out of The Last Mortal Bond were my personal favorite incarnation of Valyn, a fantastic arc that develops Gwenna quite a bit, and a very interesting look at Rassambur.
