Golden Flames
Like the rest of this series, there were parts where this really dragged, with hours of descriptions of the characters wrestling with their emotions, and parts where there was intense action. This one had aerial dragon action at least, which was fun. The epilogue was a full 2 hours of narration... which is nuts, but I guess makes sense given the length of the total series. My biggest complaint is that one of the reveals really didn't make a lot of sense - it went directly against the very first scene in the series, and some of the events in book 3. Overall I guess it was a satisfying ending the series, with no obvious loose ends left - but I also didn't come away feeling like I was going to miss any of the characters.
