After a long hiatus, I have finally finished the whole trilogy, the ending of book three, was not the one I was anticipating, I was really sad to see Mr. Bennett, killing off the Divine, some of the greatest slaughter in human history stemmed from religious war brought by the fervor of each faction's belief, the crusades, inquisition to name of few, with that concept running around in my mind, no wonder the Kaj did what he did to the Divinities, it was freedom from divine oppression, Shara, Turyin and Sigurd, were just the latest in a line of deiciders(??? hopefully there is such a word), after the incidents in the first two books, I never imagined they would go after the sons and daughters, as the book progresses, we read the why, how and what, at first I felt the wastefulness of such killings, if only some of these demigods were allowed to live the humane way, they might have some appreciation of the humans, there might have been a way for both divine and humans to live together, but Mr. Bennett was already two to three steps ahead to my way of thinking and the conclusion was most satisfactory........I hope to read another story of this fascinating world....
