The ending didn't bring any conclusion to the trilogy... most likely to leave things open for another trilogy to follow. I will definitely not attempt any further additions to the series.
I fully agree on this. I liked the first book, the 2nd one was OK, the 3rd a huge disappointment. In the 2nd book I thought in the 3rd things will speed up and the ending will be rewarding. But NO. The 3rd book degenerates into excessive whining by one of the protagonists and not much more. Even the subplots do not move anywhere. Too bad, because the characters and the world was really interesting.
