I don't even know where to start.  I won't talk about plot at all, so no real spoilers here, just generalities.Arc level: This book finishes the Arc believably and elegantly.  It tied the major plots up and answered all those character plots I have been wondering about.  There was no furrowed brow when the questions were answered, and yet I didn't really see it coming, not the full scope of it.On the character level: Tiera has grown up, no longer the spoiled angry girl but a young woman you are proud to root for.  When she stumbles it hurts to see it happen, and her triumphs feel good.  This is a character I was pulled into and emotionally invested in.  Most of Mr. Powers books manage this, but he took it to a new level in this last book.  At least to me.Technical: The writing was up to his usual high standard and flowed well, I blew through it despite the length in two sittings.  It would have been one if not for those pesky things called sleep and work.This book is definitely my new favorite for the Young Ancient series and I'm looking forward to the next.
