I enjoyed the trilogy, but didn't find it particularly outstanding overall.
This is the first series (a trilogy) I finish in a very long time. Leverang a longer than usual time off, also away from computers and TVs, I enjoyed reading The Fifth Season, The Obelisk Gate, and finally back at home, The Stone Sky. This a story about motherhood mostly, and love. I like how well rounded the story is concluded, only at the last paragraphs fully understanding the way the full story is displayed.
