fairly satisfying conclusion to the trilogy, fills in the crazy backstory (and relevant societal themes) to the whole thing

I didn't find this concluding novel as absorbing as the first two books, but it masterfully pulls everything together in the same wait-who's-talking-now interleaving of viewpoints and timelines, and simulateneously presents themes that seem both on the nose and how did she come up with this epic narrative? And it ends (is it an end?) on some serious emotional notes.
