Wonderfully crafted ending to the series. I loved almost everything about it. I have not read Stormlight Archive yet, but I have read Secret History and the Secret Novels, so I know a little about the Cosmere beyond Scadrial. My one and only complaint is that
I was very confused by Autonomy as an entity. Like, all the other shards I know of make sense to me- Preservation wants to keep everything the same forever, and Ruin wants to destroy everything always. But what the actions and motivations of Autonomy do not line up with the name?? Idk, maybe it makes more sense when you’ve read Stormlight.
Everything else was perfect!
