Are you tired of great books with terrible endings? Books that have great promise, crest the hill of the climax, and slam into a brick wall, plot lines and arcs splattered across the last few chapters. The author steps back, looks at the carnage and assures you someone finds the mess beautiful.

This is a beefy book, no doubt about it. But it's a beautiful book. With a satisfying ending. Not everything is perfect. You might not be happy with how it ends. But you'll be satisfied, which more than I can usually say.
