I didn't cry a whole bunch when it ended and I knew there was no more. Only a little.

I didn't feel so sad because I wanted more of the story and plot. I like stories to end. I was sad because I had come to the end of such a perfect synthesis of art, philosophy, theology, psychology. This book is science fiction doing what only science fiction can do, and using that mode to explore some of the deepest questions we can face. A brilliant book, and a perfect sequel to its equally brilliant predecessor, The Sparrow.
