Rose concludes with an ending which feels somewhat hollow due to actions which were once again guided and not gleaned from our heroine's own experience and a wish to persevere, instead she was instructed in how to succeed. While the story does have a moral satisfaction in ending the tyrannical rule over the land, the manner by which Drucilla was punished didn't have the worthwhile impact her actions deserved for such cruel abominations by allowing her to escape justice. As such, the reward for our protagonists appeared rushed and seemed to allow a convenient plot device to take hold all to end the series on a hopeful manner, but if this insures us for a meaningful sequel, then I am all in favor to see how Rose will overcome her lack of moral strength and become the heroine we all know she can become if given meaningful time.
