God this was so incredibly devastating. Such a brutal way to write about war with so many twists and jaw-dropping moments. The writing here is incredible and the characters' dynamics are so well done despite everyone being cruel and morally gray in their own corrupted ways. What a formidable trilogy and incredible conclusion to such a dark, violent, and cruel narrative about war. I'm so glad nothing was sugar-coated but damn it hurt.
