It is a fabulous plot twist. I commend the author for this whole part. I was like - Thank God! It would have been so corny if it was Max.

I would imagine Max has lost all understanding of who she is and so has Ursula. She would have maybe taken it from Max when she died having some form of memory that it was important but not fully understanding why. I think this was a perfect ending.

Also how would Naz and Max co-existed in such a small civilization if Max was to survive?

In the book we are told that Max and Ory met at a football game - maybe this is what the QB was yelling when they first spoke to each other?

I like that Peng doesn't give all the answers, gives the characters depth in that they have a few secrets of their own and it allows the reader to fill in the blanks; much like the shadowless need to.(less)
