The NPCs in this Village Sim Game Must Be Real!

This is officially the first piece of literature I have ever spent money on. I can sing its praises as much as I like, but my score should be enough to let anyone know the standard of quality we're dealing with. My time here is better spent talking about the issues (and yes, there are issues) with this story. Starting with, by far, the biggest one of all: It ends. What am I supposed to do now? Do I just sit around and try to find the next best thing? No. I've been spoiled. I spent a week at the Ritz Carlton and now I haveto go back to a mud hut in the middle of nowhere. Sure, there are plot holes and contrivances. But really, the dangling plot threads are the bigger problem; especially during the third book. And that's just looping back to the fact that this story ends! The author says there might be a fourth if this sells well enough. So here's hoping I can actually find out where all the loose ends lead.
