Well how am I supposed to know what you mean by "the end." "The end of the series" is a reasonable interpretation. Plus, it's not like a counting error on your part would be very surprising!

Speaking of the end of Confessor, when it first came out the story going around was that Goodkind wrote the last 80 or whatever pages in one sitting to meet a deadline. The catch is, everyone seemed to consider this impressive. My first thought was "it shows."
