AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the suspicion that the book's ending closely resembles a previously published extract or summary, potentially by the author Weir. The conclusion drawn from the book appears to differ from typical spoilering reviews, suggesting a deeper connection to earlier narratives. Additionally, Wikipedia provides some clues that may support this theory, indicating that the plot may have historical roots or parallels that are not immediately obvious in the text itself.

After finishing the book, I am pretty sure that I have read a short history, or a part of a long history, that has substantially the same plot that the final events. Could it be some extract published by Weir online? I do not think it was just a spoilering review, because the decision driving to the conclusion was different.
