Done!
Yes, that last puzzle is master-level stuff. Although much of it is just wandering around amid highly imaginative scenery until you find the right stuff, the mirror maze takes some figurin'. It's the only place in the game that I had to take brief notes. You do have to figure that out by yourself, but it's doable and has quite a surprise when you solve it. Mostly, though, the clues you get for the rest of the three-part (with subparts) puzzle are good.
Update: (Hmmm. Just checked the WTs--after I finished--for the mirror maze. There is something that didn't register with me. The clue works, but I found another way through--and not by luck. However, had I registered the clue I wouldn't have needed my notes.)
But HA! I figured out a Jane Jensen mega-puzzle without a WT, and that's always something to crow about.
I enjoyed the ending. Some reviews say that it's too brief and didn't explain everything. I was quite satisfied with it, and I thought it did explain everything, although some of the explanation relied on inference.
I will not reveal if my earlier speculations were correct or not. Play the game and find out for yourself.
All in all, highly satisfying. Lovely game, if too short and waaaay too slow, but the story is up to Jensen's usual standards. I will grind out a review in a day or two. Gonna be a good one with some quibbles.
