Most people die yes, the mother and sister live, the king and queen of the human and elf kingdom die, and most of the mercenary group except for like 1 or 2 .Tess is neither dead or alive she has some one else inhibiting her body. However this may change later I haven't been up to date with the novel.

Sure thing I use this website, it's free haven't had to pay or anything when I used it. It's been awhile so I'm not sure if there are any changes.
