I think I have guessed what the ending is, and I am only at book 2, chapter 14. I was pretty sure of it before, having heard hints of 'sacrifice', but it is pretty well telegraphed now. If I am wrong, I will inform you.

According to Aldous Huxley, D.H. Lawrence once said that Balzac was 'a gigantic dwarf', and in a sense the same is true of Dickens.

I have not reached the end yet, but I don't think I am far wrong with my 'guess'. I could have done without the give-aways in the chapter notes though. Do editors of classic literature assume you know the plot before reading it? I deliberately did not read the introduction to avoid plot spoilers.
