Definition

An alternative spelling of epilogue, a concluding section that appears after the main narrative of a book, play, or film.

Kelly Says

The epilog is where authors sneak in last-minute surprises—like revealing what happened to characters 10 years later, or making you question everything you just read by changing the perspective completely!
