Reviewer: Shorty

Review: I would advise reading this series in order as each book picks up where the last leaves off. In this installment May is back again but in two pieces. What’s scary is that she needs even more magical creatures to sustain her. Very gruesome in the way she obtains that energy.

I was a little leery of new characters being introduced but those feeling changed as the story progressed as each character had a role to play. Action, drama and mystery all play a part of this epic story of good versus evil.

Finn and Redmond fall in love amidst the battle plans and preparations. I love this series and am sad to see it end. I was entranced from beginning to end by the whole series and this story was no exception. Though things start out slow it picks up quickly and delivers a punch.

Fantastic read and highly recommended.
