Hats off, this was a great end of the series. I would love to see more 4.5 stars, It made me cry so much, couldn't help not giving it 5 stars. [image]
Hats off, this was a great end of the series. I would love to see more of this universe though, so I really hope that Benedict Jacka will give us more.
It was a fun, witty, great, amazing series, with a very complex set of characters and a great plot. What I loved most was the mash of good and bad in the characters, the real struggles they felt when taking ethical decisions, and how hard it was sometimes to do the right thing. Loved the 'realness' of it all....more

Ok, so I enjoyed the end of the part with the Asarlai. It was a bit too rushed, yeah, and I would have loved it to have some more pages, but it's what we're expecting, at this point, for this author. Everything happens at a 1.5 speed.
Love the character growth and where the story is going.
Yes, I expected the series to end here (it was supposed to be a trilogy, right?), but I'm happy that it doesn't. It goes on with Traitor's Folly.
You'll definitely want to read that as well!...more

Was it wow? Nope, not even close.
But it was well-written and it made me want to read the next chapter. And the next. And the next.
Overall, the characters were annoying at times and idiots at others, and I can't say that I liked them too much. The plot was fun, yes, but it had some gaps. The world-builder wasn't great, although it was interesting.
So, the question is, why did I like this series, right? Well, I have no idea. Maybe it was the writing style, or the plot, the fast-paced action, maybe it's because I just love circus books (I really do!), or maybe just because I was in a weird funk. I don't know.
What I can say is, I would definitely recommend this series if you're in need of a pizza and you don't have hight standards at that moment. [image]...more

**overall series review**
So, I started this series hoping to find something really cool that could get me out of this annoying book funk I'm having.
No luck.
Anyway, the series, yes. It's a pretty nice, fast-paced space opera. It's your typical story: girl meets boy, love stuff, drama, boom, blood, slavery, good-guys-win, and happily ever after. The world-builder is decent, the writing style is good, and the characters are good enough. It's the kind of series I'd read if I were where this lady is: [image]
Is this a life-altering, world-changing book? Nope, but I wasn't looking for one. It's a break in the day, a slice of yummy pizza, and yes, kinda forgettable. But it's worth a try if you're looking for a short, fast-paced, SF Opera series....more
I really appreciate it when the main characters have really cool friends. You know what I mean, right? Those side characters that are way too importanI really appreciate it when the main characters have really cool friends. You know what I mean, right? Those side characters that are way too important to be called side characters? Those people who are there to more than help the MC, but to make her grow, to make her a better person, and, overall, to kick some ass and take some names!
Oh, yes! Give me more of these so-called side characters! ...more

Another fun episode in Kat's life. The great part: we're getting a bit back on track with the main action and the big bad guys, the Conclave.
And it was so nice to see Candace again, I always miss her and want to see more of her!...more
Just like with almost every series from this author, the ending is too abrupt. The last fight is rushed, the 'other world' should have **Sigh** [image]
Just like with almost every series from this author, the ending is too abrupt. The last fight is rushed, the 'other world' should have been a bit more developed, and the characters don't get an ending they deserve (yes, I know there's a short story after this one, but still not an excuse).
So, yup, a disappointing end to the series...
Even so, it's definitely worth reading. Even with this, I'd recommend it to anyone. It's relaxing, fun, fast-paced. It's like pizza! Makes you feel better, although there's no real substance to it. [image]...more
Happy because I got to see how they lived happily ever after.
Sad because, well, I really enjoyed this series a4.5 I'm so happy sad this ended ! [image]
Happy because I got to see how they lived happily ever after.
Sad because, well, I really enjoyed this series and now it's finished, this was the last book. [image]
So, yup, definitely happy sad here.
Anyway, this was a great ending to an awesome series. Each book got better and better, the characters were exceptional, the writing was amazing, oh, why does it have to end!
If you're looking for a really fun, interesting, fast-paced series but with some depth as well, some character growth, and a pretty decent world builder, this is a series you should definitely try! [image]...more
Still nice, still cute, still a bit predictable, but it's to be expected (hihi, get it?).

If you've read the series so far, definitely worth continuing. Not as fast paced, maybe, but I like the different perspectives and the new characters and relationships we see.
So, have fun, enjoy, and go on reading! [image]...more
It's nice though, we have Rita's daughter coming and, as to be expected, soOhh, a little plot twist! [image]
It does end in a cliffhanger, so be warned.
It's nice though, we have Rita's daughter coming and, as to be expected, some things happen. Can't say I was surprised, but it was still really nice and cute.
This series is the definition of chick lit [image]...more
Like usual from this author, this series is fun and fast-paced. The characters are good written, the action is interesting 3.5 Fun, cute series! [image]
Like usual from this author, this series is fun and fast-paced. The characters are good written, the action is interesting and fast-paced, and the world builder is pretty good.
If you know this writer well, though, you will start seeing a pattern in her writing. Not sure if that's a bad thing necessarily. On one hand, if you know and like her writing, you know you'll like her series, no matter what. On the other hand, though, if you read her series too close to each other, you might be a bit annoyed.
Anyway, back to this book.
It's a good one, and definitely worth trying (especially if you know about this character from her other series; Cora is fun and interesting). Cliffhanger ending (and a pretty big one), so make sure you have the next book on hand....more

Really, people, let's give this chick a chance, she deserves it. [image]
Back to the book though: Yup, a pretty good last book, end of the series, all that. It didn't lag, the questions were answered, and I had a lot of fun reading this.
So, go put this series on your TBR pile. It's definitely at least worth a try. [image]...more

I really enjoyed it all, definitely worth a try. Well written and engaging, fun characters and a lot of chemistry.
Maybe not the best UF ever, but it's that pizza-type of read. Perfect for the weekend, summer, Christmas holiday, or just after an annoying day at work (I'm at that point right now, so yeah, definitely useful)....more
