A great finish to the "Heir" Trilogy. I had a few issues with some of the characters in the story.

SPOILERS***

Linda and Leander's brief stint in this book was annoying. Why couldn't they come back and help in the battle? Bring a few weapons from the castle's stash? Could they buy a cell phone and call to check in? The Trinity Weir people were in desperate need all the while Linda and Leander hang out in a castle and have basically no part in this book.

I was confused about the dragon/lady. Was she a dragon or a lady? Both? This was confusing to me. When Madison became the dragon did she give up art school? Maybe they don't allow dragons at art school.

Sad about Jason, but hopefully Leesha will have a long time to feel guilty about that.

Warren Barber got off too easy in my opinion. I guess falling off a cliff is a violent end, but I would have preferred death by dragon fire or dragon teeth.

I loved how Jessamine and Wylie lost their Weirstones. What a perfect end for them!

Jason's sacrifice was heroic but sad.

And what about Nicodemus? How could he love someone and betray her so fully? And sorry, but if I was the dragon and came face to face with my betrayer, I would have a few more words to say.

Ryan the middle 200 hundred pages were just about madison moss and her problems it could have been about jack kicking but or seph kicking but


Krista JASON!! NO! He should not have died! :(


 Marla Warren Barber should've been turned into an Anaweir and then hit by a semi and become conscious vegetable for the rest of his days, rotting and forgotten and harmless.

*********** SPOILERS ************

Annoyed with Hastings and Linda that they took off and were never part of the finale. Was pleased that they had to let Becca in on it and she stepped up beautifully.

Glad Jason took out D'Orsey, but I was really hoping the Dragon could revive him. Thank goodness, Ellen survives.

I was surprised the Dragon didn't eat Nick.

I was hoping that Madison could still go to art school and Seph could go to Northwestern.


Mira I was confused by this Lady Dragon thing. What exactly was Aidan Ladhra? I felt like I needed more on that.


Elais no dude Jason got but fucked it's the girls fault she touched the stone and put her hex shit in it if she didn't jason just would have not died and went super wizard like and she didn't even apologize for it after he died and they all gave him a grave that said dragon heart messed up 100% Jason didn't deserve to get screwed that hard I mean death sabotage and he was only ever trying to do the right thing.
