Only thing I didn't like was the big, fat, cheat of a cliffhanger. Thank goodness the series is complete or I'd be really irritated. You all know how I hate cliffhangers--rely on your story to bring the reader back, please! ( )

Love the characters in this series. Great writing. Exciting storyline. ( )

I think the world building is solid, and appreciated the growth in her relationship with her father. There may be some interesting family commentary to be made if the author continues in this vein. I'm waiting to find out about her mother, I find it odd that she hasn't showed up yet, and given the differences in how magic works for Allie, I am betting that there is something from her mom's side of the genetic pool that causes that.

Monk started dropping fairy tale references late in the book. With Zay in a coma, we are starting to channel Sleeping Beauty hard core. At the end of this novel, Allie is jumping into the world of death to save Zayvion from where he is being kept prisoner. I love gender reversal in fairy tale motifs. It will be exciting to see where this goes.
