Thrilling Story, Ending Felt Rushed

While this was an excellent novel and I'd 10/10 recommend reading the whole series to anyone who enjoys fantasy, the pacing of the plot felt a bit rushed towards the end.

Around the 2 hours to the end mark it was clear where things were going for their conclusion, and the ending did end up tying everything together in a wonderful twist. But the end felt abrupt given this was the end to a trilogy with a large amount of backstory and multiple plot threads. There was nothing like an epilogue and the final duel, as it were, felt less developed than the conflict in the opening chapter of the book. Still finish the series if you've read the first two novels!

John Lee was excellent, but with a slightly more limited variety of voices than other narrators that makes it difficult to differentiate minor characters.

Highly enjoyable end to series

I found this final book in the series highly enjoyable. Not quite the ending I expected in how it all occurred. No spoilers from me hopefully.

Little Disappointed

Overall since I love the world Duncan had built for this series and his accompanying series, this felt extremely rushed, would of loved for there to be a 4th. the series was good, but a very rushed ending.

Great, but should have been book 3 in a 4 book series

Great narration and writing as usual, but I agree with the other reviewers that the ending felt very rushed and wasn’t given an appropriate amount of time. There should have been a 4th book dedicated to the ‘final battle’ instead of what we got. Only other complaint is that while it was nice to have the protagonists from the other trilogies mentioned/shown. There was little impact. A 4th book would have allowed for more interaction between all of the protagonists that would have been interesting to read. All said, I’m still very much looking forward to future novels taking place in this world.

alot of missed opportunities. should've been 4 books in all

This 3 book series clearly should've been 4. The Arthur made such a big deal about the big boss demon and his potential to create an army but we never got to see his army battle or the big boss actually be used. what's worse the Arthur brings back important characters from another earlier series and mentions another important character from another earlier series( chapter 40) yet we don't get to see them in action or interact with one another smh! This book should've focused on the war itself half way thru with Conrad, wolfric, and seren interacting and fighting in the war against the demon army with book 4 being the Conclusion.

P.S what the Arthur chose to do with the big boss demon was truly terrible it would be like switching Darth Vader as the big bad for Lando at the last minute smh!
