While first person is not my favourite view for reading, I do like the ending for this series. I do miss Cimerone, Mendabar, and Kazul but I like that we went to the next generation as well. Just as good as I remember at least and it was good to visit an old book series after a long time of not reading them.

Another fun, lighthearted book in the Enchanted Forest Chronicles series. Filled with adventure, magic, dragons, and self-discovery. There is also Wrede's trademark moments of female empowerment. And this book even has a nod towards the power of good manners.

Fast-paced and entertaining.

Fun read, not my favorite of the series but a nice wrap up.

3.5 stars. A quick read that kept the pages turning. The theme of politeness running throughout was humorous, and the careful manner in which information was revealed added tension and interest. The climax was excellent.

Not a bad conclusion to a book series finally finished after a long time away. This books takes place approx. 16 years after book 3, so the jump is a little disconcerting, but worked well over all.
Perspective switched on this one from feisty Cimorene, to her son Daystar. But Daystar is slightly confused, having no idea what he had gotten himself into. On one hand, this lends the new charm from the first book, but is also somewhat annoying at times. Overall a little rushed, and not as well detailed and explained as the others. But a pretty good conclusion over all.
