Perfection of a series, a perfect ending, I love these books so much, and highly recommend reading them if you want to get into French.

I enjoyed the book and liked the conclusion, but I wish it had addressed the plot holes mentioned previously throughout the series. Like for instance why is the nightshade (?) island taboo? What are the powers of the four fallen talismans? Etc. all in all it wasn’t bad, and still an enjoyable read.

Well, it's not what I wanted, but it was good. If I'm being honest, I'm disappointed. I still liked it, but there was potential for so much more. There just wasn't time to do it, I guess. Or my vision was just vastly different than that of the author.

It was pretty silly at times but entertaining nonetheless.

• Lack of animal knowledge. Leopards can't purr.

• On page 161-162, it states Jhi made a pandalike cry and that's probably the funniest thing I have ever read. That's like saying the dog barked a doglike bark and I love it.

The part with the seagull was ridiculous. You already know for a fact that one of the Conquerers has a seagull that had followed and attacked you before, but THIS time, this time it must certainly be a coincidence for sure. It only acts exactly like the other one for no reason.

I enjoyed the end battle. It was well-thought out and beautiful.

I imagine them deciding to let Shane go will come back for plot reasons though, which is a little disappointing because of how predictable that is. Or maybe it won't and I'll be wrong. I'm excited to find out either way!
