A really fun finale to the series! Absolutely over the top, and quite enjoyable. It's hard to share what I liked without spoiling it, though... Lots of fun twists and turns, as is usual with these books. If you liked Howl's Moving Castle, you'll probably enjoy this series too.

Marianne and Cat were my favorites. And I really enjoyed having so many creatures in the story. It reminded me of Dark Lord of Derkholm (I'll re read it soon).
And now that I'm done with the series (a shame because i would love to know more about Marianne, Cat and the rest) I can say that my top 3 are:
Conrad's Fate
The Pinnhoe Egg
The Lives of Christopher Chant

Wow! Will the wonders of Diana Wynne Jones never cease? Excellent book, another classic for the Chrestomanci series. The writing was amazing, and the characters memorable, as always.
