The final book in this series is pretty disappointing.
The premise of the chess board could have been really cool but the author failed to pull it off.

I was a fan of the chess game. It kept me guessing the whole time how the next challenge would end up. Totally predictable ending though. Even though I knew how it was going to end I still enjoyed it.

The end to another fantastic fantasy novel.
This entire series needs to be made into a TV show. This is basically the Amazing Race but Fae style. There is a mystery with the Brotherhood, Jacq's missing sister, a Prince that is presumed dead.
The Chess game in this final installment was a wild ride. And my ultimate dream for this novel was for Orin to see his family again, after 18 years. By the end of the book I was a puddle.
I don't want to say too much a spoil the novel, but it is a very entertaining ride. Claire makes it so that reading her books are so effortless. You get scooped up into the world she creates and this with her co-author J A Armitage; is a cast of characters that you are rooting for, that you love to hate and others you hope that karma gets them.
A very pleasant and happy conclusion to this novel. I would definitely be interested in more stories in this fae world.

I didn’t want it to end!
What a wonderful conclusion to a wonderful series. (At least I’m kinda pretty sure it’s the last book.) I’m glad they were able to keep the pace through all 3 books to the very end!

I cannot believe that I read 690 pages (total of the entire series) in a week. This series was fantastic.

This book was just exciting and thrilling and a lot more. I love Jacq and Orin and love that we got to see the familys. This one has to be the best of the series.

The Doomsday Trial is the the third and final trial in the Faerie Races! This series was action packed and thrilling! It was such a fun read, and I loved how it turned out!

I love this series...
A kick but heroine, a sexy dark fairy male, mystery, intrigue, and even murder, what else could you ask for in a book. I read a great deal and often figure clues and such out before, but I was pleasantly surprised many times in this series. If you like action, love, and fairies then check these books out.

And now the story is over!!
What an epic adventure. Loved the twists and turns of the final trial. This all comes together with a Big Bang. What an ending!
Really good world building and very clever characterisation.
Writing was very easy to read. This is a must read series.
