 I had trouble getting into the last book of the Witch & Wizard series. I was kind of ready to be done with this series when I started reading this book. The main characters had kind of lost their luster for me, especially Wisty because she was immature at times and not self aware. I think she grew as a character by the end of the novel, but it took too long for my taste. It was interesting to see Whit and Wisty's relationship and the struggles they went through as a family caused by the circumstances they were in. I think it really showed that things like war and conflict can separate family because of differences in point of view, but that love is still what precedes any separation caused by conflict. I was happy with this book by the end, but I would give the Witch & Wizard series as a whole 3 stars out of 5 because I think it could have ended two or three books earlier. In a way, it may have overstayed its welcome as a series.
