I guess it's my fault that I expected some GREAT ending to this series. But honestly, how could the author possibly live up to the hype and expectation of ALL us readers after 4 previous books? I'll tell you how, by answering the big questions and having the main characters grow and evolve and not regress. Unfortunately, that's not what happened here. It's almost impossible to write a review for this book without including spoilers...because to show why I feel the way I do about this book, I would have to include spoilers to do it!!!
Here goes. For the last four books, we've watched Mac 1.0 evolve into Mac 5.0. However, there were several instances in this book where her decision making was Mac 1.0 all the way. I mean, why would you think something heavily warded and chained would not be dangerous!!! Also, after being willing to remake the world and "sleep with the enemy" for Barrons, how quickly she went back to playing that Mac 1.0 game...."I love you but I'm scared to tell you or show you!!!" For four books, we've watched Mac try to take on the Lord Master and then here...WHAM!!
NOTHING!!!! Can you say "ANTICLIMACTIC" !!!
There were a few things I liked about this book. I liked the idea that not everything or EVERYONE were who they appeared to be. I liked that Barrons and Mac sort-of, kinda, finally expressed how they felt for each other. But the bad outweighs the good. So much of the previous books seemed irrelevant based on this final book. And just like always, some questions were left unanswered. What's to become of Christian, Dani, Ryoden, and the others? And who is Dancer??? Well I'm done! If answers to these question are in other upcoming books, I'll just have to get them from some other readers spoilers. I've given all the time I am going to give to this series. I feel like the sheep Dani accused the sidhe-seer of being. LOL.
