It ends
This is the final book in the Hunger Games trilogy and I absolutely enjoyed it. It had a few turning points for Katniss and company as well as a thrilling conclusion to the drama. But, the ending could have had more going for it. Don't get me wrong, I was all for who she ends up with, but I felt it could have done more with it.

Brilliant Political Thrillar
This book should be one of the greats, it is very addictive once you get into it. I read the trilogy in about a week. Lisbeth Salander is a character that you fall in love with and empathise a great deal with. Her trials through out the book are heart breaking and you feel free once she has over come them. Even when she get revenge, although it is pretty gruesome.

The first of the trilogy where we see Nero (Keanu Reeves) start his fight through the Matrix with his mind linked to a computer which shows up a load of lines on green background which are all a special code. Keanu as Nero also has to decide which pill to take red or blue. Some excellent martial art moves are shown in these moves as well as some high tech scenes.

The Dominion trilogy concludes with our heroes trying to find any way they can to stop Oblivion from unleashing his end game. While some elements made me roll my eyes, for the most part I was pulled into this fantasy story from page one. This one also finally includes some Christian themes.

This Middle Grade trilogy comes to an end as modern day teen Greg Rich must figure out a way to save seventeenth century France and find the stone that will take his family home. Fasted paced action made it hard to put down, and I loved every second of the race to the end.

Ties the story up nicely. (1 more)
Another film in the series that got better than the one before.
It should have ended on this one. (0 more)
World's end - The end.
See this is actually my favourite of the three main films. With any film trilogy it needs to get bigger and better than the one before which this definitely does. It ends with all loose ends tied up nicely, should have left it there really.

A unique and brilliant addition to the Zombie/Apocalypse genre
This is the first book in the Decaying Days trilogy. It introduces you to compelling and relatable characters facing the unthinkable. An outbreak that is destroying humanity but a serum was supposed to fix everything, but did it? Humans are showing mutations in their fight to survive the afflicted.
