Oh my god!! If you have not picked this up and you like fantasy novels, do it right now. Stop what you are doing and read this book!!! It is full of badassery, not too much romantic stuff, and magic. In the battle to find out which person will be crowned the King's Champion, lots of mystery and intrigue happens to our main heroine, Celaena Sandorthien. What is even cooler about this, there are pronunciation guides in the back of the book (at least in the paperback edition). I can't wait to start on the next one!!

It's so funny (2 more)
It uses humour to make light of such an awful situation
It shows the importance of relationships when in such a dangerous situation.
It's only 3 series :( (1 more)
The ending has been left open ended, WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?!!
A funny take on a serious matter
I like this because it is based on something that people actually do. Even though they make light of the situation they find themselves in, it really helps you understand what people in the Army go through, the danger they are in every day, the sheer bravery and the emotional impact it has on them.

Two arcs finish the line, the first reveals what happens to Spock prime in the Kelvin time line as he struggles against a threat to the remaining Vulcan population. Exceedingly well done, Mike Johnson captures the voice of Leonard Nimoys Spock perfectly.

The last two stories are a crossover of sorts between the time line crews, and while its mostly fan service, its good fun fan service. Great stuff, I hope the next version of Trek is as consistent and solid.

This season is slow going, it started in the middle of season four where it looked like they were running out of ideas and they needed to stretch the storyline, I am now about half way through and I know feel that I want to carry on watching instead of thinking I need to just get past this episode to see what happens next. Episode 8 is brilliant so many references to 80's shows, let's see how the series pans out.
  
Omg...the ending aaaa the ending...I can't wait to read the next one...I almost threw my kindle against the wall at the ending. The beginning was slow but then it picked up and it caught me and I was hooked. Some of the words are different for me...but I understood them fine. I am excited to see what happens. The plots and twists were amazing and unexpected. I was thinking one way and it went opposite. Lol loved it

In this sixth book in the series the characters and their relationships continue to evolve. Some for good others not so much. The quest for a safe place and survival comes full circle just as all seems lost. Colt and Dani run into another man just trying to survive and keep his family alive. He is familiar to Colt. The pilot from the plane. This is where books 1-3 and 4-6 merge. Looking forward to see what happens next.

I was really liking it up until those last few pages which made me want to throw my kindle across the room and scream in anger and frustration. I figured something dodgy was going on with Brooke and the oldest Royal but not HIM. Nooooo. You evil biatch!! You've kinda gone and broken my heart, too, now Reed.

But i really need to know what happens next with this messed up family so off i go to hunt out book 2.

I'm still so intrigued by this series. The will they/won't they of Heller and Tilly. It's obvious they both want to, and I'm quite literally begging them to!, but they're resisting--well Tilly's resisting--and it's driving me mad!

I felt like we missed out on more bonding time with Tilly, Niq and Daniel. They make such a cute trio with their teasing and general messing around. But once again i am straight off to buy book 3 in the series to see what happens next.

The story makes you keep reading to see what's going to happen next. (0 more)
The ending...the story suddenly stops. Definitely needs a sequel. (0 more)
Contains spoilers, click to show
The books is really good and it is nice to get both the mother and the daughters perspective things. You get an insight into why the daughter does the things she does.
The ending is not good...the book suddenly ends and you are wanting to see what happens next. It also is left open for a sequel. As the book was only published last year there is definitely time for a squeal. Would of preferred to read it if I could read the sequel straight away (if there will ever be one).
