Penultimate book to an amazing series.
Well I am an avid Harry potter fan. I have read all the books too many times to count and have them on audiobook too. This is the second to last book in the series and is when this start getting more and more action filled as Voldemort is growing in power and Harry is starting to discover the horcruxes that he needs to distribute with the help do dumbledore and his friends.

The Lord of the Rings was my favorite book series growing up. I compare all of the books that I read to Lord of the Rings. J.R.R. Tolkien spent so much time and effort on these books, that is it is easy to see just how incredible they are. The Return of the King does a fantastic job of wrapping up the series and giving us the epic conclusion that we are looking for. Fantastic book!

<2024 update>

It's been a few years since I last read this, with the added time between now adding (to me) additional depth to the character of The Moidart and to Gaise Macon's often fractured relationship with him.

<original review>

The final book in the Rigante series and, while it may not be as good as the others, it still nicely round off the series. The blurb on the back of the book is a bit misleading, though ...

Fairy Tale indeed!
I absolutely fell in love with this series! Adventure, magic, a love story featuring a beast of a man, an evil villian who you would love to see fail, and an ending that leaves you gasping and grabbing the next book! My all time favorite series and such an amazing author!
  
The first three books in the series introduce many of the main characters and give us three great mysteries, too. I still love this series, so I highly recommend you see where it all began.

What a great read, not a dull moment. Plenty of action and more than enough suspense to keep you reading. I believe this is book 3 in the Associates Series but this is the first one i've read and is easily readable as a stand alone. I will be reading the rest of the series.

I think the pace of the series picked up immensely in this book. The last three books were ok but seemed to me to be more like 'fillers'- perhaps in order to make more money or something. Who knows? Either way the series ends well and the loose ends were tied up rather well.

The first book of the My Hero Academia series. It was fine. It seemed to take awhile to get to the main action, but I suspect that the series will pick up now that the background has been laid out. The story of how Izuku got accepted into hero school was told in great detail.

Story line is really interesting (0 more)
The book cuts off on a real cliff hanger (1 more)
The sex scenes are super cringe!
This is the first of a series and I did really enjoy the plot and characters, the sex is a bit cringey but aside from that I am happy to continue with the series!
