About this listen

Maeve Sparrow is going to change the world.

Or at least, that's what everyone tells her. That's what ancient fae prophecies say, also. Immortals look to her for hope and as an instigator of change.

Is she up to the task? Can she change the way mortals and immortals treat each other? Can she help society rebuild now that governments have crumbled and war has broken out on the streets of New York and other cities around the world?

All she can do is try.

With the fate of the world in balance, Maeve has to use her wits, courage, and determination as much as she does her magic and supernatural abilities if she's going to fulfill the expectations placed on her young shoulders.

And we finally get to the end.....

I am not sure, but I think that this book was much longer than the other books - at least it FELT longer. And yes, there was a lot that had to happen if things were going to be wrapped up, so that part was understandable.

The issues that I had with this book in particular was the pacing. It starts off with a bang as the gang heads to the US to try to handle the situation in New York. That part of the book sped by.
Then, there is an event that leads to Maeve's separation from her group.

Before I even discuss that, I just remembered something. Not only was there a VERY long summary of the previous book (which she had done in each of the previous books and I think would have been extremely helpful if there had been a long time between books), but in this book, there is a VERY long Prologue that in the end, really has nothing to do with anything. Seriously, if you skipped the entire Prologue, you would not even realize hat you missed anything- it was that insignificant, yet it was VERY wordy and very, well, just odd.

Okay - back to the story. The middle part of this just dragged. The story honestly felt like it came to a complete halt and that was just frustrating. Yes, there eventually is a reason but it really broke up the continuity.

We then have another couple of the, "REALLY, you're going to do that HERE?" moments and then a REALLY (and I mean REALLY) weird mating scene - and that is saying something -- though honestly after 4 books, somehow I've gotten to the point that I just skim....

But after all of that, it felt like once we had that weird reunion, that it was a sprint to the finish. In a way, after all the build up to where everything was leading, well, I almost felt cheated with the ending. Yes, we were given a couple of Epilogue's and for that I am very grateful for that but I would have liked more. With ALL the time spent just walking in the desert, I would have rather had those pages give us more details of things that were discussed in the Epilogues. That's just me though.

All in all it was a fun and interesting storyline - even if some of it was hidden in between some really inappropriate smexy times (I actually have NO issue with the smexy times, it was the time, locations and situations that they sometimes occurred in that had me shaking my head.)

So....it's a wrap.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
