One of the best in the series so far This episode is one of the best yet， much more action and focus on the endgame。 There’s still a bit of the petty pitter patter between the protagonist and his love interest， but I guess that’s to be expected in a YA fantasy series。 Still a good read though。

Peter Wacht has constructed a captivating story that echoes familiar themes of a young determined boy， Thomas， who must save everyone from an encroaching evil that will take over except for the prophesy that talks of a final battle between light and dark。 I adore his character， his eyes， and his determination。 The prophecy does not predict the outcome of the fight， so I guess anything could happen， but after 8 books， it would seem that the only satisfying outcome would be that dark is vanquished Peter Wacht has constructed a captivating story that echoes familiar themes of a young determined boy， Thomas， who must save everyone from an encroaching evil that will take over except for the prophesy that talks of a final battle between light and dark。 I adore his character， his eyes， and his determination。 The prophecy does not predict the outcome of the fight， so I guess anything could happen， but after 8 books， it would seem that the only satisfying outcome would be that dark is vanquished in some way or another。 It is not the conclusion that keeps us reading， it is the journey toward the conclusion。This installment， as with other installments， repeats the themes of battles between the terrifying dark creatures and the forces that Thomas has organized and has been leading。 The battles are now fought with the foregone conclusion that they will be won so they are not providing the action that was so very good in the first few installments。 We don't see or feel their fear， their brushes with death， their injuries， their losses。 The repetitiveness of explaining the backstory， takes away from the intrigue of the story。 While I understand with each book， some backstory is necessary， the author takes away from the story by rehashing things over and over。 （Perhaps a prologue reviewing the history in the beginning of the book would be sufficient to help a new reader catch up， eliminating the necessity to add explanations throughout the book that are repetitive to the readers who have read from the first。） Thomas's power continues to progress along with his relationship with Kalie--his love interest。 The reader wonders whether she will be used against him as leverage。 The evil forces do not seem to learn from experience the strategies that the boy has employed many times and so the evil forces continue to be dominated by his battle methods。 The evil forces are very flat characters without imagination or strategic creativity。 They simply believe they are too powerful to be vanquished。 This feature does not add to the story or add any intrigue。While this saga is written for teens， the lack of character development， repetitive passages， and predictable actions lead to a mediocre story in this installment。 By keeping Thomas's growing power secretive， and then have other characters to simply say they are continued to be "surprised" by his power when he uses it， is lack luster。 It just seems "matter of fact。" Where is the emotion， the "edge of your seat" action， the intrigue， such as when Thomas threw himself off the tower？ I am hoping that the conclusion is exciting， unpredictable， and includes emotional passages that leads to a wonderful conclusion。 。。。more
