Great conclusion September 27, 2008
Emily Rodda ends the final installment of the Deltora Quest stories just as it should end, with all the adventure and intrigue and twists we have come to expect. It's a satisfying and powerful ending in every way.
Better than the rest August 4, 2008
This book is the finale of the series, and what a finale! When you get to the end of a series, there is usually a bit of disappointment, but not here. There are more twists than is believable, and a satisfying ending. Someone complained that there is no romance between Lief and Jasmine, but that isn't true at all, you just have to read between the lines. Read the last few pages carefully, and you'll see that there is.
It's a good thing the payoff is so large, because books 2 through 7 had the problem that they were all a bit too similar. And the first book had very few surprises at all, and was pretty typical for a fantasy novel.
All in all, an excellent conclusion that isn't as good as Harry Potter, but is still way better than most books in its genre.
The end. May 3, 2008

Very Cool Story! July 7, 2006
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
My name is Andrew. I am 7 years old. (My daddy helped me write this.) I liked when the seven ak-baba swooped down from the tower. And then it was cool when Lief put on the belt and destroyed the Ols and drew away the ak-baba.
You should read this book because it is very interesting and you'll read about a lot of monsters and magic.
