What an ending to a great fantasy series!  Be ready to let out a sob or two 'cos not all of your secondary character favourites are going to make it to the end!

Gwen and Mordred have kept us hopping over these 4 books.  They are at odds as often as they are working together.  They love and hate each other in just about equal measure.  Mordred is just about ready to blow up his world - talk about morally dark!  Gwen just wants everyone to get out alive - neither are going to get what they want.

Mordred really was put in an untenable position and tried to do what he thought Arthur would want and then when that reveal comes alone - blam his whole reason for being in the state he is, well it's kind of whipped from under him!

There is more than enough action and I loved that the human inhabitants of Avalon and Camelot are finally getting involved - as outmatched as they are they are saying ENOUGH!  There is spice and smexy thoughts and some hates&x at times.  

At times I wanted to cry and hold Mordred's hand and others times I wanted to smack him on the head.  Gwen was still quite naïve in her dealings with there duplicitous Fae - I had hopes she would have grown a few more callouses on her soft heart but then she wouldn't be Gwen I suppose.

My favourite secondary characters remain Eod, Mae and Tim - I really loved the rickey buckets of bolts that made up Gwen's army!
