The super, duper amazing finale to this super, duper amazing series!! I'm in LOVEE! Also, Martin! ( ) Timothy and Linden left the Green Isles with more then a stone and a few good men of the Children of Rhys, they left with the means of protecting themselves and their fellow faeries against the all conquering Empress. Returned home to the Oak the real work is now to begin. At any time the Empress would descend on the Oak she has vowed to destroy with her many hundreds of follower, willing or otherwise. But would the faeries of the Oak be ready? When the Stone of Naming was taken from the Green Isles, the Children of Rhys were left confused, frightened and desperate to have their most precious possession returned to them. But as faeries of peace, the Children of Rhys have little chance of surviving on the mainland against the Empress and her faeries to take back the stone from the rebels, unless they are willing to break their most sacred law. As a Child of Rhys and daughter of one of the most esteemed elders, Rosemary is shocked to discover her mother plans to invade the mainland and break this sacred law. With little choice to save her people, Rosemary leaves home in an effort to reclaim the sacred stone and restore peace to her homeland. However the mainland is nothing like the sheltered home she left behind and Rosemary soon finds out how tricky faeries can really be. Arrow sees a new heroine take the spotlight in this charming yet dangerous series. Rosemary is a faery who is learning about life the hard way, but she is not the only one. As her innocence and naivety are turned against her, Rosemary is able to find inner strength in her beliefs. Even after being betrayed, humbled, dominated, kissed, forgiven and exiled she is still strong, smart and brave in the face of all. A delightful and endearing continuation of a wonderfully enchanting series. This is the third instalment in the series, and picks up with a new character - a dark skinned island faery, one of the children of Rhys. It is an enjoyable, quick read with engaging characters and a well paced plot but ultimately leaves no lasting impression. It was an easy read with a few darker moments and a few unexpected occurances to keep the reader on their toes. I would recommend starting with "Knife" however. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!That's what I think of this book!Oh my goodness, at the end I seriously did the whole hugging the book to my chest and jumping up and down and squealing thing again. It was just so amazing. I've read so many awesome books lately and written so many gleeful reviews that it probably comes across as though I love everything, but seriously you should go read how infrequently scathing I can be about books I don't like. (Although that really is infrequent because I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings; I know if I saw a scathing review of something I'd written I'd probably, like, cry. And plus, everyone has different tastes, etc etc.)Anyway, where was I? Right, THIS BOOK WHICH ROCKS. In fact this whole series rocks and I can't wait for [b:Swift|10153924|Swift (Faery Rebels, #4)|R.J. Anderson|http://www.goodreads.com/images/nocover-60x80.jpg|15052323] to be released!I really liked Rhosmari, perhaps not as much as Linden but she was still damn awesome, and the book was so lovely and adventure-filled and full of twists. Like Martin, OMFG. I did NOT see that betrayal coming, man. Not in the slightest! Talk about stunning me almost off my chair.It was frustrating at first to have the action taken so far from the Oak and its people - especially when I too believed that the Oak had been destroyed! But then everything just came together so exquisitely.Sarah and poor little Isadora almost made me cry, too. So glad they were allowed a happy ending. The ending, with Martin stabbing Jasmine and Veronica - hell yes! I loathed him after his betrayal of Rhosmari, but I still was shocked and upset at what Veronica did to Lyn and Toby and their theatre. That was the absolute in cruelty. I was also shocked that despite all that had happened, and despite all she had done, Rhosmari was not welcomed back with open arms by all - but to have her become their ambassador was a great touch. The battle was thrilling, the final stand-off gripping, the whole book just so delightfully magical. Happy, happy sigh :) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!That's what I think of this book!Oh my goodness, at the end I seriously did the whole hugging the book to my chest and jumping up and down and squealing thing again.
