But when I had thought about it for a while I realized that there really was no other way to end the story. Remember people: most traditional fairy tales are not happy endings. They are cautionary tales about dealing with the supernatural. Disney has written happy endings not in the original stories. Did I want a Disney ending? Absolutely! Did I enjoy the book anyway? Loved it!! I just could not get into this book – never really felt like picking it up. Although I really liked the first book of the trilogy, I felt like the characters in this book weren't even the same people – or anyone at all, really. There was a completely different ‘feel' to the writing – and the ‘poetry' just took over. If one is interested in reading over 600 pages of overly flowery and often redundant descriptive phrases, while lovely cardboard characters sigh and languish and wander around on quests that don't seem to go anywhere.... well, then please do check this book out. I found it to be particularly disappointing, because I thought that the first book of the trilogy showed remarkable promise. However, as the story went on all the original and interesting aspects were gradually eliminated, and all the flaws multiplied and took over. It's too bad – but I can't say I'll seek out any more of this author's books. Continua la saga di Imrhien/Rohain/Taquil/Ashalind e nonostante si sia al terzo volume riesce a mantenere le aspettative dei precedenti libri. La storia non scade in banalità, non risulta appensantita rispetto ciò che l'ha preceduta. Continua ad appassionare, a far battere il cuore per un personaggio che non si può fare a meno di sentire vicino. ------------>-------------- Ma... Ma c'è un ma. La fine - se possiamo definirla così! - risulta decisamente troppo poco definita, nebulosa potremmo dire. La Dart-Thornton si è comportata bene fino alle ultime 25 pagine, descrivendo con minuzia di particolari, senza mai annoiare. Ma poi non si capisce bene perchè ha concluso le vicissitudini di Ashalind e Thorn in due righe appena abbozzate. Decisamente rimane un certo senso di delusione. Un senso di aspettativa tradito. ------------>-------------- Nonostante questo rimane una delle saghe che ho maggiormente amato fino ad ora. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Up until then it was all getting quite predictable and I was finding myself skim-reading page after page as not much was happening.
Some interesting ideas and loose ends and characters from earlier in the series all resolved.
In the end, just much too long-winded.
Normally it's a little bittersweet saying goodbye to much-loved characters at the end of a long series that you didn't want to end.
For this book, I was skipping paragraphs and pages because I just wanted it to end. Rarely do I find that. ( )
