Amazing January 5, 2009 Yael Gau Nora Roberts ended the trilogy wonderfully. I was always on the edge of my seat! I couldn't put it down!
Needs a Sequel January 5, 2009 R. CHANDLER (WV, USA) Loved the trilogy but was disappointed in this ending. What happens next. I feel Nora has left this one open for another book or trilogy. Smart Nora.
How did they do all that esoteric research on laptops? January 1, 2009 D. E Anne mc Kenna (Saskatoon, SK Canada) This was a very bad book. I have read all the one and two starred reviews and agreed wholeheartedly with them. But what really made me put down the book in disgust was when I noticed there were no distinct characters. Of course, they had separate names, but it was one person talking to him/herself ad nauseum.
So-So... December 31, 2008 B. Aland I love Nora Roberts and think she's an extremely entertaining and gifted writer. She frequently makes me laugh, cry, and get scared, all in the same book. I guess everyone has to have a dud every now and again. I wanted to throttle these characters if they researched any more. It's like she was looking for some way to stretch it out. I wish the climactic battle had had more meat to it, but I guess it's hard to stretch those out too much. And Nora, you are way too talented to resort to silly cliches and disturbing "rape" stories. Didn't like it in Blue Smoke, don't like it here. I think I'll go back and read the Key Trilogy again!
The Pagan Stone December 30, 2008 Kelly (Littleton, Colorado) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I really enjoyed the entire trilogy, and while I wholeheartedly admit book one of this series was my favorite, I was looking forward to Gage's story! I wanted to know what the rebel did after he left, and what happened to him. He had such a horrible childhood, and I was hoping he would make peace or at least come to terms with it. I knew that there had to be a confrontation between he and his father as it has been building since the first book. I knew it was coming, and don't know that the outcome could have been handled any differently. A constant that was really appreciated is the friendship between Cal, Fox, and Gage because it is so endearing. They are brothers by choice, and never hid the deep feelings they have for one another. The addition of Layla, Cybil, and Quinn complemented them individually as well as a team. There has been a tremendous buildup to this climaxing end of the trilogy with many creepy moments, and this installment did not disappoint. A few times I felt it bordered on a little too graphic, but it ended up adding to the conclusion. I have seen many reviewers state that this book was a departure from anything believable or logical, but that is precisely what I expect from a work of fiction. I also saw many criticisms that it is not a romance, and that is what NR is expected to write. I do not like every book she has written, but that is not the fault of the author. It is just subject matter I am not interested in. This trilogy was never depicted to be a great romance, but rather a delve into the paranormal with demon elements, and I thought that was done very well. While reviews are always subjective, I don't think it is fair to give a negative review because the author didn't deliver a romance.
