About this listen

The epic conclusion in the mind-blowing supernatural thriller from bestselling author DEREK LANDY, creator of international sensation Skulduggery Pleasant.

Bigger, meaner, stronger, Amber closes in on her murderous parents as they make one last desperate play for power. Her own last hopes of salvation, however, rest beyond vengeance, beyond the abominable killers – living and dead – that she and Milo will have to face.

For Amber’s future lies in her family’s past, in the brother and sister she never knew, and the horrors beyond imagining that befell them.

This made for a good final instalment of the trilogy. Lots of fighting with blood and gore, then travelling, then talking to a bad guy, then repeat. I prefer straight or mm relationships, but this was all right.

Concluded enough

nothing needs to be said about the narration. griffiths did a brilliant job at making the characters come alive and become lovable (even glenn)

I enjoyed it however I felt the pacing felt rushed at point as well as lots of plot and character developments that happened far too late to make me care.

overall, id recommend it if you want similar (but not the same) style as a skullduggery pleasant book but its definitely the weakest book out of the trilogy which is a shame. (i'll probably pick up the next one if more are written)

Not perfect but thats okay!

Never read a Derek Landy books I didn't love and this trilogy is no exception.

He has the ability to write for all ages.

I love listening to the audio books as the characters are brought to life.

Doesn't matter what age you are we can all identify with the themes of coming of age and alienation from your parents, although this is a bit extreme. Never heard of parents who want to eat you!

Join Amber on her Adventures or you will miss out on a delightful novel.

Perfect ending

What a finaly to a wonderful trilogy. I genuinly hope we see these character again in the future as once again Derek has managed to entertain, and enthrall me at the same time with his wonderful writing and amazing imagination. Well we all hope it's imagined...

more. more, more...
