I hate writing bios, even though I love to write. If you're that interested, read my blog, where I natter on at length on writing, publishing, research, and life in general.

This is an amazing finish to the trilogy. This series has already become one that I will slide back onto my reading list periodically. I heartily recommend it.

Author’s Leftist Ideology Signaled In The Clear

Mrs. Cedar Sanderson author of “Dragon Noir (Pixie for Hire Book 3), signals her Marxist, Jacobin, and unAmerican ideology in the clear multiple times in Book 3. Given her intellect, research abilities, and writing skill set, a reader cannot but come to the conclusion it is all intentional. The words the author chooses are directly from The French Revolution and Marxism. Examples are Highlighted and/or Noted.

Know what you see.

just wow!

I do love the way Ms. Sanderson writes. It is an easy read because the words flow so well.

Bella and Lom really went on an adventure this time. The mixture of various legends from various cultures works so well together. That is a testament to Ms. Sanderson’s writing ability.

I cannot wait to read the next installment.

This is a definite must read series!

OK, I loved most of this, seeing the h take her place, the H being so patient and caring but I did not like the ending at all. As a couple they are so brave and caring, they sacrifice so much and paid a terrible price. So while I did love the series, it challenged me quite a lot too. Loved all of the magical elements and characters. Wonderful, just the couple deserved a better HEA.

Good story!

Good final battle, unicorn indeed. Action was interesting, the different planes were a bit confusing. The idea of stashing stuff in another area was good. I'm willing to read more of this author.

A fast and fun conclusion to the trilogy. Here we follow Lom and Bella as they seek out the people who are targeting their friends and family. Along the way we seek out long-lost family members, uncover the reason the library has been harder to reach, and meet new members of their family. And then there's a huge final battle against an immortal foe... and an ending that I really didn't see coming (although after reading it I felt like I should have seen it coming).

A fitting final act, although I'd like to know more about what happens to them after all this...

I thought this was a good ending to the series. But it turned into more epic fantasy at the end, rather than individual (if that makes any sense).

The series was pretty good. Not terrific, but a good read.

My favorite of the series, easily.
