Aside from the insane info-dumps that happen in each book (by now shouldn't we all know what's what?!), I thought this was a very good YA mythology series with a well-done ending. ...more

Bummed as I am that this is the end of the Mythos Academy series, I could not think of a better ending than this. Really, I couldn't. This ended exactly how I like a book series to end. With everything tied up in a neat bow. Getting to that bow didn't come easily though. There was a truly epic battle between the Protectorate and the Reapers and I definitely had a few eye bulging moments when I was reading that part. Everything about this book was just so good.

The aforementioned epic battle, the various romances, the character development, everything. (view spoiler) And I'm glad that Estep left the door open for a spinoff featuring Gwen's cousin, Rory. Because I would definitely read it. I would read just about anything set in the ultra cool and fascinating Mythos Academy universe. Overall, I could not be happier with how this series ended and I eagerly look forward to whatever YA novel that Estep writes next. Other authors take note, this is how you end a series. ...more

This is the sixth and final book in the Mythos Academy series and it is one that I am sad to see end. I don't read much Young Adult books anymore but this one is among my favourites.

Gwen has come along way since the first book when she was introduced to a world full of magic following her Mum's death. Training to fight the forces of evil while under suspicion from all those around her hasn't been easy and here we join her for the action packed conclusion to the epic battle, which if Gwen fails, ...more

The final Gwen Frost book. I'm sad it's over cause I enjoyed going to the Mythos Academy with her and her friends.

Who knew a Gypsy Girl could be Nike's Champion and battle the evil God Loki. Not to mention all his henchmen & women.

I tried to savour this book and I lasted 5 days. Very unusual for me.

If you haven't read this YA series then please give it a try, from someone who doesn't read much YA at all, I found this series a good one. ...more

I am so sad it's over! I fell in love with Gwen, Daphne, Logan and their mythical world, so saying goodbye to all that is very hard and emotional.
