The entire series is outstanding. Wish the author would have left out the sex scenes. I loved the series and would normally have passed on books like this to daughters and friends... but not with the explicit sex scenes. I wish more authors would realize that it would take nothing away from the story line to leave these out... I would have rated it a 5-star series without these explicit details.

Unfortunately, I think the series peeked with the first 2 books.  In my opinion, it has gone down hill since.  I am hoping they conclude the series with a riveting final book.

I Thought the book wrapped up the series nicely.  I was sorry that there would be no more books in this series.

If you have not read the books I would suggest it as there is much missing due to time constraint But Over all great series that relays close to the books I have loved so long!!

I loved the series, so was a bit loathe to read the novelization. This was a surprisingly fun novel to read-- and I was sorry that it ended.

Loved it.  Just  wish the series had not ended there.

I enjoyed all of the series but I hope there aren't any more. I probably should have not read all three together. Usually I skip one of a series and read a different type of book in between. I do recommend this if you enjoy mysteries and don't like bad language in books.

I really liked these books. The characters are well-developed and the story lines are riveting. I had to hold back one star because of what I believe is a serious continuity problem. In the earlier stories, Jack retired because of a drug deal that killed everyone in his SWAT team but Jack, who was seriously injured. The main theme of the third book is based on Jack's last SWAT op being a bank heist in which he was injured but his team survived. Maybe there is an explanation, or maybe I'm missing something. It wouldn't be a big deal if this weren't a series. It seems to me that the author should have been more careful about the series story line.  Regardless, this is a great series, and I am looking forward to the next book.

I have enjoyed this series and the supplemental books very much. I am sad to see it end. This book did a nice job of winding everything up satisfactorily. Without spoilers (hopefully) I will say that I liked that everyone was given their chance against Him.

I do have two caveats to my 4 star rating of this book and it actually goes for the series in general. Nine is an entirely underused character. He is hilarious and can you imagine what the series would be like if we could read it from his perspective occasionally? The second thing about this series that felt a little off (especially in the last two books) was the level of swearing and the words used. I really felt this wasn't necessary and didn't contribute in any way to adding tension to a scene. The earlier books don't have this but the last two are peppered with swearing.  Initially I thought it was particular to certain characters (part of their personality) but in the last book it is everywhere.

This was such a nice series and I was really looking forward to this volume... but it was never published.  I corresponded with the writer some years ago and she confirmed that it was never printed, even though there's ISBN and other information.  Sorry to deliver bad news!

Awesome series.  Just wish it hadn't been moved to a subscription provider.  Feel like I was short changed.

I have loved this series from the beginning and when rereading it I found out that there were 4 more books. I one-clicked without reading the blurb and after a few chapters I regretted it. However I needed to know how it ended. Some really messed up things happen between Vince and Maggie that I personally would not be able to overlook but maybe forgive. But after reading the rest of the books I have to say that I'm glad I continued to read them and not give up on this series.

Wish there where more than two books in the series.

I absoutely love this series and was thrilled to find these earlier works by the author. The book was brand new as promised by the seller - I just wish they had included within the description that no book jacket was available.

I very much enjoyed this series.  The hero, Fitz, was original and believable.  I read the series faster than I have any book in the last year, easily.  The ending of the series was sad in many ways, but would have been sadder if Hobb had taken the easy way out and pasted a happy ending on poor Fitz's journeys.  I am actually hoping things come together for him a bit more in the Tawny Man series, but I can't read that one until the last book comes out (too hard to wait to see the ending).

I read the first three books in the series, and they would actually stand alone, as the author did very well in covering the previous material early on in each book. It was a great series, as far as it went. I would like to have seen him continue the book into the era of the millennial reign, or maybe do that as a "Book 5."  To me, it just didn't seem to have a real ending. I was a little disappointed when I finished reading it, for that reason, but it really was a good series, well developed characters and plots. Thanks, Ken Abraham!

Potential Spoilers - The conclusion to this series seemed appropriate enough. However, I would have a different name for the realm and would have preferred to see the transformation of the 'new' realm. I wanted a little more closure to the series. I have to say that I am not a war/tactical person. Therefore, I was lost on the strategies by Ryne, Kerrick, and Avry which slowed me down a lot. I really would have liked a little more about the plague and the second plague. With it being the Healers series, I wouldn't mind finding more details about this than the tactical moves. A nice touch to this series was the Death and Peace Lilies. I feel they bring out the importance of Avry's mission and I greatly enjoyed her communication with them. In addition, I found Kerrick's link to the living green as equally important and would have liked to find out more about his magic.
