I really enjoyed the books but did not like the way they split the story up into three books. Had I known ahead of time I would not have bought them. Susan Tisdale is a wonderful writer and I do enjoy her stories.

I would have enjoyed the series better if it didn't have the sex scenes.  At least they weren't as detailed as some books that I have had the misfortune to get.  One review described them as wholesome, I sure wouldn't say that. They seemed too modern to be in that time period.

These books were really funny.  However, too much time was spent on elaborate sexual content, plus the plots were dragged out.  It would have been better if the individual books were in order by when they happened.  I found it confusing all the referrals to previous happenings, but without a book referral listed.  I really did enjoy the humorous character interactions and found myself laughing a lot.  However, when I finished the "bundle of books" I was rather tired of the whole scenario and did not order any of the additional books at this time.

I got the first set of 3 books for free and loved them. So I bought the second set of 3 books and was a little disappointed. There was way too much re-telling of the previous books. And by book 6 I felt that if you took away the re-telling of the previous stories you were left with only a short story. However after reading 6 books I have become attached to the characters and kind of want to see what happens next. So at this point I am undecided if I will buy the next set of 3.

I really enjoyed the first two books and felt like they were well written. I didn't like the change in narration in the third book and felt like the ending was just kind of thrown together.

I want to start by saying that I don't want to discourage readers from this book and I do recommend this book. This is a good book especially for the readers who have kept up with this series. I read this book in one sitting less than 6 hrs which amazed me. I like the authors style of writing and I like the character development, and the actions and twist.

The reason I gave this book 3 stars instead of 5 is because I personally didn't like the way it ended. To me the wrong love affair died. Ever since the second book I was routing for a certain event to happen but I guess  it just wasn't in the author plans and that kinda left me disappointed. And also there was a character who throughout all the entire series that your given enough back story to where you can sympathize with him/her but I could not shake the dislike I felt this character . I wished that person didn't have the ending he/she did have and was swapped with another certain characters ending then I would've been so happy.

But books don't always end the way you want them too. I sure there are many (maybe tons) of readers who will love the survivors, but I can't help but mourn the casualty.

I loved the first book great characters.  Great world.  Second book was very good but the way it ended left a very bad taste in my mouth.  Maybe it was supposed to but the way the character is written I do not believe it would have ended that way.  But as for a book it was very well written.

The writing is quite good, the author's characterizations are excellent, and the books do read like Lee Child's Jack Reacher books.  However, I did not like the underlying tone of the books that Jack was some kind of a bad character.  I wish that thy would finally run into him, and perhaps make a collaborative team.

I really enjoyed these books and couldn't wait for the final part to come out, however, I have to say that I was really disappointed in the ending. It was a real let down after getting so invested in the first two parts.

I injoy your books immensely !the books get more interesting with the drama with the Sadness. You lost me with the misery part. Just  didn't seem realistic. Some parts. I love the passion and the sexing it's so raw

I enjoyed the book but did not like the ending at all. I know he wants to get us into the next book but just not the way I like it. Otherwise the book itself was fantastic like always.

I would recommend reading the fourth book first and then work your way back it makes more sense that way and that's actually how I read it I had picked up the fourth book and the print I picked up as a novel on its own and then I looked it up and found that there was three others so that I ordered the first second and and third and since I had the fourth one already but it wasn't in that print series so I ordered the fourth one did not seem print serious. I really don't like the fact they renamed each of the books with a different title the original was much better and it was more matching the book titles and the titles they have from what memory serves they do not share the what really is in the book

I have read each of the books but really didn't enjoy the last couple.... the best part of the book was the last chapter.

I finally read the books. Needless to say they were so much richer than the movies. Not that I didn't like the movies but you know how much better books are, and this was no exception. I do have to say the Phoenix book was a bit long.

Not gonna' lie, I was disappointed when I found this third book of the series to be based on Atretes and not around Hadassah and Marcus. I had grown to really enjoy those characters and wanted to read about their next adventure together with Christ as their center. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case..
  It was still a good book and was hard to put down, but I found myself wishing it had been different.

I really enjoy this series but this particular book had way too much going on in it which made it difficult to follow. That being said, I am still glad I read it.

The stories of course were great but I think the book shoulda been a hardcover especially since its so long and a bigger size then normal. I also didn't really care for the way they had the words so small and how they had two columns on one page. It was basically liek they were combining two pages on one which woulda been ok if the words were bigger. I also felt like there were some details and parts of some stories missing so they could make it shorter. I feel that way because I have read all of these books in the Oz series before and I felt like there were parts missing. Otherwise it was great reading!
