"I read these through 2007 and finished the third book in March 2008. These books are one of the few series of YA fantasy I can think of that are UNIQUE. I'd never read anything like them. Nicholson creates a really intriguing world, and keeps adding interesting new elements in each book. He also has great skill at choosing character names!"

    " I feel as though I should have stopped reading after the second book. I liked the addition of Mist and there were some ok parts here and there but overall it just seemed to be a pointless addition to the previous books. Very little happens and it just ends up being 300 pages of travelling from point a to point b with a whole lot of death inbetween. Not to mention the rushed romances, all the main characters pair off at the end, except Kestrel who has to die because she can't love. In the end all of the interesting characters are either dead or have matured to the point of being extremely dull and boring. On a final and slightly immature note I would like to add that Pinto is extremely annoying and should have been burnt in the cage in Slaves of the Mastery. "

    " Great trilogy. The last book was a bit predictable and wasn't as good as the first two books. I really don't like the philosophy that people keep living through the memories of other people. That seems to be the atheist or agnostic's view about death, I guess. Without an understanding about the plan of salvation a lot of people seem to hold on to the belief that people don't really die if they live on in the memories of those who live. That concept kind of spoiled the book for me. "

    " I know the ending was supposed to be sweet and sentimental, but as an only child and an introvert, I found it more than a little creepy. The series did end, though it achieved finality with a neat little bow (a neat little creepy bow). "

    " Sadly I remembered the central twist minutes after the librarian put the book into my hands, despite it being some years since I last read it. Not as good as the first in the trilogy, but still resulted in an enjoyable couple of hours of reading: a nice Saturday afternoon. "
