"Yay, I love these books! I do hate the villain in this, and that Alanna had to have a 'mage duel' that felt very unresolved. I think my only complaint about this series is that the pacing is super incredibly quick. There is no weight to Alanna's adventures. But whatever, they are still fun." — Brittneigh (4 out of 5 stars)

" Enjoyable ending to this series. Though it's the only one I read in print and I think I slightly prefer Pierce in audiobook. "
" This story was almost two books/ stories rolled into one. There were a few new characters and one in-particular, Liam Iornarm. I was slightly irratated that him and Alanna had a fling. It's like, every avalible man just 'has' to be her love intrest. "
" overall this book was good, i didnt like the ending scene between alanna and duke roger. "
" It seems like all of Tamora Pierce's books are difficult for me to settle into initially and then impossible to put down. So glad I finally got around to finishing the last book in this great quartet. "

" A very good book! It is very sad though. I still wish Alanna and Jon stayed together but still one of the best books I have ever read! "
" My favorite of the Lioness Quartet. Alanna is all grown up and in a few short months she achieves wha others wouldn't in a lifetime. "
" See book #1 for thoughts - Alanna the first adventure "
" i love song of the lioness series.. the only thing i didn't like is that Alanna didn't end up with Jon. for me, they are the better couple.. i could have given this a higher rating, but i really didn't like that she ended up with George instead of Jon :( "
" A good ending. I liked how it all fell together and how she finally realized who was best for her. "
" Oh man, YA fantasy always gets me because even though you KNOW it's gonna happen, I'm never quite ready for the killing-off-a-beloved-character thing. ::sniffle:: "
" Alanna's story finally completes its circle. The series is very well written and the story flows pleasantly. "
" I truly loved and still love these books because even though the main characters were teenagers they behave with a decided lack of teenage angst. "
