Publisher Description
""I've already drunk my fill of blood, so live a little longer. Breathe fora while and watch what's about to unfold.""
Thomas Ward has spent two years as the Spook's apprentice. He's faced unimaginable peril, and survived. But a new danger has emerged: an ancient water witch, Bloodeye, is roaming the County intent on destroying everything in her path. To strengthen his skills, Tom is sent to the far north to train with the demanding Bill Arkwright. Arkwright lives in a haunted mill on the edge of a treacherous marsh, and his training methods prove to be harsh and sometimes cruel. Will Tom's new bag of tricks be enough to overcome a critical mistake that leaves him confronting Bloodeye on his own?

"This was a cool change of location. Each of the books has a different setting where most of the action takes place, and this was the best one so far, a swamp with fucking awesome water witches! Some of the cool characters from the last book show up, and then the devil shows back up again at the end."

Quotes
-
“Joseph Delaney has created a story with familiar fantasy elements…but here our hero makes multiple mistakes, and his teenage antics will draw in young readers. The constant plot twists and turns add to the already suspenseful story thread. The reader does not have a clue about how this story will end until the last page…an easy and fun read.”

" ok but a bit too similar too the others. they all seem to have the same storyline! "
— Tjala, 1/18/2014 -
" These books are so short that I've come to think of the books as just one chapter in a larger book. Liking the direction it seems to be going, so far. "
— Arni, 1/13/2014 -
" This book is still pretty good. I thought it would get a little boring since it's already the fifth one in the series but it's not :) There are a couple of heart-racing and heart-breaking moments. Can't wait to read the next one "
— Shiela, 9/12/2013 -
" Okay, I'm done with this series. I read about halfway through, but the situations are getting too desperate for me to enjoy the story and it's too weird mixing religious topics such as the devil with witches, boggarts, etc. I don't hate it, but I'd rather read something a bit more uplifting. "
— Jacquie, 7/25/2013 -
" water witches, dark days ! "
— Chris, 6/21/2013 -
" Absolutely amazing series. I can't wait to see how the relationships between Tom & Alice & the Spook change. This book leaves the question of whether Alice will turn out to be good or bad very open. "
— Brett, 5/29/2013 -
" I read The Last Apprentice: Wrath of the Bloodeye (Book 5) but I think it's the same book. I'm addicted to this series! "
— Elly, 5/7/2013 -
" The fifth in the series of books by Joseph Delaney; although suggested for later elementary students, I wouldn't recommend this series for that age--it is too scary. The books are best read in the order they were written, so if you haven't read them, start with #1. "
— Rita, 4/23/2013 -
" Much like a more grown-up version of Harry Potter. "
— Justin, 4/12/2013 -
" I thought the book started a little slower than the other books in the series. But, by the end, the pace and storyline really picked up and really has me looking forward to the next four books in the series. "
— Ken, 3/27/2013 -
" Flash! The spook used a spell against the witch. The boy has now grown up and became a real spook. his tutor died in a fight vs the witches. But he survived. The book is still about the same thing as the first book. It is about a spook who tries to save the world. the question is will he save it? "
— Tom, 3/12/2013 -
" I really enjoyed this book. :) Now on to the next! "
— Amelia, 2/21/2013 -
" Finished this book in 3 days - these suit me they are quick and entertaining and let me sleep. "
— Jessica, 1/22/2013 -
" I dunno. Characters dont change in this series. Grow, improve, kickass. I have a feeling that might change sometime soon, but for now it kind of sucks. "
— Phleghm, 10/5/2012 -
" Tom does a few months with another Spook who is tough and struggles with drinking and his dead parents who still "live" in his house. Tom fights water witches and other dark water nasties, and has more encounters with the Fiend. "
— MiriLou, 8/30/2012 -
" I have become obsessed by this series. Each book in the series gets darker and yet I want to know what happens next to the apprentice, the spook and Alice. "
— Mary, 8/10/2012 -
" He needs to write more!! "
— Kris, 4/5/2011 -
" The copy of this book I got from the library is titled "Wrath of the Bloodeye". Weird that a book is in print with some having one title and others another. <br/><br/>Scary scary scary. "
— Nikki, 3/27/2011 -
" Best yet, I cant wait to read the next one......Listening to this on CD is great, the reader is one of the best I have heard. "
— Linda, 3/20/2011 -
" I kind of stalled this one but what a read! It just keeps getting better. I like the character of Bill Arkwright, very different from John Gregory and I'm also taking a liking on Grimalkin. The twist in the end, although not merely unexpected, still it makes the story much more interesting. "
— Maj, 3/3/2011 -
" I love this series of books! This story is wonderful loved it! "
— Caroline, 2/5/2011 -
" Ce cinquième tome est à la hauteur des précédents! <br/>Au programme de ce tome, de l'aventure, de nouvelles sorcières, des alliances qu'on n'aurait jamais imaginées et des révélations sur Alice... "
