That's not saying it wasn't good, I just think that if Savannah had her powers there would have been more action. Though I was glad we got to see some characters from earlier in the series. Still a great ending and I highly recommend this series! ( ) Thirteen 3.5 Stars The narrative in this final installment is presented via the shifting perspectives of the various heroines in the series - Elena, Paige, Eve, Jamie, Hope and Savannah. Each provides closure for their respective storylines, but the sequences from Elena's point of view are the most compelling. This only reinforces the idea that this series would have been much better if the focus had remained on her rather than introducing so many other characters and plots. Nevertheless, this particular book completes Savannah's arc as she comes to terms with her heritage and her powers. While there is some development for her character - she matures from the spoiled and bratty girl of the previous books to a young woman who takes responsibility and considers the consequences of her actions - there is still an irritating disconnect between the apparent strength of her powers and her actual ability to use them effectively. The romance is also disappointing as Adam and Savannah never live up to their potential. Unfortunately, their relationship still reads more like bickering siblings than lovers. The one and only sex scene is glossed over so quickly it might never have happened at all. All in all, despite the ups and downs of the series, the Women of the Otherworld has had its exciting and compelling moments, and this book does provide a satisfying conclusion overall. The exciting conclusion to the Women of the Otherworld series, the reader follows Savannah Levine on one final journey, where all the rules seem to be broken as she reunites with her mother temporarily on the mortal plane. Alternating perspectives briefly, readers get some final moments with their favourite women of the otherworld, as the characters stop a demon's master plan. This novel concludes the series, though it lives on in the Y.A. spin-offs, novellas and other short stories. no reviews | add a review
