Customer Reviews

Not as good as the first 2, but it still has something of worth to say.

I read 75% of this in one sitting because I couldn’t stop reading it! A strong and satisfying ending to the Princess Academy trilogy. Miri’s character and the tone of the books remain consistent, which works really well paired with the different settings and themes each book tackles. The book starts off with Miri traveling on her own to a completely unfamiliar setting. Fortunately, with linder nearby and several letters between chapters, the book doesn’t suffer from the sudden, complete change that so often drags down other books. Like always, the characters are really well-done, specifically the female characters, because the book focuses on those the most. Although the Queen isn’t in the book very much, I found her arc compelling (especially as a continuation from the first book). I liked the sisters a lot, too. Their bond with Miri was really sweet. It was not quite as strong as the first or second book in my opinion. The ending felt a little unrealistic, but overall it had strong, good themes, was well-written and generally clever, and was a very enjoyable read. I never had to push myself to keep reading, it was always interesting and enjoyable.
