The compelling conclusion to the fantasical series follows young wit'ch Elena as she confronts the Dark Lord of Gul'gotha and battles against him in the deepest depths of his evil stronghold, but if she defeats him, powerful magicks could be released, which would destroy the land and the people of Alasea.

Alice

Five centuries after the destruction of the Mages of Alasea, a young girl, Elena, inherits the wild powers the Mages had so carefully concealed from their pitiless enemy. But though the Mages are long dead their ancient foe is not - and Elena must continue their battle with her hard-won outlaw army and her own mastery of the blood magick. Elena and her forces had defeated evil in an audacious attack, a wound cut deep into the Black Heart, but this isn't enough. The Dark Lord's greatest weapon, the Weirgates, continue their ravenous onslaught and the land's powers wane. The Elementals, those rare folk tuned to the Land's energy, are sickening, their abilities fading. The Mer'ai are losing their sea sense and the link to their dragons and the Elv'in ships can not fly as high or far... Now an ally dies in violence, whispering of a last betrayal and a stranger foretells victory or the death of all.

Sheila

Decent ending to this story overall - the final battle certainly met 'epic climax' expectations so that part especially was fun to read! This final book in the series featured the tightest writing in terms of the plot, & in my opinion the most key character development. I only wish the previous 4 books had been like this one. 

I still have certain Issues with a couple of things in this series, but overall an okay read for a classic epic fantasy. If I never see race names with unnecessary apostrophes ever again, it will be too soon.
