Ratings and reviews

This book is the fifth and final in the Electi series. The Judge we have heard about in the previous books reveals himself. This book is a little different in that the first half of the book is a gradual building of the storyline and characters beyond what we might have seen in other books. The story shares quite a lot of information about Afghanistan – customs, dress, the role of women and so forth. The second half of the book connects all the dots from previous books in the series and offers a surprise at the end – in true Elise Noble style, leaving connections to future stories in other of her series. I recommend reading the other four books in this series before reading this one, but it is not necessary to follow the storyline.

Judged another spectacular installment from the Electi series is a thrilling story, full of intrigue, action packed, Romance and suspense predominantly set against real life occurence in Afghanistan. Ms Noble was able to bring us the people's culture with so many twist and turns with the hints of the paranormal world where the final puzzle of the Electi now came into play and fits perfectly as the book keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout the story. It is a great read and a worth while read which you wouldn't regret.

Judged can be read as a standalone book, but do yourself a favour and read it as the conclusion to the Electi series. Elise Noble's beautiful descriptions of different countries and cultures draw you in and give insight into other people's lives. I love how the main characters aren't the only ones showing personal growth. We get to share in Ro and Ziya's journey, with enough plot twists and excitement to ensure you don't put the book down until the very last page.
