The elaborate plot, shifting allegiances, personal tragedy, and heroic triumphs combine to make Heir of Novron the best volume of the series. It was impossible to put it down. I don't want to give away any spoilers, but I've never read a book before that got me to change my mind about characters as successfully as this one did. Heroes become villains and villains become heroes in a whirlwind of a story that never has a dull moment yet never feels forced or hurried. It's a must read.

Oh man, that ending, had me in tears not gonna lie and I'm a dude.. I called two of the mysteries in the book before they happened and I was pretty proud of that. It wasn't the ending I was hoping for but 'my ending' would of been a plot changer for it to work but it was definitely bitter sweet, that's for sure. Royce Melborn, like I said in the previous book's review, I've never read a book yet with a character like his and I just freakin' love him. I don't think I have it in me to read the prequels since I already know the ending's 'rewards' but oh well, this trilogy was great.

This is quite possibly the best series I have ever read. If I had to describe it I'd say it's a bit like the best parts of Tolkien and Joss Whedon were smashed together and then struck by a lightening bolt of epicness. If you read this series, start with this book, don't start with the prequel despite that it reads correctly that way timeline-wise. You will want to read it starting with this book, then the next two consecutively, and lastly go back and then read the prequels.
