review 1: This is the last in the series 80AD, and it made a cracking end to the storyline.Phoenix and Jade are now in the final level, but Jade has been separated from her companions and taken by Zhudai. She is scared, alone, and wants to go home, so finds herself wanting to believe him when he promises that he won't harm her or her friends. They, on the other hand, are determined to rescue her before she makes the wrong decisions.The books have all concentrated on the restoration of balance as being the key to success, and this one also focuses on calling things by their correct name. All through the books they have been led towards self-realisation, and acceptance of themselves for who they are, not for what they are not, and this is the one which has more of the philosophical... more side of things.Both Phoenix and Jade are then transported back to their own world, having defeated Zhudai, but really having realised that the ultimate quest, to master the Yu Dragon, was actually to master their own self doubts, and to be who they are meant to be.The only jarring point in the book, I found, was towards the end, when there is a reference to an accident on the freeway...this is in Cambridge, England, and so please use motorway!!!Overall, the series was excellent, but definitely should be read in order.
review 2: I am really sorry that the series have ended. I really enjoyed the adventure and the characters. I will gravely miss them and their little quirks. In all this book was book was amazing. Lots of twists and turns, especially since I did not expect them to come up. Definitely an emotional roller coaster towards the middle of the book until the end of the quest. I do recommend this book to everyone. It is a great read for all ages. less
