Description

Will’s journey from naïve apprentice to a mature wizard is almost complete, and his ever-growing mastery has reached unseen heights.

But his power does not exist in a vacuum. His rising star threatens to eclipse the existing powers and a new balance must be found, one that either accepts his primacy or extinguishes his light.

After Will’s resounding successes in the war with Darrow, the king plots to eliminate his young rival. Driven to desperation, Will is forced to negotiate for scraps between four brokers of power:

An ancient lich driven by vengeance, the fae queen—to whom all are just pawns in a deadly game, a nervous lord of Hell—because Will may have killed his predecessor, twice, and a primal beast—feared above all.

With mortal enemies as his allies, Will must survive to face the king...and the deadly secret he plans to unleash. Ancient foes have risen and the final battle has begun. With the world hanging in the balance, king and wizard clash, but only one can wear the Wizard’s Crown.

Very disappointing ending

I really like the first 4 books in the series until the 5 book, not sure what the writer was thinking. This last book was rushed and ended poorly.

Daenerys Targaryen has randomly burned the city.

The performance was outstanding. Applause for Mr. Reynolds! The action was exciting, but telegraphed in spots. Which is fine.

But the end-game plot and seemingly random character motivations ruined the series for me.

It felt like watching the final episode of Game Of Thrones where a few main characters of the series have motivations and reactions that just don't work with the rest of the series.

Most of the book is great. But the artificial-feeling ending leaves you feeling hollow, and cheated because the character flaws felt conveniently made up.

Like TV's Game Of Thrones, or LOST, you're left thinking "I came all this way for nothing?!"

I don't think a future book 6 would be able fix the damage done to the characters. I just don't like them anymore.

wtf was that ending???

I felt like the characters were too accepting of going to the dark side, but this was a bit extreme. kinda inconsistent too since sometimes they were fine with dark magic and sometimes they were cool with it. I guess the moral of the story is "helping people destroys your life" lol. overall I enjoyed it still. sound quality varied sometimes the recording sounded off in parts and I could notice the cuts.

A weird book compared to the last 4

story is full of strange moments where the characters do things that don’t line up with who they have been over the last four books. A few large plot holes and very unsatisfying end that just made little sense. Hopefully there is another book to come that makes sense of the mess made in this one.

An Unsatisfying End I Liked

To me this ending was one I enjoyed because it wasn't all flowers and rainbows. Will's protectiveness of his loved ones drives him to ultimately stifle their potential, and his poor communication alienates them. As a result of trying to avoid pain by protecting them, this selfishness inadvertently causes him more pain in the end.

It would have been a much more satisfying ending if Will had learned to let his loved ones take risks on his behalf. But in spite of being warned, he still persists in his selfish protectiveness, and everything doesn't work out perfectly for him.

There were some parts of the narration where names were mispronounced compared to earlier books, which was a bit strange. Also I didn't like that Will's second innate talent causes him to kind of lose his moral compass. It seemed a bit random, where before only excessive power (like from a ritual) had this effect. It seems like innate power shouldn't be overwhelming to this same degree.

The villian death in this book is brutal and weighty feeling, along with a more appropriate build up. In some of the earlier books the fights can feel a little too quick and easy for the description of how tough Will's opponents are meant to be.

Overall I thought this ending was more fitting than a pleasant ending would have been.

My heart

It is a sad ending and I loved the series only to have my heart ripped out at the end. I saw the foreshadowing but I was like no way that's gonna happen right??

An unsatisfying journey

Art of the adept was the most interesting and exciting fiction I had experienced in years, and I loved every single book up till this one. Characters that were established make surprising uncharacteristic choices and arcs, many felt like shadows of their former selves from the previous books. The end of the story felt a bit drawn out and rushed at the same time, which is such a contrast to the pacing of the previous books. there are a few loose ends which I hope means there may be another book on the way... this would be the one time I would actually love and support a sequel starting with the trope "it was all a dream". It even felt like Tim Gerard Renyolds was not enjoying the story, as accents were off, and names were mispronounced, which is not something I typically notice with his performances.

Not the ending I wanted

First off id like to say this book is quite good, pretty much the same quality as the previous books but the ending of this book was rough but with a little happiness, I would say tho the MC pretty much got what he always wanted in the end but with a lot of heartache. Now that I look back and think about the plot throughout this series this is the only logical way this story could have finished. I do recommend you finish this book to complete the series even tho many people are unhappy with the ending aka not getting happily ever after. I assume its never easy to end an epic series like this for any author but Michael pulled it off.
