[RoXXie]

Wow, what a great end of that series. It's really a touching story and very very breathtaking in so many situation throughout the book.
And when it came up to find and show off the real murderer I would never had expected "that" character to be the one.
Two more words: Loved It!

Very happy I read this series again, had so much fun reading about these characters again !! Still so much love for this world and their inhabitants :)
Maybe I will read Bloodlines too after this... Want more Adrian haha.

this was a great finally book. It had a nice twist at the end with Tasha being the killer. So happy about the ending though sad about Adrian, but so happy about her & dimitri

I'm a little sad that it's over, but it was an AWESOME journey! I'm glad my day job is not to investigate crime, because I was totally wrong about Queen Tatiana's killer!!

WOW! What a perfect ending to this series! I loved it all! I cried, I laughed, and I was really scared for Rose and Dimka at times.
So well written, and I'm so happy about the way things ended.
I was totally blown away by who actually murdered Tatiana, though!
And I did feel sorry for Adrian, but to me, he and Rose were never really meant to be.
Still, I'm also happy that there will be more Vampire Academy books in the future, even if they won't follow Lissa and Rose like these first six books.
Oh, and I totally love Abe. The Zmey rocks :)

It all comes down to now.
The Queen is dead and the moroi world will never be the same.
Rose Hathaway is awaiting wrongful execution and there exists only one man who can stall this terrible fate. Rose must look to both Dimitri and Adrian, the two great loves of her life, to find him.
With her best friend, Lissa, in a deadly struggle for the royal throne, the girls find themselves forced to rely upon enemies and questioning those they thought they could trust...

But what if true freedom means sacrificing the most important thing of all?
Each other. From the back of the book.

What can I possibly say other than WOW! I am just... completely out of words. I have no idea what I could possibly say or where I could start to make you understand just how brilliant this book is. I am just completely blown away!

As we found out in the end of the last book, Spirit Bound, Rose was framed for the muder of Queen Tatiana - who had left a note for Rose stating that Lissa's father had an illegitamate child that Rose needed to find in order to give Lissa the vote on the Council, or things were going to get worse for all in the Moroi and Dhampir society. So that left three tasks for this book; find the Queen's murderer, clear Rose's name, and finding Lissa's sister.

As with any Vampire Academy novel, there is a fast pace with brilliant action. But there is also extreme emotion, for the characters and the readers. There are some perfect, perfect moments, and some terribly sad moments where you could just cry. Things are much more dangerous for our two girls than they have been before, and the tension is palpable. There is shock after shock as the twists unfold - you will not see these things coming. So much goes on in this novel, new things not even the characters have come across before, and it's hard to see how all of it fit into one 584 page novel. So much that I am going to refrain from going into any sort of detail, because there is just so much you should discover as you read - you're going to thank me!

We do get our answers though. We find out who killed the Queen. We find out who Rose's sibling is. We find out who lives and who dies. We find out the resolution of the love triangle. We find out where Rose and Lissa's lives will head. We find questions that aren't answered, issues that arise, and just a brilliant set up for the next spin of series, and the perfect ending to what has been an incredible series. And I absolutely cannot wait for the next series!
