Alliance answers a lot of questions and there are plenty of plot twists, but none of them surprised me. I was bored while reading and I even skimmed certain parts. I don't know if my lack of interest was because I'm in a reading slump. I also couldn't take the monsters, villains, fantasy and sci-fi aspects seriously.
The main characters who sometimes veered into stereotypical territory in The Paladin Prophecy are straight-up stereotypes in Alliance. I didn't care about the characters because I had a sense that they would always succeed or make it out alive.
The one thing that is a complete failure in Alliance is the romance. I hate that Will leads both Elsie and Brooke on and I also couldn't stand the kisses and declarations of love that came out of nowhere.
I can't think of anything that I liked about Alliance and I'm hoping that Rouge redeems The Paladin Prophecy series.
