    The conclusion of the Dies the Fire trilogy. Great ending!

    A little bit slower than book 2 but what an excellent series so far. What a tough ending to book three, though. I'm looking forward to the Sunrise Lands coming out in paperback. Three days later and I'm still thinking about that line, "Well, that sucks!", and how tough the ending is. If I'm still thinking about a book that long after I've finished it, it deserves five stars. Duly changed.

    I tried to dress up as Astrid Larson for Halloween. She's my favorite character, I love how she always teeters on the edge of being stark raving bonkers, yet at the same time is powerful enough to make a Valkyrie run away screaming. So I found a blond wig and a sword, but I threw it together at the last minute, and I couldn't find a way to get a suit of chainmail or any Dunedain heraldry. So I put on a medieval-looking dress and said I was Lady Juniper instead. Oh, well.

    The last in the "Dies the Fire" trilogy. Unlike the second novel, this title actually refers to something in the book (albeit in the last few chapters). The different factions finally head to war in this post-apocalyptic trilogy. The story is wrapped up in a way that is satisfying but makes you wonder if there could be more installments down the road about the next generation.

    ETA: This trilogy is part of Stirling's "Emberverse." A new, follow-up series is being published starting in 2007 with "The Sunrise Lands."

    Adds a good ending to the series. Makes you wanting another series. It ties everything together; however, the end made me cry.

    This book is of the type that makes me take the dust jacket off because I am so ASHAMED that I like this kind of thing. I like the secret shoutouts to fantasy & sci-fi authors. I like the subversive jabs the author makes about SCA, LOTR & role playing types. I even like that the author himself is a RAGING NERD (do a google search & you will see what i mean). Because of this, I will be kind of sad when I finish this one. I like post-apocalyptic medieval Oregon. Even if the story is kinda hack-y.

    OH! THERE'S A SEQUEL!!! My inner nerd trembles.
