“This is my second-favorite book in the series, and a solid ending. It's melancholy, but there is still hope in it.”

“I loved the series as a whole, and this book, in particular, right up until the end. Somehow the end of a series always strikes me as anticlimactic -so much build up that the end can't possibly live up to it! It was good, and I guess I got closure, but I just wasn't ready to be done.”

“Cooper does a great job of closing the series, but still leaving room for the characters to move on. I prefer books that don't have pat endings, where it almost seems as though the characters stop when the story does. With Will and friends, they live on because their story doesn't really end. ”

“This is the final book in the Dark is Rising series. Just as good as the other ones. But, the ending is kind of lame. I loved the part when the got the crystal sword. ”

“The final book in this pentology took me a while to get into, mainly because some of the characters seemed to act on such an abstract level that I found it hard to care too much about what was happening. (And I was never particularly engaged with the Drew children.) But somewhere in the middle of the Lost Land, especially through the character of Gwion, I became much more engaged, and the last half of the book was amazing. Susan Cooper creates a beautiful fantasy here, and the conclusion is very satisfying.”

“The final book in Susan Cooper's The Dark is Rising series. Will Stanton, Bran, Jane, Simon, and Barney must work together with Merriman to drive the Dark back for good. Arthurian legend and Celtic mythology enhance this already beautiful fantasy plot, making it one of the benchmark series in the genre of children's fantasy.”
