Resumen del Editor

The final instalment of the Last Dragonslayer Chronicles, demonstrating that with a small band of committed followers, a large tin of resolve and steely determination, almost anything can be achieved....

Sixteen-year-old Jennifer Strange and her sidekick and fellow orphan Tiger Prawns have been driven to the tip of the UnUnited Kingdoms - Cornwall - by the invasion of the Trolls. Their one defence is a six-foot-wide trench full of buttons, something which the Trolls find unaccountably terrifying (it's their clickiness).

Worse than being eaten by Trolls is the prospect of the Mighty Shandar requisitioning the Quarkbeast and using him to achieve supreme power and domination - an ambition that has been 400 years in the planning and which will ultimately leave the Earth a cold cinder, devoid of all life.

Nothing has ever looked so bleak, but Jennifer, assisted by a renegade vegan Troll, a bunch of misfit sorcerers, the Princess (or is she now the ruler?) of the UnUnited (or are they now United?) Kingdoms, and Tiger, must find a way to vanquish the most powerful wizard the world has ever seen, and along the way discover the truth about her parents, herself, and what is in the locked glovebox of her VW Beetle....

Great ending

The third book brought a great ending to the story that initially was quite juvenile. Applause to the author.

Finally! An audio version worthy of the Jennifer Strange series!

This was extremely enjoyable; what a great wrapup to an amazing series. The narrator finally got it right! No screeching feminine voices or ridiculous masculine interpretations, I was gratified to note that reviews are noticed and taken into account.
Compared to the former books in the series, this one it hits the mark 100%, not only in story and overall writing, but performance as well.

fell in love Thursday

I've been reading every book this author has put out there. This series was just the latest I followed. As the author did with the Thursday Next series, his character's voices are fresh and engaging. I hear myself responding the exact way his characters do. Calm, even if it's a troll discussing the best garnish for a meal of humans. Now, I've just got to wait till his next project. *looks at watch* Geeze, thought the newest book would be out by now. Definitely urge readers to dive deep into ALL the author's books.

Rollicking good conclusion to a wonderful series

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed this series. Fforde is great at world building, magical systems, character development and humor. Like a combination of Piers Anthony and Brandon Sanderson. I love his work.

The Mighty Fforde & His Science Fantasy

I listened to this in one day and just love how Jasper Fforde ties things together, whether it's how Jane Eyre got it's ending or making himself a character - making impossible (rather than improbable) stories.

Satisfying ending to the series

Took a bit to get used to the new narrator but she did a good job. Concerned at first that the ending was going to be rushed and frustrating but he ended it well and it made sense.

I thoroughly enjoyed this reading oh The Great Troll War. I know it was good when I’m sad it’s over.

A Fforde classic, magnificent end to the story

This book is a wonderful cap to the Dragonslayer series, but it’s more than that… maybe one of Fforde’s best books. It has many of his trademark elements we so love: satire, humor, intrigue, , and more.

From humor reminiscent of Thursday Next to the dystopian memes similarly hued to Shades of Grey, this book sings Fforde, but to its own melody. Love it!
