The Last Apprentice: Fury of the Seventh Son (Book 13)

By: Joseph Delaney

Narrated by: Alexander Cendese

The thirteenth—and final—book in the internationally bestselling fantasy adventure series that inspired the forthcoming major motion picture Seventh Son. Finally, Tom Ward, the spook's last apprentice, will confront the Fiend for the last time. A stunning conclusion to the acclaimed series!

Tom Ward has battled boggarts, ghasts, witches, dark gods, and the most terrifying creatures to roam the earth. He's allied with the witch assassin Grimalkin, with a powerful boggart, and with Alice . . . the young witch who is also his true love. And he has kept one step ahead of the Fiend, the most evil being in the world. Now he will vanquish the Fiend once and for all. But it will require a terrible sacrifice: not everyone Tom cares about will survive the final battle. The Last Apprentice series is soon to be a major motion picture, Seventh Son, starring Jeff Bridges, Ben Barnes, Alicia Vikander, Kit Harington, Olivia Williams, Antje Traue, Djimon Hounsou, and Julianne Moore as Mother Malkin. It's a suspenseful thrill ride that's "spine-tingling" (Publishers Weekly) and "anything but tame" (Horn Book). But don't read it after dark!

Great book/Reader!

Would you listen to Fury of the Seventh Son again? Why?

Yes, I would honestly listen to it again, as it is a very enticing story.

What other book might you compare Fury of the Seventh Son to and why?

Those who definitely enjoyed the Harry Potter series (That I read/listened to previously before this) Would definitely find this interesting.

What does Alexander Cendese bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Well when I first listened to him I admittedly hadn't expected a voice like his, yet after this first chapter it was easily likable, and his voice impersonation of most of the male characters were fantastic, though some of the females were a bit far fetched such as Grimalkin, but that doesn't mean they were bad. Just more or less just unexpected.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I felt as though at the end of the book, they way he described the final moments towards the end seemed somewhat touching, almost even more than when I previously read it.

Any additional comments?

Great book, great voice actor, and if it is in fact the last book in the series as I'm told, (Hopefully not, as I'm more than likely misinformed.) a wonderful book to read, though to go on further would spoil it for some.

This a fantastic series

it was a fantastic series and i loved it. A very suitable ending. with my only complaint personally being for the audio book specifically. Why the sudden switch of narrators for the last book?
Don't get me wrong it was a great narration. it was just a little jaring at first because the two are so different vocally.

There better be another book on the way

What did you love best about Fury of the Seventh Son?

Any additional comments?

Love this series

A bit disappointed

I have listened to all the books, then, on the last book they change the voices. I didnt like the ending when Tom refuses to help the witch assasin and refuses to use the start sword.

Meh

This last book just feels different from the rest. Not in a "aw it's the end" kind of way. More like, it doesn't really match the entire series kind of way. Cratch and Grimalkin are the best characters. Glad they were a big part of the ending.
