Publisher's Summary

The war between witches reaches its terrifying climax in the final book in Wall Street Journal bestselling author J.D. Horn’s spellbinding trilogy.

Once caged in an illusory realm by blood relatives, Alice Marin has been freed into a world where the last remnants of magic are quickly passing away. Dissolving with them is the unity among witches…and their sanity. Grappling with the revelations of her true parentage - and her burgeoning relationship with Nathalie Boudreau, a psychic with her own demons - Alice and her allies, both living and dead, must draw on every skill they possess. It’s the only way to defeat the destructive forces borne of the horrifying history of Alice’s own family. That means unlocking the final secrets of The Book of Unwinding. 

Now, on the longest night of the year, the streets of New Orleans will become a battleground as Alice and the few she can trust engage in a war amid the final days of magic. But the revelations that lie ahead may be too dark to escape.

Meh Ending to a Great Story

I loved the first book in the series, the second was a little drawn out, but still good. This one was.... eh. Seemed very long, like there were too many loose ends he couldn't tie up, so he built and built and built drama just to have it fizzle out. New characters were brought in to increase the tension, but didn't really serve a purpose except to make the story longer. Kind of hard to keep all of the threads aligned, especially since I listen on my commute and not in one long session. I recommend it only if you read the first two books and need closure.

I do enjoy the narrator, and will look for other audiobooks read by her.

Hated it.

this was literally the most disappointing book I've ever read, in my life. loved the first 2 in the series.
this one made no sence, kinda like the author didnt know how to end the series so he wrote down any an all ideas about this book, an published it. it literally left me confused. I'm so disappointed.

A Purrrrfect Conclusion

A great conclusion to a wonderful series. A great follow up to his Savana series too.

Great series - ending a bit confusing...

Rather confusing ending to a great story. I may have to listen to it again to see if I missed something significant the first time through...

Boring mess.

The book would be rather interesting if it didn’t feel like a an entire other book was missing. The plot it’s self is nonexistent, characters are introduced that mean nothing to the story nor have any real depth, there is more explaining of what is suppose to be happening with out any explanation of what IS happening. More than all of this it’s just kind of boring.

what just happened

I am trying to figure out what the heck just happened. It seems like the Author just got tired of the story and wrote anything just to tie up the storyline.

Truly enjoyed this

This is the conclusion of the trilogy, and it ties up everything nicely. A few twists and turns that surprised me but they were pleasant surprise's. All in all a good read and worth every minute. I highly recommend this trilogy of books

Want Moooore! Much more

Gripping. Loved it. The whole series from start to finish. Won’t write much else because it will all sound like hyperbole. Well deserved hyperbole, for certain. A new favorite author who I hope is as inspired to continue as I am to read.

Or, listen. The narrator for this series was fantastic, too.

If I have one pet peeve, though (and it is small and might not even be incorrect for all I know), it is how she pronounces the word “Loa,” usually pronounced in French, sounding like “Lwa.” Our narrator’s pronunciation is “Lo-wow” (like Shamwow) and it jolted me every time I heard it which is often in this series. It’s insignificant. Silly, really, and doesn’t detract from the brilliant, complicated story and wonderful characters.

Great

The series was so good, and that really is all I can say..Read them for yourselves and you will see!

the Disappointment is real

first book- great
2nd book- ok
3rd book -fail
I want the 3 hours I spent reading half this book back. I want a do over!
