Publisher's summary

The world is on the verge of war, and only the Magebreakers can stop it. The exciting conclusion to the Magebreakers saga!

The nations of the Continent are on the verge of declaring war with Audland over the actions of the man who would be the next Mage Emperor, and only Tane, Kadka, Indree, and Tinga know the truth about Endo Stooke's plot. The problem is, they're on the run, blamed for the attempted assassination of the Belgrian Kaiser. And the non-magical forces gathering off Audland's coast are the perfect target for the terrible spell Endo has created—a spell that saps the life out of anyone without magic. A spell that won't be sated by foreign armies alone, if it reaches Audish shores.

With few friends to count on, fewer resources, and time quickly running out, the Magebreakers have no choice but to sneak back into their homeland as fugitives in the hopes of stopping Endo before he plunges the world into the next Mage War.

overall pretty good series

I really liked this series. It would be nice if the author wrote a spin-off on the adventure of Professor you know who. The final book seemed a little rushed but all loose ends were dealt with. There were a few inspiring moments and the ending is hopeful. You won't be sorry if you give this series a go. Too bad there was a narrator switch, although the new narrator was quite good.

Nice conclusion to series

I didn't like this book quite as much as much as the previous in the series but it wrapped up things nicely in a fitting conclusion. Part of the issue was that this story was too short. The final battle took up half the book and I feel like there should have been more plot in the middle.

Having said that, all our favorite characters are in this one. The series as a whole has the perfect blend of magic, creatures and familiar fantasy races. This story was no different and with the addition of dragons, what more could you ask for?

Narration was great. I liked the original narrator just a little bit more but Joe Hempel did a great job, it just took a little getting used to. This was made a little easier in that Hempel did a good job matching the accents and voices of the original narrator.

I really enjoyed this series and I'm a little sad to see it ending so soon.

Return of the Mage Breakers

A well done conclusion to the Mage Breakers. This story wasted little time getting to the action. Several plot threads are tied up.

Overall I enjoyed the series and the ending was worth the payoff. The world is vibrant and I would like to see another series explore it more with new cast members.
