every single book in this series is better than the last and honestly, I love the gilded wolves series, but this one is superior. more later.

I can’t believe I am done with Aru Shah. It was a part of my life for quite some time, even if at times it had more of a ghostly presence - the TBR is always too huge to get to all of the books right away…

This review (and a giveaway!) and many more can be found on my blog: Feed Your Fiction Addiction
This final installment in the Pandava Series starts out with our heroes at their lowest. The kids have to figure out how to rely on their own innate talents to stop the Sleeper now that they’re weaponless. All while fighting the sting of betrayal and massive self-doubt. As always, this series is a fun ride. We get adventure, magical hijinks, and a heaping serving of Hindu folklore with a dash of romance and a few moral dilemmas sprinkled in. The humor and perfect pacing will keep kids turning the pages until the final confrontation, where we get a satisfying ending for everyone. I’ll admit that I’m sad to see our friends the Potatoes go, but this was a very fitting end to the journey!
(And maybe, just maybe Chokshi left the door open for a possible future story? There was a teensy bit of an “at least for now” vibe at the end. We shall see.)
