A great ending to a great series. I was kind of hoping for a HP-style epilogue, but in the end I was glad to make up my own. ( )

A heart-wrenching, but satisfying, end to the Underland Chronicles. Filled with messages of hope and doing what's right, even if some ancient quasi-religious text says otherwise. This series teaches that war is never the answer and just because someone looks different than you, that they are not the enemy. ( )

i really like her point and what she's saying in these books, and she does it in such a way - full of adventure - to hold the attention of young readers. it's really well done. this one had way too much death and violence (which has been increasing throughout the series) for me. he was sticky with blood or covered in blood, or walking knee deep through bodies too many times. true, there was a war, but it was over the top. still, though, her commentary on fighting and on politics and right and wrong and even on things like self fulfilling prophecies are all really interesting and well done. this is a great series and i'll miss these characters now that we're done.

Wonderful ending to the Gregor story. The characters in this tale are so charming it's hard not to love them. ( )

Epigraph
Dedication
For Kathy, Drew, and Joanie
First words
Gregor's back pressed into the cold stone floor as he stared up at the words on the ceiling.
Quotations
Gregor sat on a bench.  He had walked a lot today and all of his injuries were hurting.  Seeing the news had made him think.  He was safe for the moment, here in the playground, but people all over the world were suffering, starving, fleeing, killing one another as they waged their wars.  How much energy they put into harming one another.  How little into saving.  Would it ever change?  What would it take to make it change?  He thought of Luxa's hand pressed into Ripred's paw.  That's what it would take.  People rejecting war.  Not one or two, but all of them.  Saying it was an unacceptable way to solve their differences.  By the look of things, the human race had a lot of evolving to do before that happened.  Maybe it was impossible.  But maybe it wasn't.  Like Vikus said, nothing would happen unless you hoped it could.  If you had hope, maybe you could find the way to make things change.  Because if you thought about it, there were so many reasons to try.
