Review: Ascension

Ascension (Gryphon #4) by Stacey Rourke

I give this book a 5.

 

This book begins just where the 3rd one left off. Celeste and the whole clan are an absolute hot mess, but they still manage to have a few laughs. The Gryphon has been quite for the whole series, but he’s about to start answering some questions. While the Council can no longer be counted on, The Conduit and her posse will stand strong and save the day, or die trying.

There is so much going on in the story that to try to sum it up would only confuse you and do no justice to this amazing story. Let me go ahead and warn you now that friends and enemies will die in the greatest battle Celeste could have ever imagined. Characters that you thought were gone will return while others you’re hoping will stop by, are officially laid to rest.

This is the most serious and emotional book in this  series, but like I said the laughs are still there, even up to point of making movie references while charging into battle.

This book is just how this series should end. I am happy!

I recommend that if you’re interested in this book, read the other three first, but as long as you have a sense of humor, you’ll be able to find something you like about this story. If you’re anything at all like me, you’ll love it.

How does this character feel about his/her book peers?

Subject EC:GA 4-Mira:

…is still getting used to Leo, unsure of what it is he actually does.

…adores Abraham and clings to him as the father she’s never had.

…feels sorry for Giovanni and realizes that in order to help him, she needs to stop.

…is terrified of Bletsian, if he actually exists. She’s not fully convinced that he isn’t some story Giovanni tells just to scare her.
