Well done ending to this series! Lots of twists and turns along the way. While I could guess at the ending , I had no clue how it would get there! It had me enjoying every second! So many mixed thoughts and emotions whirled through me about the characters. Although I must say that when all is said and done My least favorites were Calliope (no surprise) and Walter. Ugh they both sickened me. I felt a lot fo sympathy for Kate. I have no idea what I would to in her place. And while everyone else having their own secret plans and agendas (these gods need to learn to communicate honestly and openly) it adds so many layers to this final book.

So the series ends. I didn't like this one as much because it didn't really matter who the gods were. The bulk was an angsty Calliope really. I liked that it all got wrapped up and that they didn't make it a sappy unbelievable ending. But I wanted more god powers in use and less angst.

Good overall plot and ending, but I felt like the story kinda dragged and I just wanted to get to the end.

Compared to the others, this book was somewhat of a disappointment.

Extremely disappointed in how this series ended, and how BORING this book was. The whole series was an interesting premise, although I felt like 95% of this book was Kate "checking" in on her baby, pining away for her son, and saying things like "I'm going to rip your head off when I get the chance!" to Calliope and Cronus.

I also felt like a lot of the book was "no Kate, you can't fight! It takes too long to learn how to." and he whining about wanting to DO something, but being helpless.

Felt Rhea's "defeat" of Chronus was comparable to a balloon full of air being let go - all that and what a waste. Same as her healing of Henry.

I so enjoyed the first three books, esp the first one, but this was just a terrible ending. I had a hard time making myself finish this book.

If you have not read the first books in the Goddess Series, be aware there are spoilers

Background: Last we checked Kate was taken by Calliope upon leaving to search for Rhea. We start nine months later as she is about to give birth to her son in the confines of Calliope and Cronus. The war is escalating and Cronus is almost free of his confines. The gods and goddesses are planning for war and have just realized that Kate is being held captive instead of searching.

Review: This was a wonderful ending to this series. Wow. I ran through it. OK so the plot started right where it needed to, no months of waiting for the birth of Kate's son, just immediate action. Following this there is a lot of war planning and behind the scenes scheming and so you never knew who was on what side and how they were reacting. Very fast paced compared to the other books.

I felt like Kate finally grew. I have always liked Kate, she is independent and speaks her mind when she needs to...which would normally get her into trouble. She has learned to tone this down a little but express the important info. She learned how to be more compassionate as well. In this installment, the focus of the characters was really to show sacrifice and confidence in decisions. I think a lot of the characters expanded their personalities and I learned to like a few more of the gods.

Now for a few issues, I felt there were some points left open at the end. There were still assignments given out and even the blurb at the end of the book said "And so the Goddess Test series concludes -- for now" ummmm... For Now?! will there be more? off-shoots? Novellas? I need to know !!!! But I guess that I have to wait :(

This series just got better and better.. The love triangle between Kate, Henry and Kronos.. The triangle between Kate, Henry and Calliope.. Calliopes obnoxious behavior towards Milo, who she kept calling Callum and made me wanna shout, '' HIS NAME IS MILO, you .. you cunt. ;k ''

Most of the people Í heard talking about the Goddesstest series weren't too excited about it, but I definitely will be reading the other books.

I can't wait to see what happends next.
