Intense final book in the “Raven Cycle”. Maggie Stiefvater writes with an amazing amount of energy, creates deep characters, and includes those fine observations of human life that the best writers have. She then turns your expectations…

I am DEVASTATED. When I put down this book I fell face first into a weeks long slump only awakened by the dreamer trilogy. So many powerful words- every page was a cliffhanger, and every paragraph had me hooked. “Is it safe?” “Safe as…

The final book of the Raven Cycle series, The Raven King, does not disappoint and is just as unique and quirky as the rest of the books. The quest for Glendower and Piper’s return has some surprising and far-reaching effects for the main…

Maggie Stiefvater’s The Raven King completes her series “The Raven Cycle”. This collection of four books follows the journey of a group of teenagers in a small Virginia town. My first thought upon picking up this book was that it was an…

The Raven King is the fourth and final book in The Raven Boys cycle and they should be read in order. Gansey and his friends are still looking for Glendower, but now things are starting to spin out of control, to literally unravel.…

I highly recommend this series! When I initially came across the Raven Cycle series, I didn’t expect it to be as amazing as it turned out. Truly an adventurous and original story, the Raven King serves as a nice end to the story of the…

My heart can't handle this. These characters, this writing (seriously, HOW MAGGIE), the whole world of the Raven Cycle gives me life and I am so nostalgic about it. This is one of my favourite series, ever, and I will never be over it.

As the conclusion to the Raven Cycle series, the Raven King had a lot to live up to and it still managed to surpass my every expectation. Often times, the end of a series falls short, but the Raven King did anything but that. This book…

I want to express how much I loved this series but I have no words for it. It is just amazing in every way

The end has finally come–Piper Greenmantle has woken a demon, and it is unmaking Cabeswater. Gansey and his friends seek to stop it, because if it succeeds, it will come after Adam and Ronan too. In this they are aided by a new friend,…

I HIGHLY recommend The Raven Cycle. If anyone manages to get their hands on the series, READ IT!!! It is full of magic, psychics, love and adventure. The conclusion is such a happy and great ending. I can't believe it's over, I'll miss…

It's a strange experience to read a fantastical and magical series such as this and still feel the overwhelming emotion of reality, as if this world is a true possibility in our own and that the boundaries of the pages no longer limit what…

I love this series, and The Raven King provides the perfect ending. It took me a while to recover from this “book hangover.” The Raven Cycle books are lush, lyrical, and wistful. The kind of magic that makes you wish magic was real. The…

interesting ending to the series. It did tend to lose momentum toward the end, but I would still recommend it

An amazing finale to an incredible series! Magic realism, psychics with a sprinkle of southern charm? Look no further. This teen book will knock your socks off!

The fourth and final book in the Raven Cycle series. Stiefvater does a good job of wrapping up almost all of her many plot and character threads. A couple of the minor ones seemed a little rushed or not completely complete, but we can hope…

I was disappointed in the ending. Everything was wrapped up, end of story. I wanted more action, a more epic ending for such a great series.

A powerful and beautiful conclusion to this series featuring psychics, ley lines, sleeping Welsh kings, and dreaming. I will miss hanging out with these characters.

A really great series that I definitely recommend. Many great elements went into this story and the character development was AWESOME. It's hard to believe that this is the same author that wrote the "Shiver" series - they are so…

A satisfying end to a good series. I was happy with the ending and the outcomes for the various characters, but more kissing! MORE KISSING!

The reader goes into The Raven King with many questions built up over the course of the series. Will Gansey really die? And stay dead? Will it be Blue’s kiss that kills him? Can they find Glendower before it is too late? And how will they…

Okay. (pause) Okay. (breath) I know the book is not perfect, but, kind of like how "Return of the King" swept all the Oscars, I just have to give it up for the whole masterful series. The Raven Cycle is my Lord of the Rings. I have…
