Review Summary: Pendragon's Last Stand
Date: 2008-09-13
Details: After Pilgrims of Raine I was very excited when I heard that another book was coming out. Raven Rise really delivered. The characters were dramatic yet comical. I normally don't like first-person point of view stories, but this is the exception.
The story starts after Bobby trapped himself and demonic Saint Dane on the tropical Ibara, yet it seems that his sacrifice was pointless for the Convergence has already taken place.
On Third Earth, Patrick wakes up to a dystopian future Earth. He meets up with Mark and Courtney in 1930 and they go to Second Earth to try and stop Saint Dane's plans.
Nevva is disguised as Tello (trying to get Bobby to fall in love with her; no luck) and lets a few minor details slip. Bobby then finds out that Saint Dane has escaped Ibara, and goes after his to his home territory Second Earth.
A cult leader named Alexander Naymeer (an English idealist, brainwashed by Saint Dane) is creating chaos with Ravina (the name of the cult). Bobby, Alder, Mark, and Courtney try to avoid the Ravinans while looking for the leader of the rebellion. In a giant battle known as the Bronx Massacre almost half the characters die or at least seem to be dead (leaving clinchers for the next book), and Saint Dane seems to have won. Yet the ending gives readers hope for Bobby and the travelers, but I won't give to much away for the ending is very shocking.

Details: Great book, a must read. I did not put it down until I was done. Can't wait for the final book.
Review Summary: AMAZING!!!
Date: 2008-08-14
Details: This book is amazing! It has suspense and lots of action. In my opinion this is the best book of the series so far. Bobby Pendragon has grown up and is totally different from the 14 year old in book one.
