If possible, I would have put a 4.9 only because I thought there were some loose ends that weren't copleted at the end, though I have a feeling that I probably just missed something in the speed read that I did. (I read it in about five to six hours the day I got it, no break but supper and a little laundry) So it probably should get a five. This, however, had to be one of my favorite lines. Just the lines, no descriptions. Spoiler: click to toggle

I actually greatly liked Isle of Fire, as I knew I would. In some cases, I think that Isle of Swords was slightly better than Isle of Fire, and then other times I thought that Isle of Fire was better than Isle of Swords. Really for me they're nearly evenly matched. This was a great sequal to Isle of Swords and absolutely did not let me down. Spoiler: click to toggle

He he, I just realized while slowly re-reading Isle of Fire, that I read something too fast in Isle of Swords and that thing actually helped me guess part of the ending. I have to say that IoF has one of the most satisfying endings I've read in a really long time. |

1.<>< I will never deny my King ><> 2.There are passages and doors and realms that lie unseen. There are roads both wide and narrow and no avenue between. Doors remain closed for those who in sad vanity yet hide. Yet when belief is chosen, the key appears inside. What is lived now will soon pass, and what is not will come to be. The Door Within must open, for those to truly see. Do you see? Believe and enter. 3.Ye have come to Falon's Stair, but enter not ye unaware, for better men than thee have fled. They that entered soon were dead. The darkness spins your mind with fright, as you descend into her night. Beyond the steps the labyrinth waits, with dangers untold and treasures great. Know ye this as ye travel the maze: lest ye fall under Falon's gaze, there is one path alone to the light of day. And death will come if ye lose your way. 4. Isaiah 6:8 - Then I heared the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?" Then I said, "Here am I. Send Me!" 1, 2, and 3 were quotes from the Door Within- by Wayne Thomas Batson | |

I just finished IoF and loved it! I thought there might have been a some holes between scenes but I probably just missed some things. But wow, the suspense throughout the book is intense! Spoiler: click to toggle
