So I don't know how to feel about this book. Some things were wery obvius, but steel it was a good story whit a tragic end. I like how in each book we find out more and more things about the caracters and how there paths are entwined. But I do have to admit that I am scared for Alice and what will become of her.

...this book...ALL THE FEELS. It's gonna be a while before I pick up the next book.
So much happened in this book. The plot seemed to come out of nowhere with the ord. What happened with characters near the end of the book was very unexpected. There was some foreshadowing that I caught on but I was not happy to see them come true. This book reminded me how I felt about Mockingjay.
Hopefully I'll have the energy to pick up the next book. My friend is forcing me to read them. She's probably the only force making me finish these books. I hope they get better soon...

This series is the first one in a while that scared me on a level I used to seek out when I was young. I love the studiousness of all the dark beings.

Inspiring quote: 'Then why do they bother?' I asked. 'What's the point of it if they achieve nothing?'
'It's because they're human, lad. Human beings have hope. No matter how desperate things are, they convince themselves that they can change things for the better; that this time their visit will alter the outcome.'

We finally leave England in this book to make it to Mam's homeland. Exciting! Only... A lot of this book felt very hard to follow, and the introduction to the Ordeen seemed strangely rushed. I didn't much care for this book, in the grand scheme of the Wardstone Chronicles. Oh well!

The Spook and Tom protect the county. When Tom's Mam returns to the county asking for their help in Greece Tom has no way to deny her. The Spook however doesn't feel that joining forces is a good idea.
There is an old Dark Evil the Ordeen that is going to surface and Mam needs every ones help to kill her.
Bill, Alice, Tom, the Mouldheels, and other witches embark on the journey to end the Ordeen's life. At the last moment the Spook comes aboard. Together they may have to power and forces to accomplish the task before the Ordeen and the Fiend join together. Lives will be saved and lost on this journey.
