My favorite book in the series by far! It never fails to move me, and it's wonderful to finally get a respite from all those tense scenes that have been slamming you since book one! If you enjoy action this is the series for you because you never get a break.

I hope there is another book, but if there isn't, this was a great ending. I had no problems with the whole Christianity part, but I am a Christian too, which may be why. It did drag a little, but it was over soon enough, so it wasn't something for people to complian about. I loved the begining with the map of Atlantis, and the chase through Atlantis, that was pretty cool. This book got me really into it from the first page, and I could not put it down, I finished it within a day. This was a really good book, it explained everything, and the interview at the end explained some interesting things too. Overall I enjoyed reading the DreamHouse Kings and hope there will be another one!

An OK end to the series. It all ran rather slow (the entire series takes place over eight days), but I was expecting a bit more....OOMPH for the finale. Overall a good series and this book stayed true to the whole. A bit of a deus ex machina, but it's a book about time travel so I'll give it a pass. Enjoyable.

This was a decent conclusion to the series, but I was a little dissatisfied by how potentially not-final the resolution at the end was. It also got a little to Christian-Fiction-y for my taste.

Overall, an entertaining action-packed YA series about time travel. Easy and readable, unlike some YA series.

I got the first book of this series as a Kindle freebie and read it in a day or so. I really liked it so I had my little brother read it. He also liked it so we ended up buying the rest of the series, which was really good.
This series is one of the few Christian fantasy series I’ve seen that is original. Even the time travel seems original. The characters are interesting and fun to read about and so is the house.
I would advise against parents reading these books to younger children since there is a fair amount of violence and creepiness. Overall, this is a great series for young adults. A word of warning: don’t read these books if it’s late at night since they are very hard to put down and you’ll probably be up past midnight reading them.

OK, I finished the series last night. Now, it is true that I have had more time to read as my dog is keeping me up BUT I really did lover this series. It is a very fast read. Each story is definitely a cliffhanger so I am glad I waited until all were out because this would have been very annoying to read slowly as each story really seems to end abruptly. I thought the story went in interesting directions and didn't end with a classic happily ever after everything is perfect now which I also liked.
