Review of the Book:The conclusion was- AWESOME! I loved the unexpected twists and turns that the author provided and I really felt that the author allowed the hero and heroine to  mature at the right time and place. They find themselves in a palatial prison and in the burial chambers of the famous Chinese terracotta army. From there its a whirlwind adventure as Phoenix tries to rescue Jade while Jade tries to find a way to end the game and go home. They face betrayal, self doubt, and failure but overcome their fears. They struggle to understand how they must defeat the evil wizard before its too late! Marcus and Brynn as always were faithful and awesome companions. Seriously would love to have Marcus as a friend in real life.The author did a great job of tying up loose ends. I know the series is over but I hope that somehow there may be a way to go back to the world that the author has created. Its brilliant, new but recognizable, and full of adventure.It is not often that I rate a book let alone a series with a 5 rating without hesitation. In this review I will discuss the series and this book. I downloaded all the series for free and my sincere thanks goes to the author for her generosity. I hope to buy the entire paperback series soon to have in my library if its ever printed.This series was extremely creative in taking a hero and heroine through personal and external struggles to grow as individuals and to save the world from evil. Having familiarity with MMORPG gaming this story I think this is a perfect fit for this generation of youth. It has the right mix of magic, fantasy, and modern day gaming that many youth, especially boys may connect with. The personal struggles over identity, loss of loved ones, and broken homes are feelings which (although I am an adult) I believe would resonate with youth and even myself. My thanks to the author for a great series. Please write more!!!I highly recommend this series and this book for both YA, children 10+ and adults as a great refreshing read.
