Review: Best Series Finale I've ever read
Rating: 5 out of 5

I've been a fan of this series since the first book, Alexa's struggle, her strength, her love for her sister and her willfulness to risk everything to help the people she loves the most, trapped me from the start.At some point between the books it stopped being just a series I loved but something I looked forward to, something to wait for, like those WoW(Waiting on Wednesday)  posts you see around but instead of waiting to read a good book, it was more like that feeling you get when your best friend or your sister comes visit after too much time apart; Anxiety, sweaty hands , nerves and a sense of exhilaration.Alexa, Nelly and Kayden became a family of sort to me, one that I looked forward to see and now my family is gone.Their story has finally come to an end and between my cries and sobs I can honestly say, that I wouldn't want it any other way.Redemption as a series finale is in one word PERFECT!!!, there's no other way to describe it, it's just perfect.  H.D. Gordon somehow manages to make you fly as high as the moon one page and makes you beg for mercy while tearing you to shreds on the next.I was glued to these pages until the wee hours of the night, I reread the ending more times that I can count, I cried, grieved, smiled and then after everything was said and done and the last page was turned, all I could think of was "I wouldn't want it any other way"Alexa's journey was like a rollercoaster, more so in this book than another; her life and every life around her are changed, touched, in some way or another by the events in this book.Kayden sweet, sexy, powerful, lovable, one of a kind warrior; he's as always, the person/character that I would like to stand beside me in battle, cause if Kayden, the Libra, the Brocken, stands beside you; you know you are standing up for something worth fighting for. That's how Alexa feels anyway and dam was that girl right about that.Their love story, is the kind of story that transcends time and as I read the pages, I realized that their story couldn't have been better or stronger than what it is.This author is the brightest star among the Indie Authors I admire and love, her work is flawless and filled with the passion of someone that actually loves what she's doing; she wrapped up every single side story, left no unanswered questions and managed to do what every author out there wishes to do; she created the best, thought through, executed, emotionally charged Series Finale ever.Redemption is the kind of book that will be on my mind for time and time to come. Am I glad that The Alexa Montgomery Saga has come to an end???... NO!!! but... all good things have to end; as my favorite Brocken said when speaking about death:"death is inevitable for everything that lives." "But everything that has a life must lose it eventually. What matters is that it was a life worth living."Which made me wonder was this series worth reading??? YES, 1000 times yes and so, it has come to an end.I'm sad but at the same time, I'm glad that know I'll get the chance to read about new people, new lives, new worlds. I'm not sure what is instore for me; the only thing I'm sure of is that if this author writes it, is going to be another magnificent piece of art.Good bye Alexa, Kayden, Nelly...
