I read all five of the Crimzon and Clover books over a two day period.  While this one wasn't my favorite (parts 1 and 4 were), this was still a satisfying conclusion.  It was interesting to see the progression of Clover's character over the course of the series.  Starting as a fairly naive young girl in the first story, she has now become a pretty powerful and formidable warrior by the end.  Even the King fears her, as she always seems to put him in his place and makes him realize that it is her (and Crimzon) that are actually the rulers of the land.  Like the previous chapter, the bulk of the action is featured at the end of the story, as Crimzon and Clover continue to fight the Kars, now aided by a mysterious and powerful "illwraith."  The illwraith proves to be a challenging foe, with powers equal to that of Crimzon and Clover.  Who will prove the victor?  You will have to read it to find out, but you probably already know.This has been a very entertaining fantasy series and I've really enjoyed the world that M.R. Mathias has created.  Through all five books, I couldn't find a single typo or editing error (which is quite common in many Amazon e-books). Good job.  I highly recommend this series of books.
