I have been waiting to read this book for a while, having been an avid fan of books 1 and 2 of the Island Shifters series.  Overall, I have to say that I enjoyed it very much!  While it did start off rather slow, I understand the reason why.  20 years has passed since book 2 so there was a lot of “catch up” to do and a lot of new characters (the children of the Savitars) to introduce.  Once I got past the first 60 pages, the book picked up in speed and didn’t let me go until the last line on the final page.  It was a great roller coaster ride.  I was a little sad to learn what happened to the Vypir, only because my ever curious mind was really intrigued about what (or who) the Vypir used to be, and I think it would have been a good opportunity to open up another book.  However, I think these books were meant to be a trilogy.  I do wish that not quite so much time had passed since book 2, because it was a little difficult to wrap my head around the fact that all the Savitars had gotten married, had children and they were all grown to young adults by the time the book started.  I don’t know, I just felt like it was missing something.  Overall, it was solid book, but I think I would’ve liked to see an “in-between” book after like 10 years or something before the 20 years.  I really liked this book and will definitely continue to read Zambito’s books in the future.  I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys magic!
