God, please look after Adriel. Keep him safe and keep him from acting foolish. And please help him to be able to find me.
Rae knew she could trust God to look after both of them. It was all she had now.
The Time Captives have been reunited. The rightful king has been freed. Now all that remains is to defeat the strytes who still hold a tyrannical rule over the people of Calhortz. But with their lack of soldiers, it’s a task that is easier said than done. They need allies, but are they worth it when it requires facing ghosts from their pasts?
Returning to his home country only brings the loss of Adriel’s family to the forefront of his mind. His determination to find Rae has never ceased, but now that determination could potentially destroy all that he and the Time Captives have been working towards. And his new-found faith may not be able to withstand the challenge.
Will they be able to set aside their personal struggles for the sake of the freedom of all or will they allow their pasts to consume them? Will they manage to win back Crannig Castle from the rule of the strytes? The fate of Calhortz hangs in the balance.
Crannig Castle is the final book of the Time Captives trilogy, a tale of faith, family, fantasy, and a fight for truth and freedom.
I really enjoyed the first two books in the Time Captives trilogy. They were imaginative, Narnia-esque, and overall a joy to read. Crannig Castle, however, wasn't my favorite in the trilogy.
What I Liked. I enjoyed returning to the epic battle against the strytes. Morgan created such a fascinating world with such intricate characters. I loved getting so see how everything turned out.
What I Didn't Like as Much. I really tried to get into this book, but I just couldn't for some reason. I think maybe the pacing was too fast. Also, I didn't really like the ending. The entire conflict with the strytes seemed to wrap up too easily. *shrugs* I just liked the other books a lot better.
Overall, I highly recommend the entire series, even though the third isn't my favorite. If you haven't read any of the Time Captives books, please do!

The laaaast book...*dies laughing* Sorry, Ice Age joke, but it is the last book!
ReplyDeleteI actually don't like Ice Age...so I don't get it. LOL. Oops.
DeleteThis looks like a fascinating book. =) Was there anything you disliked other than the pace and ending of the story?
ReplyDeleteI was confused at first because I read the other two about a year ago, but other than that, there wasn't anything I disliked.
DeleteThanks for the review, Alea!
