​I didn’t realize book five was the end of it. Well…good. Not because it was crap, but because it’s nice when a series knows when to wrap itself up.
I didn’t love this series, to be fair, but it was fun while it lasted. Seriously.
The tale of Once & Future Kings of England tended to get a bit convoluted, but it was just so…slick. Gorgeous art by Dan Mora. Vivid colors. A fun grandma driving the bus of stock CW-esque characters. Creature effects up to wazoo.
It was one of those bombastic things I mostly forgot about from book to book but read whenever the next installation came out. Just for fun. And for the art.
And now it’s over. Wrapped up with a perfectly modern woke bow no less. I’m not going to miss it, but I appreciated our time together. There were some original ideas stunningly rendered. So yeah. Buh-bye, series. Moving on.
