This was a perfect ending for this trilogy. While I had my doubt on the first volume, I've been totally captivated by the second and this last one. The characters evolution was absolutely wonderful (even if I wanted to smack some of them in the head especially the main one sometimes) and the way their friendships grew stronger with every step wonderful. I shouted in happiness when **that kiss** happened of course, and the romance was perfectly written in respect to the two characters history. I didn't think I'd like a story centered around a sport (albeit fictional) but I was taken by surprise and really happy with it!

The cliffhanger at the end of the first volume made me want to tackle this one immediately and I wasn't deceived! Things escalated at a quick pace now that the characters were set and the story took me to new heights. The relationships between the Foxes was great with their bonds tightening and the rivalry with the Ravens was suffocating. The end of this second book made me shed a tear for Neil and I just can't wait to read the final tome

Had some troubles getting into it because there's a lot of characters and it took me some time to get to know everyone and not mix them, but once this was set up the story was really captivating. This first book is hard, by its introduction of all the characters but also by how Neil comes to be included in the Foxes team (really not pleasant). However, by the end you start to grow fond of all of them and really curious about what will happen next, so I'm really looking forward to discover more about this story in the next volumes!

Absolutely stunning, akin to the Empire Trilogy written by Raymond E. Feist & Janny Wurts, but make it gay! The amount of intrigues, court plays, war tactics and table turning was absolutely fantastic. And I adored the relationship between Laurent and Damen and never knowing exactly what Laurent was thinking or what he'll do. This is a great ending for this trilogy and an excellent trilogy overall!

Liked the first one but this second part was absolutely stunning, the intrigues went ten notch higher and the power plays were just crazy. Absolutely love how the story takes its depth and how the character evolve. And my god this ending was absolutely stunning and kept me on my nerves for the last 10% of the book.

What I needed to read to change my mind from the news. Totally gay, with a lot of intrigues and court play and an interesting universe. This first book starts quite slow and there's a lot of tension building up between the two characters but it mainly sets the world, so I'm really looking forward to things moving up more faster due to everything happening in the last part of this book!

Beautifully written and quite poetic, the story unfolds bit by bit through an exchange between the young monk and the old lady, painting a wonderful and quite unique world. Really curious about the next installments!

Started this book because it appeared on banned book lists, and what better award? I was totally surprised by the rawness of it, its description of the turmoil and cruelty of adolescence and the sadistic part of some school as well as teacher-student relationships. It reminded me a lot of the Dead Poets Society, by its settings and characters, but by including a raw violence that is mostly rampant in the Dead Poets Society. This is a great book with quite an array of character that demonstrates a brutal but quite true view of adolescence and harassment.
