Overview

The Great Tree of Avalon saga comes to an end as warlord Rhita Gawr, now a vengeful dragon bent on conquest, leads an army across the land-and the only thing that stands in his way is a trio of unlikely heroes.

Editorial Reviews

From Barnes & Noble
As the evil spirit warlord Rhita Gawr plots his final conquest, Avalon, the precious great tree world that connects all worlds wavers on the verge of destruction. The final volume of T. A. Barron's Great Tree of Avalon series throttles towards its exciting climax.
KLIATT
This final book in The Great Tree of Avalon series finds the friends in all kinds of difficulties. Tamwyn, Merlin's grandson and True Heir, has set off on a mission to climb the Tree of Avalon to the stars and try to relight the Wizard's Staff constellation, though he still doesn't have a clue how to do it. Priestess Elli heads for the underworld to try and destroy the Vengelano crystal, controlled by the evil sorcerer Kulwych. The rest of Tamwyn's friends try to gather allies on the Plains of Isenwy for the last battle with Rhita Gawr, who wants to control Avalon and then the rest of the universe. Friends and allies come from unexpected places, magic abounds and Good triumphs in an ending that has its bittersweet side as well. A timeline and glossary help new readers, but this book will be most appreciated by fans of the series and the Lost Years of Merlin tales. (The Great Tree of Avalon, Book III.). KLIATT Codes: JS--Recommended for junior and senior high school students. 2006, Penguin, Philomel, 377p., $19.99.. Ages 12 to 18.

From The Critics
This may have been a best-seller, but it doesn't really stand alone. It needs its previous volumes to give it some kind of continuity. When Barron talks about what has happened before, he needs to give us a lot of background, and that interferes with the flow of the story. At least it would interfere with the flow the story if he did it, but he doesn't summarize, so the story keeps going and it's very exciting, though I would have liked like to know exactly who these characters are. What is an Elven Princess doing in the darkness of the Tree's roots? And what is the little creature that she carries with her? Why does it (he? she?) seem to know so much about her? Three stories are going on at once—one underground, one on land, and one (eventually) in outer space. The latter plotline involves a flying horse that will take the hero to the stars. There he will enter the River of Time and will either light or extinguish the stars that form a pathway to other worlds—one of which happens to be our Earth. The magician Merlin has played an important role here, but apparently he can no longer leave Earth. Does it matter? If you've read the first two books, I think it might matter a lot. Without that background, these are terrific adventures with no meaning.

    It is more than I expected!!!

    I read the first edition to this trio a few years ago. Back then, however, Barron did not have the second or third in the series so I was out of luck. When I saw that they were available, I HAD to read them all. I was more than pleased when I finally finished the series. I would recommend this book to anyone and everyone. It was well worth the money to buy it. The only bad thing was that I am now done reading it. I hope that T.A. Barron comes out with more books in the series,... Especially what happens to Elli and Tamwyn and Scree and fiona!!!!!

    AMAZING!

    I absolutely loved the way that T. A. Barron concluded The Great Tree of Avalon series. It is a bittersweet ending but all in all quite satisfying. I love the way he describes things so magically and you can understand the internal conflicts of the characters. He builds off of his Lost Years of Merlin series with these fantastic books. He leaves you wanting more. My favorite book by a mile!

    I LOVE IT. It is such an awesome awesome book. I was drawn into the book from the moment I set my eyes on it. T.A. Barron is one of my favorite authors and I think he should be every bit as famous as J.K. Rowling or Harry Potter

    Phenomenal Fantasy Adventure!

    Right up there with the very best of J.R.R. Tolkien, this book (and this trilogy) has everything any fantasy reader could want. I gulped this book down instantly, and now I've started a second read. There's just so much adventure, humor, and rich meaning in this book! This is T.A. Barron's best ever -- and I can't wait to see what he comes up with next. (My vote would be a return to Avalon!)

    What a magnificent creation Mr. Barron has brought forth through his own powerful flames!

    `You know, Tamwyn, you have your own inner flames, though they cannot be seen. And the most powerful fires reside in the soul.¿ And what a magnificent creation Mr. Barron has brought forth through his own powerful flames! This book¿the third in The Great Tree of Avalon trilogy¿is incredible. The sense of place, the sensory experience, the images, the lovable characters, the quest for goodness and the reverence for nature are all superb. And I love how he gives female characters such strength and resourcefulness. As for his imagination...I don't know how to convey the awe I feel for his imagination. It seems beyond humanly possible. He makes the reader want to stretch her own imagination. Finally, I fell in love with Avalon¿s amazing characters¿they were so courageous and genuine. I sobbed when Batty Lad revealed his true identity and cried when the stars sent their sparks to the new point of radiance. `Stars all across the sky joined in each sending a tiny bit of their light.¿ That's how all of us who read and imagine want our world to be!
