After arranging a hopeful but risky alliance during their visit to the Amaranthian realm, Camille, Gavin, and the resistance don't have much time to recover from their failed mission. Forced to create a new strategy to achieve their goal, they embark on a different mission-one that possibly holds the missing key to their quest for victory, and their deadliest one yet.
As they attempt round two to restore peace and freedom for their kind, they must rely on help from the living, the bayous, and beyond to decipher allies from enemies, good magic from bad, and whether the source claiming to lead the way to their destiny can be trusted. Racing against the clock to solve the mystery of their fate, they find the battle has come right to their doorstep, and this time, everyone must pay a price.
When I first read Amaranth in October 2011, I was so excited to read something so original. Rachael's trilogy is not just about your traditional vampires. Rachael's are magical and spiritual, having deep backgrounds. So when I read The Tragedy of Knowledge I was sad, because I knew it was ending. This book showed us Gavin and Camille's true relationship. I was so happy to see them finally together in The Gates, and they certainly didn't disappoint this round. The whole time I was reading I kept saying "where's Scarlet, I know she's gonna pop out sometime that crazy b&*!@." Yup, she showed up but I won't spoil it for you. Obviously there is a final battle coming with Gerard, Samira and some unexpected characters as well. I really didn't see the ending coming. Rachael has a way with leading you up to a certain point with just enough information where her story could go either way. I like that about her, she keeps me guessing. So here is the end of The Resistance Trilogy but I know that Rachael won't leave us for long, she has some more great stories coming. Enjoy :)

The Tragedy of Knowledge is the EPIC ending to the greatest series I have ever read. It is so full of action and suspense that it had me on the edge of my seat. Gavin and Cam are trying to restore peace and order to the Amaranthians. Gavin is leading the team in Amaranth and he has his hands full. They lost the first round but they are determined to win this round. As Gavin starts to set up for the final war he and Cam will have the fight of a lifetime. With the hybrid vampires on the loose no one knows exactly how to defeat them the only thing they do know is that they must be defeated.
With Cam getting these strange dreams she is not sure what they mean but she knows she better figure them out soon in order to save Amaranth from the evil that plagues it. Will they be able to take Gerard down? What will happen to Cam and Gavin? Will they have their happily ever after or will they be torn apart and lose each other? this is an Epic ending to the the trilogy and if you have not read Amaranth or The Gates you have to read both those books first to get the ending. The author did a great job taking us each step of the way and finding out all the secrets and lies of Amaranth and the others that lived there.
I am so sad to see this series end but I loved it! I loved growing with Gavin and Cam and I loved experiencing everything they did and reading how they grew together. This is a must read series for all paranormal lovers!

The Tragedy of Knowledge was intense and action packed. I have loved The Resistance Trilogy from the beginning and have followed it all the way through. The journey you are taken on with Gavin and Camille is enthralling. I have loved it every step of the way. The passion the two main characters share can only be described as intense. I am so sad to see this series come to an end as I could read and journey with these two forever. Rachael Wade is an amazing author that I will always want more from.
In The Tragedy of Knowledge, Gavin is leading the resistance team to Amaranth. Only this time they are up again the King of Amaranth, Gerard, and Arianna's father. Only no one knows how to end the reign of this Hybrid vampire.
Camille keeps getting these visions but doesn't know what they are telling her, she only knows that it has something to do with the end of Amaranth but fears it may be too late by time she is able to decipher these visions. With the help of the Book of Ancients she head in the only direction she can, following her heart and love into Amaranth. What they find there is beyond their imaginations but they know they have to try for the sake of the Amaranthians and those they hold dear, to take Gerard down.
