LitPick Review
At long last, Sabrina and Daphne find themselves coming face to face with the final battle with the Scarlet Hand. The Master's original plan of escaping the magical barrier using Granny Reldas' body failed. So now Mirror is trying to kill the whole Grimm family in order to weaken and eventually break the barrier. Along with resisting the Scarlet Hand's many attacks, Sabrina finds herself getting overwhelmed with responsibility that she wasn't expecting. Will she be able to handle all the stress of war, or will she succumb to the Master's manipulating ways? In the epic conclusion to the Sisters Grimm series, the many twists and turns will keep you in suspense, but the faithful fans of the series will be satisfied.
Opinion:
'A Council of Mirrors' was the perfect conclusion to the Sisters Grimm series. Michael Buckley is a very talented writer as he seems to paint word pictures so that you feel like you are in Ferryport Landing, fighting the Scarlet Hand with Sabrina and Daphne. At times the story was very intense and suspenseful, but the humorous fairy king, Puck, adds a bit of comedy to the book. I really enjoyed the ending, as it tied up loose ends and made the happily- ever-after feeling come to life. People of all ages will love this book, and will be satisfied by the conclusion.
