About this deal

In this trilogy and her last, Chronicles of the One, Nora has made a radical departure from the cozy and comfortable storytelling I fell in love with as a teen. Ninety-one percent of the people rated their reading experience on Goodreads rated it either a 4 or 5 (mostly a 5). Going back and forth between the human and fae realms, Breen learns all about her family, blood, and mysterious past.

It's Keegan who's at her side when the enemy's witches, traitorous and power-mad, appear to her in her sleep, practicing black magick, sacrificing the innocent, and plotting a brutal destruction for Breen. I did feel like the climax - which we have been heading towards for three books - was a bit "anti climactic" and the ending felt unbelievably rushed.The story also shifts perspective so you can see how Odran and his followers are preparing to defeat Breen and the rest. I found this pretty disappointing, but as I was deeply invested in the rest of the story, I gave it a pass. It’s a community that feels more like a family, and there are many wonderful relationships explored as the characters work, fight, celebrate, and mourn together. This trilogy, and the one published before it, are stories that I would have no qualms recommending to fantasy fans who have never had much interest in Nora’s work. The reader could read between the lines and see the hidden actions that indicated the love, but there was definitely no sweeping romance.

It's also a time for celebrations--of her first Christmas in both Talamh and Ireland, of solstice and weddings and births--and daring to find joy again in the wake of sorrow. Even at the very end, when things are wrapping up, I appreciated how Nora wrote it but still didn’t feel anything regarding that central romance. Soon the enemy's witches begin to appear to Breen in her sleep, practicing black magick, sacrificing the innocent, and plotting brutal destruction. There are enough characters we love in this trilogy that there needs to be a short story that follows up on the end for the rest of the major characters.

Of course, there’s a ton of intrigue and suspense and Breen, Keegan, and the others prepare for Odran’s eventual attack. If you're after the perfect pick-me-up, take-me-away-from-the-world read, then she's your woman'The GuardianIt's time for the final reckoning. The climax is so short and over so fast it was completely unsatisfying, much like Breen’s sex life, and this book in general.

We work closely with publishers and authors to ensure that we offer the best books on the market for your child. With less meandering banter and romance between characters and a faster pace, the same story could have been accomplished in a single book and I would have absolutely loved it. And soon, united with him and with all of Talamh, she will seek out those in desperate need of rescue, and confront the darkness with every weapon she has: her sword, her magicks--and her courage. This is a tight-knit community that embraces Breen and Marcus, and the deep connection, loyalty, and love they all have for each other are really special. This was the last book in the Dragon Heart Trilogy and while I liked it, it wasn't my favorite book of the series.It isn’t a standalone, so you have read the first two books to follow this one, but if you like amazing world-building, dynamic characters and relationships, unique fantasy elements, and entertaining storytelling that will make you laugh and cry, then I would definitely recommend the series.

At Books2Door, we believe that reading is a fundamental skill that every child should have to help improve their vocabulary, grammar, and critical thinking skills. To me, it felt like the Epilogue should have been Chapter 31 and the real Epilogue could have given us a broader view of life in the "after".The Choice by Nora Roberts is the conclusion to The Dragon Heart Legacy trilogy that began with The Awakening in 2020 and continued with The Becoming in 2021.
