Jeff Wheeler's world building is excellent. This was a very satisfying conclusion to the trilogy. I want to read more set in the world of Muirwood. My thanks to the publisher who allowed me to read a early digital edition through NetGalley.

Jeff Wheeler is hands down one of the best fantasy authors out there right now. I put him right up there with my absolute favorites. That's of course one of the reasons why I keep buying his books before they even come out. It's rare to find a writer whose ability you trust enough to know without worry or doubt that you will enjoy enough to purchase them before you even see what it's about. I have done that with this author, and I have not been disappointed.

For readers who aren't familiar with the writer or the series, this is the last book in a second Muirwood series and brings some of the original characters back into play in a new plot and timeline. The Muirwood books, maybe more than any of Wheeler's other books (for me anyway), bring together a blend of spirituality and magic that I just adore. This second series blended some of the more recent style of writing and incorporated it into the feel of the original books, which allowed it to have its own unique tone and plot while still bringing in the best aspects of the original series.

What I absolutely loved about The Void of Muirwood is what I'm coming to love about all of Wheeler's series final books, which is his unique ability to wrap up all the loose ends and every tiny sub-plot thread that may have been hanging. I love that nothing is unimportant. Every facet gets the attention it deserves, and this gives the book a richness and depth that only the best writers achieve. If you love falling into a book and having to stay up until 4:00 in the morning the next day to read the whole thing, this is a winner. There's tons of action and tension in this book, lots of twist and turns, and plenty of subterfuge. If I had to be at all critical (and it's tough, but I like to find at least a little something), it's that there was so much conflict I actually started to feel upset for the characters having to go through it all. As if some of the bad guys were doing things for the mere sake of being jerks rather than to only follow their agenda. That being said, so much conflict also makes for excellent and realistic "bad guys" and some good surprises. I hate when I can predict everything that will happen, so I enjoy when I can be surprised.

So this book gets a solid 5 stars from me. I would (and have) recommend it to friends who like this style, and will definitely continue to read everything Wheeler writes. It was bittersweet to see the end of another Muirwood series, since they are my favorite of all his stories, but hopefully if I follow him long enough he'll write more of them.

Really enjoyed this series would recommend if you like fantasy series
