Summary: Beautiful but I still want more
Review: The Darkangel Trilogy is without a doubt my favourite book series of all time. The writing style, the characters and the plot ensnared me completely and lodged themselves in my mind.
This, the final novel in the trilogy was just as wonderfully crafted as the two that proceded it and yet the ending left me feeling rather unsatisfied.
It seems such a shame to me that after all she went through Aeriel is not allowed to have fully completed her task and to rest. Also I believe the issue of wether or not Irrylath truly loved her is not fully wrapped up.

Summary: This was a great book
Review: I read all three volumes. Each one was very informative and very detailed. When I read a book, it is seldom that I'll reread it. But, I reread this one. Even though the ending of the last book was depressing, it was a good way to end the story. I wish this book was a requirment for school, because if you enjoy fantasy, this book would appeal to you

Summary: What? That's It? :)
Review: The ending to the spellbinding and eautifully spun Darkangel trilogy, the end left me begging for more. There were so many things that could have happened, and so many ideas that such a blunt finish sparks. It leaves me begging for more. Aeriel completes her mission, but, as Ravenna said, loses what was most precious to her. The irony of the story was so moving; I loved and hated this last book at the same time. Why? It was an ending written so wonderfully and sadly. In my opinion, I know Aeriel must stick to her decision, but... Oh! If you want a happy ending, go somewhere else. But, it's truly a beautiful and heartbreaking end to such a masterpeice by the wonderfully talented Ms. Peirce. Is it really the end of such a wonderful tale? Say it isn't so!

Summary: Pearl of the soul of the world
Review: I loved this book. The only problem is that it dosen't seem complete. In the end Aerial finally wins Irrylath's heart but then she leaves him. It just seems that there should be a second trilogy to follow up on the story.

Summary: Love the story...although a bad ending!
Review: I just read the trilogy...in a matter of days...The story was perfect...in the first two books that is. This one seemed it wasn't written as strongly because the author just wanted to dop it...and I agree with most of the reviews...this ending bites! Poor Irrylth...is that spelled right? Ahem...I like most wanted a freaking happy ending...You know a fourth book would be cool...you know...Irrylth did say she would free Ariel from her enchantment...hey why not? His turn now! Come on! If you're the author...people want more than how that trilogy ended.....I feel like I'm writting a fanfic review...all around...cutting the ending...this book could have been better...I recomend the first two as winners!

Summary: Finally back in print but still a DISAPPOINTMENT!
Review: All I have to say is that I love this series, but this is my least favorite of the 3. The first time I read it I actually screamed "How can she do this to Aeriel, how can she do this to ME!" I was with Aeriel all throughout her journey, through every struggle, every pain, every heartbreak...how is it that she could finally win for her world & have that happen, IT'S NOT FAIR.But then again, that is life, right? Just because it is another world, another time, another person...life still is not fair. I may have read these books a millions times, I may be 26 years old now, instead of 12, but I am still very angry with Meredith Ann Pierce. I read the last book hoping that this time she'll get it right...sigh. Read it anyway or you will always wonder what happened.

Summary: does a bad core spoil the whole apple?
Review: the core of a story is the ending. when you put the book down, that's what you remember. that's how you relate to the story. I really get into the world of any book that i'm reading, and when the book has an unsatisfying ending, i get very angry and depressed. I like the happy fairy-tale, disney style ending, happily ever after but a slight bit more realistic. if the culmination of ... and two hours of time is depressing, why read it? of course that might not bother some people. if they are you, you will like this book. i loved the writing style and the characters, their complexity, their three-dimensionality. otherwise, i would give it five stars, as well as the second book in the series. I was not able to get my hands on the first book, so i read the second and third books. now, i will not be attempting to read the first book at all, or i would start bawling.

Summary: Such a sad book.
Review: I loved this series. I accidentally discovered The Darkangel and A Gathering of Gargoyles at my school library, it was a pretty old version, but I loved it. I couldn't put the books down, it was so good. I stayed up all night reading these to book only to discover that when I was done that my school library didn't have the last one. All week I would have dreams about what would happen. It was very hard to find the last book, but when I did I was so happy, I read it right away. It has the saddest, most surprising endings.

Summary: heart breaking- I cried so much
Review: This is a wonderful book and the other two are great but I found myself crying at the end. The ending is sooooo sad! It's the most tragic thing I've ever read! But don't get me wrong, It is a wonderful book and a must read! I was also very angry with Ravenna at the end of the book. It was all her fault! Well, with that said, I loved this book and it is definetly worth the money! You should read all three!

Summary: THE BEST TRILOGY!
Review: I LOVED THIS BOOK! It was sooooooo good. I was heart broken to find out that Aeriel didn't end up with the Darkangel. I actually signed on to see if Ms. Pierce has written any other books. I really want a fourth book to this trilogy. If you read this Ms. Pierce, START WRITEING! Hurry up! I highly recommend this book to anybody. From a romance fan to a Sci Fi fan. It was great all together! Get the book and start reading!
