Book Reviews of The Last Apprentice: Attack of the Fiend (The Last Apprentice)
Book Review: Fiendishly Good!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best book by far in the series. Tom Ward is coming into his own as the Spook's apprentice which is good because old Gregory seems to be fading. (In fact, Delaney hints that Tom will be heading off to do an internship with another Spook in the next book).
The mythology in these books is first rate although I think practicing witches might be disturbed with being stereotyped as haggard looking crones. In "Attack of the Fiend" three covens band together to raise the devil himself. Tom avoids being killed but now the fiend walks free. No doubt to cause more mischief in future Tales of the Last Apprentice.
And I'm looking forward to reading all of them.
Summary of The Last Apprentice: Attack of the Fiend (The Last Apprentice)
"I see your future clearly. Your master will be dead, and you will be alone. It would be better if you had never been born."
Thomas Ward is the apprentice for the local Spook, who banishes boggarts and drives away ghosts. But now a new danger is threatening Tom's world: the witches are rising and the three most powerful clans are uniting in order to conjure an unimaginable evil.
Tom and the Spook set out to stop the witches before they unleash the demon. But when Tom finds himself on his own, he wonders if he has the courage and cunning to defeat the most powerful enemy he has ever encountered.
