Spoilers galore. Beware.

Oh. My. Gosh. What an ending. All I can say is that The Eternity Cure was one of the best books I've read. Ever. Seriously, if you thought The Immortal Rules was good then be prepared to have your mind blown in its amazing sequel. It's really, really, really good. Don't take my word for it, just read The Eternity Cure and see for yourself.

As for that ending, I called it. Yes, I did. When Sarren took Zeke, I just knew that he would be killed then brought back to life as a vampire. I mean, he has to be a vampire. We all heard Sarren kill him through the computer. Once that part happened I had a feeling he'd be Turned to the bloodsucking side. And I don't think Kagawa would have killed off a really beloved main character so I thought that would happen. Anyway, my reaction to the ending can be pretty much be summed up as this:


I'll finish by saying that the Blood of Eden series is one of the best series I've ever read and definitely on my favorites shelf. I also think that this series could be made into great movies. Think about it, these books have all the elements a good movie can create. Like a ton of action, fighting, humor, some romance, survival of the fittest stuff, morals being tested, and of course one really kick ass heroine. Eeeee, I can't wait for The Forever Song!!!

Your Turn: What are your thoughts on this book? What did you like the best? The worst? Oh, and how about that ending!?!
