The Enchantress (The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel, #6)

#842
Title: The Enchantress (The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel, #6)
Author: Michael Scott
Publisher: Delacorte
Year: 2012
509 pages

A somewhat lackluster end to a generally successful series. Scott doesn't think through his time travel sufficiently--he's outside his genre here. The ending [isn't as strong as it could be because too many of the main characters live. And what happened to the tension about Josh's intentions from the other books in the series? I was disappointed in the unconvincing, flabby non-resolution of this important character and plot element. (hide spoiler)] It may be that there are too many people, places, and things for Scott to bring together in a satisfactory manner.
