Shifter, haves everything you want in the final book of a series. Briony finally comes to her full potential, in Shifters, you see her change a lot from the first book but in a good way. I really enjoyed reading the Wicked Woods series from the first book to the last. Kailin Gow really wraps up all the question from the previous books really well in the final book. With an amazing ending that I did not see happening. It has been an honored to get and advanced reading copy of these book. . The book is definitely 5 stars and a must read. If you have not read Wicked Woods, the first book in the series, you must check it out, it is a amazing series.

This was an amazing end to this wonderful series. There was non-stop action (much more than any other in the series), and every scene was filled with heartbreaking, hold-your-breath tension. Would Kevin find a way back to Breena? Would Palisor overcome the seemingly insurmountable obstacle that they were facing? And will Fallon become human? All of these questions are answered, and I was unbelievably happy with how everything worked out in the end. Ms. Gow has written an amazing series, and I was sad to see it end. However, I know that I will reread this series many many times. The world Ms. Gow had created is so unique and original, and I applaud her for that. I'm excited to read the spin-off, because it features a personal favorite, and sounds exciting. I'm sure it will be absolutely thrilling!
