I I couldn’t stop reading till I finished it right through Christmas who to think it I really love Michael Adderley and Martha Carr and Joubert are all excellent at authors as well
This is quite the experience following out Allison brownstone from when she lost her mom and started at the magical school and write up to when she was married and becoming the queen of The Drow. It’s been quite a journey and I enjoyed every minute of it thank you Michael Martha and Judith another great success

A well written saga! Totally oved it
This might be a long series, although I was brought in and totally engrossed in the story from the beginning. I loved every moment from start to finish. The characters are wonderful and the storyline totally Rocks! Alison is such a true caring, loving, surprising and ethical woman who has principles and a heart. You'll love all the escapades she goes on or dragged into. Enjoy this rollercoaster of a story!
I had an extremely hard time putting the book down. Not sure how men would would like this fantasy read, but I highly recommend.

The Alison Brownstone Saga is Spectacular!
Superbly written, every chapter of each book moves you through one highly packed adventure after another. Whether you seek new worlds to escape to, new fantastical creatures to encounter, or just like unabashed and thrilling adventures of humans, warriors, and magic users this one is sure to please! I wouldn't be surprised if a movie or tv series arises from this saga. Other engrossing books by these authors await. I'll be happily journey bound for months or years to come!

The Alison Brownstone Saga
Enjoyed reading about her magical journey from a young age through adulthood! Was easy to read and follow!
Not too many characters to get confused, either.

Never ending story
I enjoyed the different era's in main character, Alisons, life. Being half alien and half human on earth. Battled with aliens who hated humans and view versa.
Shall miss the characters.
A very long series.

I wish it had been better written and edited and that the author used a dictionary. Snickered and Smirked don't mean what she apparently thinks they mean. They're derogatory and make the characters less likable

great series
From beginning to end the 5000+ pages I read about this was great And it was hard to put down. I ended up reading it at work and staying up late instead of going to sleep.

Out of this galaxy!
The School of Nessesary Magic series and the Alican Brownstone series are epic must-reads! I can't wait to start reading the other series involving the heroes of these two tales!

But way too too violent as I got further into the series. Ok. But I won’t recommend it or read it again.

Not a bad series, but nothing really happens...

Loved the characters and the straightforward writing. The length was the reason for the 4 rating. I thought I would never finish the saga.
