The Final Five

Diana Hawthorne Supernatural Mystery #0.5

by Carissa Andrews

A witch, an angel, and an oracle. Three souls with one destiny: Find the Final Five.

I don’t know why I thought finding the final five protectors was going to be easy. Wishful thinking, I suppose.

As it turns out, it’s going to take more than I ever thought possible.

Not only do we need an oracle with some kickass gifts, but we have to work with her requests to even get her on board.

If this doesn’t work – well, let’s just say, nothing else will matter.

The darkness is coming for us all.

Intriguing Start

This short novel quickly plunges the reader into a very different world. A trip to search for answers provides everyone more than they are ready to accept. This may be the beginning of the end.

For obvious reasons (as always), I have read this book.

From the author perspective, The Final Five was a fun novelette to write in order to tie both the worlds of Oracle and Awakening together. I enjoyed the writing the side-story tangent and prequel to technically both of those books. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did writing it!

An absolutely fantastic short that leaves you wanting more! Highly Recommended 5/5

The Final Five connects two worlds together and shows how they all came to know each other and how it all began. The Final Five connects the Oracle and Awakening. It gives us more insight into some of the characters from both worlds. It shows the connection between Diana in Oracle and Morgan and Gabe from Awakening.

In The Final Five Morgan is searching for The Final Five and needs an Oracle’s help in locating them. But first she must come up with a plan to locate this Oracle. Finding this Oracle could prove very difficult. Can Morgan find this Oracle before it is too late? If she does how much will it cost her? How far is she willing to go to save humanity?

The Final Five is a short read that can be read in one sitting. The Final Five is very enchanting and enlightening experience with the joining of two worlds and their characters as well. I read Morgan and Gabe’s story from the Awakening in November 2019 and enjoyed it tremendously. Now I can’t wait to dive into the next book Oracle to find out more about Diana and her story.

I highly recommend The Final Five to all fans of angels and witches but I do however suggest that you start your journey with The Final Five first unlike me but hey no big deal if you don’t as long as you do read the
8th Dimension Novels right?

This is a must read prequel to "Oracle" and "Awaking" and having read both "The Final Five" definitely ties some ends together. I actually find it helped me to understand Diana and what she's up against in Oracle. It's a good short read that fills in a few blanks and it introduces Morgan and Gabe from Awakening. Do yourself a favor and pick this one up first.

Excellent prequel to Oracle!

Oracle being such a fantastic novel, I was excited to read this one. It was just as great as I expected. I love this author, and yet again, here's another great novel. Combining the metaphysical nd angelic worlds, it's a great read for those of us looking at life now as potentially apocalyptic. Highly recommended!!

Glad I found this!

Having already read next book I found this one. Cool backstory to round out the other story. Interesting points on expectations versus what happens.

Great book

Loved it! Great setup for the coming books! Can’t wait to read on and get to know the characters more in depth.

[Charlotte · Rating 4 out of 5]

This little story is interesting. This gives just enough information about Diana to make me want to know more. I think this will be a great series!

[Aletia · Rating 5 out of 5]

what is going to happen?!

I fully enjoyed this novella and am looking forward to reading the series' that this collection of characters star in! Oracle will be next for me. And then, Awakening.

[T. · Rating 4 out of 5]

This short story gives you some information about the two separate series and a glimpse into their world. It makes you wonder about what new characters you will meet. And will it be on the darker side or more fun? I will read both series.

[Astrid Rudloff · Rating 4 out of 5]

This novel is really interesting, but leaves many questions open. I guess I should read Oracle and Awakening.

A teaser of a short story

The beginning of Diana's journey. A hint of her snark and personality and a brief flash of what is set to unfold in her story.

[Vicky Coughlan · Rating 2 out of 5]

My pet peeve: cliffhangers! Oh how I hate them. So… 2 stars for this very short and confusing and disappointing prequel.

[Liza · Rating 3 out of 5]

The book is listed as a prequel but it felt like there had been a story before this one. [Found out this prequel was published after book 1.]

Good story anyway.
