I’m so sad for this series to be over, there are however two spin off series in this world. I’ll definitely have to check them out. This was an excellent book/series, that kept me rooted to these books. I couldn’t wait to find out what would happen next. There was tons of action, four ArkAngels, love, heart wrenching loss, fun times, sinister plots, learning lot’s of training, everything possible for a great series of books.
This is one of the best series I’ve read in a while. I mentioned in one of my reviews, that I thought this was my first time reading anything by this Author. However it seemed like a familiar style. So looked back and no this is definitely not my first time reading Leia Stones books and looking back, I have loved everything I’ve read by her. Definitely an Author to keep in mind when looking for something great to read and knowing it’ll be great.

I always try not to give anything away about the books I read, so reviewing sometimes gets hard. It’s also hard getting across the passion I felt while reading this series. All I can say is I loved it, love, love ,loved it. If you read it I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Mon avis en français

My English review

Voilà la conclusion de la saga et j’étais curieuse de voir comment l’auteure allait terminer la série. Je peux vous dire que j’ai passé un bon moment !

Brielle se prépare à la confrontation finale. Ce n’est pas simple. Elle ne sait pas si elle va réussir, mais elle n’a pas le choix. La pression est forte, parce qu’elle seule peut réussir à tuer Lucifer et tout le monde s’attend à ce qu’elle parvienne à ses fins. Pourtant, tout reste très compliqué et elle va devoir s’entraîner pour avoir une chance.

Ce dernier tome était bien sympa. J’étais contente d’avoir suivi Brielle et ses amis jusqu’au bout. Je serai ravie de découvrir d’autres romans de l’auteure.

I loved this book. It was a great end to the series. The bonus is that there was a note from the author, at the end of the book, that said she would be writing two spin off series'.

Fallen Academy: Year Four gave me all the feels. It had me all stressed out at times, emotional other times, and giddy happy other times. My emotions went through the wringer.

One of my favorite things was that Brielle and Lincoln were married in this book and it was so cute to see them as husband and wife. I also loved that the 4 archangels were more directly involved in things that they had tried to stay back from in previous books. I also really loved getting to know Emberly and am looking forward to her being the focus of a spin off series. I love all of these characters and am sad to see the series end.

I highly recommend these books. They were really fun and captivating.

Audible: The narrator was great. She was really believable as the main character and had good voices for the other characters. Her tone, inflections, and emotion matched exactly what was happening at the time. I recommend this as an audiobook.

Ein Finale ohne Überraschungen

Enthält Spoiler zu den Vorgängern!

Der letzte Kampf steht kurz bevor und Luzifer schickt noch mehr Dämonen als je zuvor. Brielle trainiert mit den Engeln, kämpft zusammen mit ihren Freunden und ihrem Ehemann und vermisst ihr Schwert. Und nicht nur Brielle feilt an ihren Fähigkeiten, bevor sie sich dem Teufel persönlich entgegen stellen muss.

Es ist wieder sehr viel los und man rast schnell durch die Ereignisse, weil Brielle alle ihre Probleme ja auch immer schnell lösen kann. Auch wenn die Gefahr größer ist als je zuvor, wird man noch oft von unwichtigen kleinen Nebenhandlungen abgelenkt, weil Brielle so viele Freundschaften geschlossen hat, die alle nochmal Erwähnung finden müssen, und es kommen auch noch neue dazu. Dabei werden auch noch neue Fähigkeiten entdeckt und neue Lösungen tun sich auf, wenn man sie gerade braucht.

Das nimmt so ziemlich jeder Situation die Bedrohlichkeit, aber die Handlung ist sowieso ziemlich oberflächlich. Man kann dieses Buch sehr leicht mit den anderen Büchern der Reihe vergleichen, denn es ist die gleiche Formel und daher gibt es auch keine Überraschungen mehr. Wer erwartet, dass es nun wirklich ernster wird, oder noch auf eine Steigerung hofft, der wird eher enttäuscht werden, aber wer die Vorgänger so mochte wie sie waren, wird das Finale von Brielles Abenteuer wohl auch wieder mögen.

Wie sehr habe ich mich auf diesen Abschlussband gefreut. Über ein Jahr ist es her, dass Band 3 erschienen ist und ich wusste nicht einfach kaum was damals passiert ist. Daher war es die ersten Seiten ein reines Herantasten. Ich hatte leider zu viel vergessen und auch jetzt nach dem Beenden kann ich mich an den dritten am wenigsten erinnern. Ich werde die Serie einfach nochmal lesen müssen, aber dieses Mal in einem Rutsch. Es war trotzdem schön wieder mit den üblichen Verdächtigen dieses Abenteuer zu erleben. Es war mit seinem knappen 270 Seiten wieder so schnell durchgelesen, dass hat mich schon ein bisschen traurig gemacht. Dennoch mag ich diese Reihe total gerne und ich freue mich auf weitere Geschichten von dieser Autorin.

Sera, the talking dagger, will always be my favorite thing about this series and her comments make everything funnier!

The ending kinda ruined it for me tbh but I can't properly rant about it without spoiling anyone 😭

Good ending and final book

This was a great way to end this series. I cried a little when Brielle was reunited with Sera. I had missed her too. I enjoyed the final battles and the way everything came together. Brielle is an awesome character and I enjoyed reading her story.

Congratulations to the author. This was truly well done. I really struggled with the previous 2 books, but this one brought back my love of the first book. If you read it, I know you’ll like it too. Happy reading y’all.

So so good

I absolutely love this series. And this is the perfect ending to it. Still nonstop action, but so much drama and chemistry with the characters it’s just about perfect.

It was fine, but lost interest. Not sure if there is another book but the story line is dragging out without dragging me in. I'm ok not continuing on any further with these characters or this story

Love the whole series

I honestly haven't been wrapped up in a series in so long. It's beautifully written and it pulls at your heart strings. I am even thinking of buying the series it was that good! So sad that it ended but Lincoln and Brielle will always be one of my favorite couples along with Shea and Noah!

I absolutely love this word. I love Brielle and Lincoln so much. There was so much action going on in the final installment. I absolutely loved it. It was such a great ending to this series. I truly hope that one day there will be a follow up to this series.
I thoroughly enjoyed the narrator. She was the perfect voice for Brielle and her trusty Sera.

Das Cover sieht mal wieder unglaublich schön aus und zusammen sehen die Bücher auch wirklich toll aus. Es passt auch wieder gut zur Geschichte - ich mag es also.

Auch der Schreibstil von Leia Stone war mal wieder flüssig, sehr leicht zu lesen und unterhaltsam. Ich muss zugeben, dass ich teilweise etwas aus den vorherigen Teilen vergessen hatte, aber das war nicht besonders schlimm oder hat mich beim Lesen gestört. In die Geschichte bin ich sogar relativ leicht wieder reingekommen. Es bleibt auch in diesem Teil wieder spannend und man fliegt nur so durch die Kapitel und plötzlich ist man auch schon fertig. Stellenweise ging es mir persönlich dann doch etwas zu schnell und zu einfach.

Bei den Charakteren kann ich wenig verraten, aber man trifft neben den schon bekannten Charakteren noch auf die ein oder anderen Personen aus der Vergangenheit. Einige Beziehungen festigen sich und die Freundschaften bleiben zum Glück erhalten. Die Protagonistin lernt wieder alles Mögliche schnell und einfach, das war allerdings in den vorherigen Büchern der Reihe auch so. Wen das nicht stört, dem werden die Charaktere auch in diesem Teil gefallen.

Insgesamt also ein netter und unterhaltsamer Abschluss einer Reihe, die sich wirklich schnell und leicht lesen lässt. Mir persönlich war es eben stellenweise doch zu schnell wieder vorbei und manche Situationen wurden mir zu leicht gelöst. Den Schreibstil von der Autorin finde ich unterhaltsam und schön locker, weshalb ich bestimmt noch weitere Bücher von ihr lesen werde.

OHMYGOODNESS!!!

I feel like I just finished a quick marathon! I am so satisfied with this series!

I can't even go about this in detail because I feel like if I started typing more about it, I will put out so many spoilers.

All I want to say is that if you want to read about angels and demons. Their fight, but in quite a twisted way, THIS ONE IS FOR YOU. If you want action, action, more action, this one is FOR YOU. If you want romance, loyalty, and friendship (OF THE STRONGEST KIND), this one, THISSSS OONEEE IS DEFINITELY FOR YOU!!!!


Read the series now!

2,7⭐️ Das Buch hat mir gut gefallen, aber nicht so gut wie die ersten drei Teile. Die ersten 150 Seiten bestanden aus Wiederholung und belanglosen Dingen um die Seiten zu füllen. Als es dann zu dem großen Finale der Reihe kam, war ich etwas perplex da es so schnell vorbei ging und unspektakulär war. Der Schreibstil war sehr einfach zu lesen, kam mir in diesem Teil allerdings fühlte es sich auch mehr nach Kinderbuch an . Alles in allem ganz nett und unterhaltend, aber nicht so spannend und mitreißend wie erhofft.

Das große Finale
Nachdem Brielle ja nun einiges durchgemacht hat, kann sie sich letztendlich sogar gegen Erzengel durchsetzen und ihre Gedanken besser kontrollieren.
Leider ist das Ende sehr seicht und eher langweilig. Der Epilog ist dagegen wieder sehr unterhaltsam. Zudem bleiben einiges an Fragen offen, evtl. hat man sich hier ein Schlupfloch für weitere Bücher gelassen.
Mir hat es gut gefallen und es hat mich gut unterhalten. Das Wiedersehen mit 2 tollen Charakteren war auch wunderschön, vom Hocker hat es mich letztendlich jedoch nicht.

Visszavonok minden rosszat amit a sorozatról mondtam, mert ez a rész feltette az i-re azt a bizonyos pontot!❤️
A story nagyon összejött a végére, mindent és mindenkit imádtam a végén (főleg Serat és Michaelt😂❤️) és 'annnnyira' jó érzés hogy, nem utáltam meg a sorozatot ez után!❤️❤️
A 3,5 részt még egy kicsi pihenőpályára teszem hogy, megemésszem az itt történteket de Lincoln szemszögére is nagyon kíváncsi vagyok!

A predictable yet wholesome finish to the series. I’d definitely recommend for anyone who is wanting to read something that takes little to no brain power to follow the plot.

So I literally just finished this book and the only steady words coming to mind is holy damn that was incredible! Unfortunately for me those words just don't feel sufficient enough. In all honesty I don't think there is any word or words that can fully portray the epicness of this book/series.

This book perfectly completes the Fallen Academy series in a bang of intensity. No kidding this book knows not the meaning of bored. It's go, go, go right up til the second last chapter. Then the last chapter you just die of happiness. Don't worry no spoilers here. ;)

Are you ready fall more in love with the characters of this series even more? You didn't think that was possible did you? Bump barm wrong! It so is. I was thinking along the same lines too but then you get sucked right back in and see different things happen that just draw you in closer that just make you love them more.

The only thing that had me slightly disappointed (if that's even the right word), was the loss of seeing more of Lincoln's mates (Noah, Blake & Darren) that you get to know throughout the series; like you know they are out there fighting as the wars picking up but I did miss them. The other being I missed was Sera, I was literally so close to shouting for joy when Brie and her were reunited. I just absolutely loved the spunky, sarcastic character Leia created for her weapon. You almost at times forgot she wasn't actually a person she just had soo much voice if that makes sense. I think she would have to be up there in my favourite list for characters. She always made me laugh without a doubt.

Here let's have a small taste of our Sera, yeah?

"'I say you drop the shield, and let me give his scrotum a piece of my mind,' Sera suggested.
Opening my mind to my soul weapon, I pushed all of my recent training and thoughts at her. She’d always been my number one battle strategist, and I wanted her to know all I had learned without having to explain it all, because there was no time.
‘Ohhh,’ she cooed. ‘You trained with Michael? How is he? I miss the way he smells.’
‘Can we focus on the Devil for now?’ I asked her."


Be prepared for the epic throw-down of Lucy and Brielle and to pull up your big girl panties as this is no easy ride. It'll take you on a journey of a million emotions that will have you snickering, crying, loving harder then you thought possible and out right panic attacks you name it, it'll be there. There was so many times that I just wanted to pull the covers over my head or just sitting there staring at the book hyperventilating. Other times I took the advice I'm giving you now of pulling up my big girl pants and reading at speeds that should be illegal to just find out what was happening. I found it soooo freaking hard to put this book down. The only thing that managed to completeley captivate my attention when the book was put aside was my new little gorgeous nephew. Believe me guys this book is chocked full of nail-biting, gut wrenching power punches that will leave you gasping for breath and needing more. You can't honestly get enough of this book.

Experience the Fallen Academy's thrilling suspenseful finale for yourself. You won't regret it.

With all hell breaking loose is Brie and her friends ready to take on Lucy himself? Hell yes! #lucysgoingdown

Looking forward to reading further spin-offs to this series coz just these 4 books is just not enough.

Thank you to the amazing Leia Stone for allowing me the honour of reading this incredible series. You should be more then proud of yourself for the accomplishment of a story this fantastic! Thank you so much for the incredible journey you took me on. :D

Happy Readings Nerdy Friends

I tried to finish this book, but I just couldn't make it. I got to 64% and just couldn't take it anymore. I've read the other books in the series, and while weak, I could finish them. I spent the bulk of my time skimming the pages and rarely slowed down to actually read. The plot is jerky and had an overall rushed feeling to it. None of the characters are really developed outside of their cliched stereotype; they're not fully realized personalities, they're shadow puppets on the wall

The main character is weak, whiny, and her abilities are poorly defined. Her dialog is cliched and wooden. Hell, all of the characters dialog is cliched and wooden.

The archangels are completely worthless. They're weak and nothing more than high school gym teachers. They're losing a war and balk at the idea of humans fighting demons along side the Fallen and actively stop them from fighting "to protect them." What? What would give them the right to determine such a thing. What makes it even more ridiculous is they make a big deal over "free will" with respect to Brielle's impending choice.

Then there's the "girl power" push. In the beginning, Michael's wife challenges one of the other archangels for the right to create a human Demon Hunter Academy. She beats him handily. Sorry, no. A human shouldn't be able to whoop an Archangel's ass. At one point, one of the characters even says the words "girl power."

Stop with this crap already.

The conclusion was ah-mazing!! So much happened in this and Ms. Stone totally rocked this whole series! Bri was such a fiercely protective girl who absolutely had a heart of pure gold. I totally felt for Lincoln in this because he was so anxious about Bri and had a hard time letting her be who she was destined to be. But... he had her back no matter what. I'm so glad to see all of the archangels back to mentor. They were written so entertainingly and with such human traits. I'm sad to see this series end, but excited to see just what Leia Stone has planned for us next! She's for sure a one click author who knows how to bring both the drama and the joy 💕💕💕
