Who is Alex Carruthers? That is the question Wicked fans have been asking for nearly six years. Spellbound, the fourth and seemingly final book in the Wicked series, originally published in 2003, left readers on the edge of their seats with a classic cliffhanger ending. But now, as new fans of the bind-up editions of the series begin to ask the same question, the true and final conclusion to the Wicked series will emerge. And all their questions will be answered in this heart-stopping, magical adventure about witches, destiny, and the beyond.

Children's Literature - Jennifer Keeney
Readers, beware: one cannot fully enjoy this title without having first read the previous two novels of the "Wicked" series. There are far too many characters and previously developed story lines for a new reader to absorb. Basically, the story follows the centuries-old feud between the Deveraux warlocks and Cahors witches. Evidently the witches worship a female goddess, and the warlocks worship a horned god, and this reality makes them mortal (and immortal) enemies. There are several rather annoying love triangles within the novel, which the authors refer to as being "in thrall." There are also at least twenty main characters, which can get very confusing, especially when time travel and mysterious portals are involved. Despite being part of the science fiction genre, some of the dialogue in this novel is so melodramatic that it is downright laughable. To be fair, if you are going to begin reading the "Wicked" series, start with the first title, Witch & Curse." If you are not a fan of science fiction, do not even bother with this series. Reading it will feel like a chore. Reviewer: Jennifer Keeney

Gr 9 Up—By the time this series concludes on the 401st page of this volume, the Earth has been rent at least three times, two cats and one human have been reanimated, the Horned God and the Goddess have engaged in hand-to-hand combat, and Merlyn has been revealed as the fourth wise man. Although "Wicked" had ceased publication with the release of the fourth book, Spellbound (S & S, 2003), recent reissue as a pair of double volumes has reinvigorated its popularity. The series follows Holly and her cousins, sisters Amanda and Nicole, who discover their inherited power as witches, learn of their family's position of power among those who practice magic, and attempt to resolve a historic war between their family and a powerful clan of warlocks. Resurrection resolves the conflicts and dilemmas established in the earlier novels, albeit in a much higher fantastic mode than in the first installments. The narrative details past events that inform the characters' current situations and even allows the characters from the past and present to intermingle to dramatic effect. Readers of the original (or rereleased) novels will be interested to discover what becomes of the cousins and will find the conclusion outrageous, somewhat surprising, fantastic, and satisfying.—Amy S.
