First rule of thievery: don't be a hero. When Eli broke the rules and saved the Council Kingdoms, he thought he knew the price, but resuming his place as the Shepherdess's favorite isn't as simple as bowing his head. Now that she has her darling back, Benehime is setting in motion a plan that could destroy everything she was created to protect, and even Eli's charm might not be enough to stop her. But Eli Monpress always has a plan, and with disaster rapidly approaching, he's pulling in every favor he can think of to make it work, including the grudging help of the Spirit Court's new Rector, Miranda Lyonette. But with the world in panic, the demon stirring, and the Lord of Storms back on the hunt, it's going to take more than luck and charm to pull Eli through this time. He's going to have to break a few more rules and work with some old enemies if he's going to survive.

14 of 16 people found the following review helpful. The Legend of Miranda Lyonette By M.L. Everything came full circle in this book. But in the way that makes it feel like the journey was a waste. I actually finished reading this book awhile back, but I felt conflicted about this last book in the series and wanted to wait until my feelings settled. Normally, I like to write reviews fairly soon after reading the book, while everything is fresh in my mind.The first book started off with the charismatic thief Eli Monpress who was able to do things no one should and who had a loyal crew, as morally grey as himself. Intriguing. As the books went on his main opponent Miranda, who was determined to being Eli to justice, came to the forefront. And more world building got added with each book to explain why the world worked the way it did. With the final book culminating in the main antagonist being brought down and peace restored, as expected.But the reason this book is 3 stars, instead of the 4 or 5 I'd have given the others, actually goes back to the first book. The book series is called The Legend of Eli Monpress and he was such an intriguing character in the first book. I instantly wanted to know more about him. Why the burning passion to become the greatest thief in the world with the highest bounty? How was he able to do things other wizards couldn't? Why did all the spirits listen to him so much or fawn over him? I was eager to read more books, learn more about him and see how his character would transform.However, I never felt like I got what I wanted. In the first few books I tolerated the fact that I felt we didn't get enough scenes from Eli's perspective. He was still mostly a mystery and seeing chapters from Miranda (or others) just gave us an intriguing outside perspective on him and insight into the larger world. But as we learned more about the world in general and how it was crumbling (and why), the focus continued to shift away from Eli: to follow Miranda, learn more about the other two members of Eli's crew, minor characters being given more screen time and backstory, etc.As I learned more about what was at stake in the world with each book, I kept waiting for the time when Eli would shift to the forefront and we'd see him finally embrace all the power he had and become a true leader. And surprise all of the doubters who only saw him as a flippant, petty thief who only cared about himself. But that never really happened. Miranda was more responsible for saving the world than Eli was. And if I went back through the series and counted the number of scenes from her perspective, I'd guess that her scenes would vastly outnumber Eli's.And then there's all of the questions that were raised the more we learned about the backstory that were never answered (I'm being a bit vague to try to avoid spoilers). The world was saved by essentially re-setting everything back to how it was right before book 1. So the same long term problems are still there looming. Just pushed off to some future date (b/c the way the mythology was laid out, things can't continue on the way they are indefinitely). And for a series called "The Legend of Eli Monpress" he gets shockingly little character development and plays only a small part in the ultimate resolution.A more honest series title would have been The Legend of Miranda Lyonette. But instead, I feel like I got baited with it being the story of Eli, the charming, powerful, rogue thief. Because the legend of Miranda, the goody-goody, self-righteous, Mary Sue probably doesn't have the same power to hook people in.Eli was billed as the series' protagonist, but I'm not sure why. He's not the one responsible for moving the greater conflict forward and has a minimal role in solving it. He doesn't even have the most scenes in any of the books. And at the end of book five none of his goals or motivations have changed, despite all that's happened. He's still a carefree thief travelling with his small crew, trying to earn the highest "for capture of" bounty. The series literally ends in the same place it started. And not in the way that some books do it, where the characters go through hell and through hard fought battles are able to go back to a normal life, wiser and more appreciative. This series does it in a way where you wonder how the characters can go through all that they did and still manage to not grow or change. For the most part, the world hasn't changed and neither have the characters. So what was the point?

Finished reading it in a day, as I couldn't put it down, and I wish there was more. Can't believe this series has ended. What an adventure, Eli!Like her previous books, Aaron delivers. The book is well written and fast paced. It keeps you riveted and wanting more. Additionally, the book takes time to better acquaint you with Sara and Etmon Banage and their relationship. After finding out in the last book that they were married, I wanted to know what had happened, why they had grown apart, and this book answered those questions, including questions on Sparrow, the relay points, and more. We also see Nico and Josef's relationship grow, and dare I say it, Eli and Miranda's. Since it is the last book, all questions are answered, and it was sublime to read. Loved the information on the Lord of Storms and the League. For some reason, the first time Alric was mentioned I became a fan. I wish he had been a more prominent participant in this book, but reading about him towards the end was nice too.Wonderful book, though I do wish there was another in the series. The ending did surprise me a little; I can't make up my mind if I am disappointed, or not regarding Eli and Miranda, but I don't want to give anything away.Overall, great read. I suggest the Eli Monpress series to all.
4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. 3.5 stars. A solid end to the series, but... By Cissa I liked this series more when it was capers rather than Saving The World.Since we went into Saving The World territory, though, this was a pretty good ending. The resolutions are both solid and sometimes surprising- a great combination. The characters stayed true to themselves, and major parts of the plot and the resolution were character-based.The overall cosmology was not especially addressed here, though, and I found that frustrating. Whence came the "demons"? Why are chieftan spirits called "stars", when there are not stars in the cosmos? Broadening out the scope to be World-Saving rather than capers starts asking a lot of questions that I did not feel were adequately addressed.It was an enjoyable series. However, even though #1-3 were somewhat more awkward, I did find them more satisfying than #4 & 5.Recommended only if you are reading the series.
