The Warden and the Wolf King Wingfeather Saga Andrew Peterson Joe Sutphin Books

I liked the first book. I loved the second and third books. And I had problems with this fourth book. I felt that it was overkill. Literally. I'm pretty sure that the goal of these books was to encourage and give hope and point the reader to God, and the first three books succeeded in doing so, but by the end of this very bloody book I felt discouraged, and the feeling was made stronger by the build up of hope from the three previous books. Why was it so disappointing and discouraging? A story with as much hardship, heaviness and darkness as this one (and this series in general) has needs a really good and strong catharsis at the end, and this was simply absent. Maybe the author is planning a book number 5, but that's not what it felt like. It felt raw. The death and hardship continued up to the very end, the tension was not relieved, the characters, who were given so much development during the novels, suddenly were left without dealing with what had happened, and this reader was left in the lurch. I did appreciate the how at the end a destroyed people where made new again, however.

(Spoiler alert) Okay, and a personal note as to why I particularly was discouraged by this book: As a mother of three children I identified with Nia Wingfeather as much as with any other character, and wow, to put it simply and bluntly: "Stinks to be her." She loses her home, her mom, her husband, her husband (again), her father, her other love interest and then, at the very end (during the wrap-up), she loses one of her children. Really? I finished the book literally feeling like I'd been punched in the stomach, especially because we are not privy to her internal dialogue or how she processes these losses. Well I guess it's a book aimed at 13 year old boys and maybe men too, because my husband didn't have a problem with it, but I sure did.

The Warden and the Wolf King Wingfeather Saga Andrew Peterson Joe Sutphin Books Reviews

I... honestly have no words. This series has shaped me in indescribable ways. This book was a finale of epic and profoundly supernatural proportions. I’ve never wept so much over a story. Nor have I laughed so much. My spirit soared with every victory and I was breathless with every battle and opposition that reared its face. This is, quite literally, the most spiritually profound fantasy saga I have ever read and has earned its place in rank with The Chronicles if Narnia and The Lord of The Rings. I can’t wait to see what Andrew Peterson has for us next.
Such a powerful end to a great series. This series started out slow for me. I didn't totally enjoy the first book, but my boys were obsessed, so I kept reading (aloud to them at their insistence). What I love about this series is that it kept getting better and this final book was truly the grand finale and moved us all deeply.

It was deep and meaningful without being preachy or too obvious. The times where I glimpsed the foreshadowing made me anticipate the ending that much more. This series is truly destined to become a classic and is one that I can honestly say (and this comes from a literature LOVING family) rivals and tops our enjoyment of The Chronicles of Narnia.
Truly an epic tale that decries selfishness and jealousy. Sacrifice,courage and servanthood are on display for all who wish to be blessed, thank the Maker! Great series for young and old! There is detail of character, and plenty of characters with which to relate! There are characters you can look up to and wish you were more like them. Steady and noble and long-suffering. There are plenty that have inner struggles very much like the ones common to us all. The battle scenes provided an excellent framework for anyone to interpret in their mind how things were going. A youthful reader would not fill out the story like an older reader would, and that is good. While the Wingfeathers endure hardships, loss and miserable personal failures, I found plenty of bravery, and willingness to keep going. Plenty of action, too. When a character couldn't go on, help of some sort was sent by the Maker.

Well worth the price. I wish all four books in the series were available as a set! That would be so handy. Five stars for the story, however! Read these books and give them as gifts! Read them as a family! My granddaughter and I read this book together and had many great conversations. A final shout out to the first two books on audible...they are wonderful to listen to...and wish the last two books were audible-available with the same performers! It was a fantastic job.
I could not disagree more with the reviewer who said the ending ruined it all for him/her and they couldn’t recommend it. I’m completely flummoxed by that comment, as it couldn’t have been a more beautiful and yes, painful, ending. Without giving anything away, this isn’t the kind of story that tidies everything up in a pretty bow, which is of course just like life on this earth. But this story is one in which we see the battle between good and evil, not only out there, but within our own hearts, and the glory of mercy and redemption.
Mr. Peterson, thank you for writing these books and giving my sons (6 and 7) and I an adventure we could get lost in together; for giving us language we could speak via this story that explains OUR stories and experiences when we lack our own words.
Beautifully and brilliantly written.
You really didn't leave it there?!? Lol. Wow.... I am a grandmother of two and one-on-the-way by God's amazing grace. And also a pioneer home schooler. I happened upon these books by providence and am so thrilled I did. The intent was to pre-read for family reading to my grandchildren. I fell in love on the way with all the amazing characters. I kept telling myself "you're too mature to enjoy these this much" lol. But I did. I cannot wait to share them with my precious children. Thank you, Andrew Peterson, for having such an incredible gift of writing that created such beautiful imagery capable of making me run the gamut of giggles to tears; of joy to sorrow; of peace and lastly, hope! Kudos!
