it was amazing

It's hard to review this final book of the Blackwater saga without spoilers, so I'll just say that it did not disappoint. The plot remains consistent, a blend of mostly-ordinary family affairs and uncanny abnormalities--notably the increasingly restless brood of apparitions and river monsters. Though there was a revealing prophecy early on (Book #1 I believe), the ending still left me surprised and satisfied. I didn't realize how much I loved Blackwater until it was over and I had to return to the real world, with no more pages of Caskey history to follow.

After some reflection I'll post a review of what I thought of the complete 1000+ page saga as a single entity, which is what it really is.
