I highly recommend this series to any "Vampire Academy" fan. 
 It will help you after you read "Last Sacrifice", with your mourning for finishing the series. 
 (It doesn't include alot about the original characters but still...) 
 This Series was alot better than I expected and I'm kinda mad at myself that I didn't start it as sooner. 
 It by no comparison was as good as "Vampire Academy" was and Sydney's and Adrian's relationship didn't give me the butterfly's Rose's and Dimitri's did, but it gave us the closure we needed for all the charachteres in this world. 
 I honestly don't understand why people complained about this last book and I can't see any reason for it. 
 For the entire series overall, 4/5 stars. 
 Now all we need is a spin off series with Lissa and Christian (from where they left off in "Last Sacrifice")
