The Last Apprentice: Fury of the Seventh Son (Book 13)

By: Joseph Delaney

Narrated by: Alexander Cendese

The thirteenth—and final—book in the internationally bestselling fantasy adventure series that inspired the forthcoming major motion picture Seventh Son. Finally, Tom Ward, the spook's last apprentice, will confront the Fiend for the last time. A stunning conclusion to the acclaimed series!

Tom Ward has battled boggarts, ghasts, witches, dark gods, and the most terrifying creatures to roam the earth. He's allied with the witch assassin Grimalkin, with a powerful boggart, and with Alice . . . the young witch who is also his true love. And he has kept one step ahead of the Fiend, the most evil being in the world. Now he will vanquish the Fiend once and for all. But it will require a terrible sacrifice: not everyone Tom cares about will survive the final battle. The Last Apprentice series is soon to be a major motion picture, Seventh Son, starring Jeff Bridges, Ben Barnes, Alicia Vikander, Kit Harington, Olivia Williams, Antje Traue, Djimon Hounsou, and Julianne Moore as Mother Malkin. It's a suspenseful thrill ride that's "spine-tingling" (Publishers Weekly) and "anything but tame" (Horn Book). But don't read it after dark!

The last was the best!!!

The drama was much more palpable and kept me at the edge of my seat!!!

Sad ending to a great series.

Alexander wasn't bad, but he's no Christopher Evans Welch. This book was a great story, summing up Tom's learning and evolution. However, it was hardly a happy ending. I hope Joseph Delaney continues stories of Tom Ward and the other characters I've come to enjoy.

Fitting end to a great series

This is the Harry Potter for grown ups. A series so good I've tried buying new releases from England (who gets it first). One of the first thing the cover of the book advises is to "not read it after dark". That advice makes me smile because this describes the series perfectly. It is so fun creepy, that you never want the book(s) to end.

In this the 13th and last book, it was wonderful that Tom shed the old issues and people and paves the way for a new series. A new apprentice that is the 7th DAUGHTER of a 7th DAUGHTER. How cool is that?

There are some that lament the lost of Alice to the dark; but I for one was getting tired of the inner fighting of Alice's soul. I mean, enough already. I even got bored with old Gregory's preaching.

This was a book that had Tom finally grow up. He understood his role and came to appreciate his powers without being torn between Alice's and Gregory's vision of his place in future events.

Tom is ready to move on--and so am I.

Great story bad narrator

loved the story but the new narrator killed the voices of previous narrator and the it made the story fell. making mab sound Irish proves he never listened to the other narrator

Great conclusion

A very satisfying ending to a great series. I would highly recommend reading all of the books!
