Description
Want to hear a ghost story? That's good. I know a few . . .
After their recent adventures, the Lockwood & Co team deserve a well-earned break . . . so naturally they decide to risk their lives breaking into a heavily-guarded crypt. A building full of unsettled souls, it's also the final resting place of Marissa Fittes, the legendary and (supposedly) long-dead ghost hunter - though the team have their suspicions about just how dead she might be.
What they discover changes everything.
Pitched into a desperate race to get to the truth behind the country's ghost epidemic, the team ignite a final, epic battle against the Fittes agency. A battle that will force them to journey to the Other Side, and face the most terrifying enemy they have ever known.
Can everyone make it out alive?
Join Lucy, Lockwood, George and Holly for one last time as they battle ghosts and humans for truth and justice in this breathtaking finale to the bestselling series.

It is just as fun, delightful and exiting as the other books in the series and also has great character moments, but suddenly the stakes are much higher and I was worried that the conclusion we needed would be too much for just one more book. I should have just trusted Stroud. He managed to unravel everything that was needed perfectly. I maybe would have changed a few small things, but other aspects were just phenomenal and this is a perfect example on how to end your series. Lucy has developed so much and everyone had a chance to shine once more. I love it.
Story: 8/10 Characters: 9/10 Style: 6/10 I love this series! The ending was just right. Not too corny, not too long (which is the fault of many good books), just suggestive enough to be happy with it and like the whole series perfectly cozy. Especially enjoyed how through the whole story George didn't drift off to the sidekick but became more important and a hero of his own. I think I'll come back to this universe one day.
