Outstanding finale December 15, 2008

UNBELIEVABLE.....
I have just finished this book in one sitting, and what can i say but wow. An unbelievable end to what has been a brilliant trilogy.
This book see's the six friends try and end the unspeakable evil that attacks the town every seven years. The book focus's on the relationship between Gage and Cybil, two people who like to be on their own, and i found it fasinating to watch the realationship progress. The evil that attacks the group intensifies as it gets nearer to the 7th of july and the the three men and women once again must face their fears to overcome it. They also have some very tough decisions to make and Ms roberts puts you right in the middle of it all. You care for these people and throughout the book you have your fingers, toes and anything else you possible can crossed that they defeat the bad guy and live happily ever after.
A must read for any Roberts fan, and if you haven't read the other two, book a couple days off work, grab some chocolate and get yourself comfy

Warning - spoiler
"The Pagan Stone", book 3 in the "Sign of Seven" - trilogy by the sensational Nora Roberts is my personal highlight in the series, there could not have been a better way to finish what was started in "Blood Brothers" and continued in "The Hollow". The book is a really intense , sometimes sweet, sometimes sexy and an always thrilling read.
In "The Pagan Stone" the six friends (Cal, Fox, Gage, Quinn, Layla and Cybil) are preparing for the finale fight to destroy the evil that Gage, Cal and Fox set free unintentionally 21 years ago. For both sides, the good and the evil, it's a now or never situation and the six know that if they don't succeed this time there will be no next chance. But there is hope because for the first time the three men are completed by three very special ladys that share their psychic abilities and are their partners in every way.
Gage and Cybil are the ones the book concetrates on (but it's not a book about them, the other four of the team (family) are not only the supporting crew which is great).
Gage a gambler and a loner most of the times and the outspoken, intelligent Cybil clash from the first moment they meet. From not liking each other they develope mutual respect and end up in an intimate relationship.
They both are wondering about where their relationship is going to lead to especially because Cal & Quinn and Fox & Layla fell in love which each other.
The one point Gage and Cybil agree is that they don't want a serious relationship. Especially Gage is terrified at the thought of loving another person besides his two blood brothers and their families. He learned the hard way that there is not always a happy end. When his mother and unborn sister died (he was just a boy) and his father turned to alcohol and started to make his life a living hell he stoped believing in fairy tales and love.
But the complications in their personal life have to stand back when it comes to fighting the demon who is more viscious than ever and especially hates Gage and Cybil. Cybil is brutalized by the demon in a very evil way and she and Gage have to fight hard to continue their way and not give too many thoughts to hate and revenge.
When their relationship turns from "you" and "me" to "we" and the three pairs get some thrilling news tragedy strikes again and one of the team has to be willing to sacrifice himself to finally destroy the demon and save the life of the rest of his family.
"The Pagan Stone" is all I hoped for and more. I couldn't wait to finish it, it's that good. There are funny moments, lovly and some sad ones (yes I had to cry some) and all these combined makes this book just perfect.
So please get yourself a copy and enjoy this fabulous end of the "Sign of Seven" - trilogy.
S.M.
Note: I enjoyed the audiobook version just as much as the book. The narrator is great and gives you the feeling that you are part of the story and standing just a few feet away from the action.
