War Storm is the fourth and final novel in Victoria Aveyards' Red Queen series.  The characters are locked in the midst of war and the overall story arc reaches its conclusion.

Amy's Review

I enjoyed this final installment of the Red Queen series. Things turned out, for the most part, the way I would have wanted. The future is hopeful for the characters. The story was full of action and adventure, like the other books in the series, and really not very different than the first three novels, leaving me with nothing new to say. If you enjoyed the other three novels in this series then you will probably enjoy this resolution to the story. It does not disappoint. This was a very satisfying series overall.

Lynnie's Review

So look, this book is 662 pages long. Easily 400 of these pages are devoted to long, languid descriptions of scenery, clothing, scents, and feelings. Oh & the never-ending inner turmoil of these characters. (I love him but he can never give me what I want or need so I don't love him, but I totally do love him, but I can't.) OMG rip my eyeballs out of my head.

There were about 200+ pages of action, which was once again exciting & interesting & I'm endlessly fascinated by how everyone uses their abilities, but for the most part I just had a hard time caring about the characters anymore after all that naval gazing. Bottom line, if you read the first three you're very likely to read this one. You will probably even enjoy it. Me though? I'm just glad that it's over.
