Readers, it's finally here — the last book in the Pendragon saga, The Soldiers of Halla. This book is the end: the final showdown between Bobby Pendragon and fellow Travelers to save Halla from Saint Dane.

For those who haven't read the first books in the series, I recommend you do so before exploring this book. All the characters and worlds and twists and turns that are rampant in this book will keep you hooked for all 10 books.

Don't get intimidated once you start reading the first book because before you know it, you'll be finishing the last one.

In this book, Bobby Pendragon, Lead Traveler, is reconnected with all the Travelers including his Uncle Press and the family he left when he found out his true destiny as a Traveler. They meet on Solara, the space of all living things, where the Travelers came from and where they learn all the answers to the unanswered questions.

Solara is also the place they realize that their last mission is to defeat Saint Dane and save Halla. They must use the mistake Saint Dane made and track down the Exiles.

The Exiles are the only way to save Halla, Solara and the good of humankind. The only problem is they have no idea how to find the Exiles, and when they travel to the territories, they discover the many changes Saint Dane's followers, the Ravinas, have made. Can they get to the Exiles before Saint Dane finishes them off? Will they finally beat Saint Dane? Will they correct how things were meant to be? You have to read the book to find out.

I recommend this book to any Pendragon fan or anyone who's looking for a good fantasy book. Also for you Pendragon fans, don't worry, D.J. Machale isn't finished writing. Machale has come out with another series of books of the Travelers telling the Travelers stories before they found out their true destinies.
