What's it about?Waverly and the other members of the Empyrean have been scattered, and their home ship destroyed. The mission to rescue their parents didn't go quite as planned, and now they're at an even greater disadvantage: trapped with their enemies on the New Horizon, trying to find a way to survive. Will Seth's health hold out long enough to help Waverly topple their enemy? And will Waverly find a way to unite her friends before the final battle? Nothing is certain and every second is a risk in this explosive finale.
My review
Flame was a brilliant ending to a fantastic series. I have been hooked to this trilogy all the way through and the final instalment was no exception. Flame kept me on the edge of my seat throughout and kept the same pace as its predecessors, with the story constantly evolving to a great ending. And talking about the ending, right the way through the books I've wondered how the author might choose to end the series, and even how it could end. But she managed to surprise me with an ending I wasn't expecting that was also plausible and probably the best way it could've gone. So I turned the last page with a smile on my face, but also with that same little sadness at finishing a series when I've become so attached to the setting and the characters and everything they've been through. I am excited to see what the author comes up with next though!
I really have no complaints about Flame, or the whole trilogy for that matter. It took me on a rollercoaster of emotions, had my heart racing at the drama and I'll miss Waverley, Seth and even Kieran, who've I've always gone back and forth with, there were times I didn't like him but I cared about him to.
So if you've read the first two books and are wondering if the final one is worth a read, wonder no more and read it now! You won't be disappointed.

UK vs THE WORLD (36)

UK vs. The world is a weekly meme I made up lol.
It's simlair to UK vs. US except the UK covers are battling it out with their foreign counterparts from all over the world, because who doesn't love judging books by their covers!

UK                            vs.                 Germany
Sky chasers book two.
('Sternenfeuer - Vertraue niemandem' translates to 'Starfire - Trust no one.' - According to Google translate.)

Mist: Both of these covers are pretty but I think I prefer the UK cover, it has a slightly older feel than then the Germany cover which I think gives off a slight paranormal feel to it even though the book isn't paranormal. The colours in both are lovely though and I do like the pendant on the German cover.

Ninfa: Oh, I really like the German cover, the necklace is so pretty and the cover is very eye catching. I love the title as well translated as Starfire which obviously reflects in the stars on the cover.
 The UK cover is nice enough, but the images in the background are a little too blurry and confused to make much sense of it and the overall cover looses a little because of the muted colours in my opinion.
 Germany wins :)

Which do you prefer?
