3.5Perhaps not my favorite of the series, but it was a pretty decent finale and the ending was fitting. My only real complaint was that it felt rushed and I wanted more.Really glad that (view spoiler)[Uncle A came through in the end, even as we learn some more of his dark and storied past. (hide spoiler)]I also really liked the power found in Courtney's angsty poetry. Seems really fitting, and makes me think of my own forays into the field. ^_^I'll definitely miss these characters and this serie...

Well, I didn't want this series to end, but since it did, I must say it was a very satisfying ending to a great graphic novel series. I love it and plan to re-read it, so this will probably be a set I buy.

An excellent ending to this wonderful series. Readers are in for a surprise with where Naifeh takes the story and gives us a splendidly satisfying ending. The art is as wonderful as can be expected and having now completed the series it makes me want to go back, read those earlier volumes and go through the entire series all together. A great treat to end this splendid series!

A somewhat melancholy, but fitting end to the series...interesting quotes:"Don't wait until you're on the run, or my age, before you realize you need friends." (p. 63)"Usually, Courtney would rather rub sand in her eyes than go shopping with her mother." (p. 111)"Inside my heart, there's a tangled forest full of secrets best left alone." (p. 122)

I need to read all of these books in succession to get the full effect of the ending. It had been too long since I read the last one. But I really enjoyed it.

This volume ends the main story of Courtney Crumrin by basically burning everything down to the ground. Story plots from the entire series are pulled back in, and given extra meaning and value, as Courtney and Aloysius tangle with each other and the magic counsel, with massive world-impacting results. There is a fair bit of pathos and character-based events that pay off well, and I appreciate that Courtney is never really painted as the heroine; more she is a force of destruction pointed in a pa...

Throughout this series, and especially in this grande finale I keep wishing I could be like Courtney. She's an incredible character and is so incredibly strong. Not to mention her awesome ability to use magic and interact with supernatural beings. This is an incredible finish to an incredible series. There's awesome puppets, plot twists Miss Crisp being epic and, of course, Courtney being op. Every single comic has added tension to the story and made the reader care more and more about Courtney....

I don't want the series to end!

In the last book, Courtney is forced on the run to escape the clutches of the magical council and most surprisingly, her uncle. In this book, we follow Courtney's last journey in this topsy-turvy world.I freakin' love, love, LOVE chase scenes. I'm not talking about like car chases, but when the main characters is doing their best to outrun the person chasing them, but they're on their tail every step of the way, forcing the runner to constantly dodge and weave and hide. So we have Courtney, who

Well, I'm not entirely sure how I feel about all this. First, while this is technically book 6 of 7, it's the last of the Courtney Crumrin series. This is the book that wraps up all the loose ends, and gives the rest of the series a sense of finality. Courtney is the last witch in town. Ms. Crisp returns, but without her memories, as her mind has been cleared. Uncle A. sort of dies, sort of pulls a King Arthur and disappears into the world of the fairies. And his long-lost brother returns to the...

While Courtney Crumrin is a flawed story it's also a nice and heartwarming trip into a very creative mind. It captures the same love and touch for background detail that you could find in any movie by Guillermo del Toro.Sometimes you got to let yourself go and love something for what it is. I should do that more often, especially in these weird times we're living in where everything is self-aware and concept based.And that's the thing about Courtney Crumrin, it's filled with love and honesty, ev...

This final volume of Courtney's story is beautiful and horrible and just plain tragic. I love that, despite the Council wiping Courtney's memories and magic, Courtney found her own magic, and that justice was dealt. I'm so glad Uncle Aloysius redeemed himself. In a lot of ways I feel sorry for Courtney, though. She's no longer alone (she gains a brother), but she is going away from the world of magic, a world she fit better into. I'd like to think she'd eventually come back to Hillsborough, when...

The story and the ending were good. I actually teared up a bit. I have mixed feelings about the artwork, and though I am glad I read it, it is not a series I'd be likely to read again. That being said, I might recommend it to teens (especially younger teens) who like magic.

This was not my favorite installment. I am glad that I made it all the way through.

Beautiful ending.

Lots of action! This was a really good, and really wrapped things up nicely at the end. I’ve overall enjoyed this series.

Wonderful

Excellent conclusion to the first arc.

Say It Ain't So, TedThis is the sixth and final volume in the Courtney Crumrin story, and it has been a fine ride. Volume 1, which introduced us to Courtney, Great-Uncle Aloysius and Hillsborough, remains my favorite volume, but I am happy to report that at least for me this sixth volume constituted a coherent, surprising and fitting end to the Crumrin saga.NO SPOILERS. The blurbs on the book jacket do a fair job of touching on the plot high points. I would just add that many loose ends are tied...

Okay. Now that I'm practically done with the whole series. I'd say, overall, this book deserves the 5 stars that I just rated it with. One, the whole series displayed brilliance in storytelling with a plot that was rather twisted and dark to begin with. Ted Naifeh managed to introduce me to characters who were getting more interesting the more you read about them. The character development is impressive. And the artwork, well it's completely exceptional. Props and credits to Naifeh on both divis...
