Beyond the Blue Moon (Hawk & Fisher #7)
Now Hawk & Fisher are tough cops in the crime-torn city of Haven. The last thing they need is a reminder of who they once were.
But the Blue Moon is threatening to rise again. The Forest Kingdom needs their heroes again.
They need Rupert and Julia. What they'll get is Hawk and Fisher
Prince Rupert and Princess Julia left their Forest Kingdom before Rupert's older brother could kill them to ensure the faction that preferred Rupert as King would not have a figurehead to start a civil war. They have worked 10 years in Haven and are Captains of the Haven Guards. However, Harold has been murdered and his widow has sent a messenger requesting they find the murderer and ensure justice is done. They decide to go back as Hawk and Fisher, working as purported agents of the legendary
This book made me sad. I enjoyed Blue Moon Rising so much but found the Hawk and Fisher books dull and cliched. Hawk and Fisher are pale copies of Del and Tiger of the Sword Dancer books...and the city of Haven is just Ithakar writ small and boring.
Every time we meet a new character, there are 20 pages of exposition about what happened to that character since "Blue Moon." Exposition central. . .If you want to find out what happened to EVERY character since Blue Moon, this is good. If you want a Hawk and Fisher adventure, you can skip half this book.
This was a very good conclusion to Hawk and Fisher's saga in Haven. Spoilers aheadalthough I didn't personally liked their brutal goodbye party, they made their mark on Haven pretty much the only way it could have worked. I love the concepts that Green uses in his books. Pocket dimensions, gods, wild magic, high magic, transient beings... . I just love these ideas. This time, it was the Inverted Cathedral that was the main supernatural place. It was great. I wouldn't mind if they spend another
Worthy end of a long series. We finally find out the secret behind the castle and the problems on beginning of the series. Well written, worth reading, I just enjoyed the first volume much more.

Great end to the first series Mr Green started, funny and like most of his books always cheers me up. Bringing our heros home to save the world, again, but as usually nothing is as it seems, and this time there's a new evil to face.Prince Rupert and Princess Julia left their Forest Kingdom before Rupert's older brother could kill them to ensure the faction that preferred Rupert as King would not have a figurehead to start a civil war.
