The last of this series. we pretty much know what is going to happen but that isn't why you read this book. it is a nice tie up for the others and I rather like the feel of a narrator that you finally find out is the vampire. I was wondering throughout the whole book how he gets over the whole undead thing. the battle scene is rather gripping and i wasn't disappointed with the fight scenes.

This trilogy sees Nora Roberts back to her best. The characters are fabulous. The story line is fabulous. The writing is even better. I wondered how she'd make some pairing work but she did - how could I doubt her? - and these three books have become instant keepers. I won't even lend them to my mother ;-)

This is the final book in Roberts’ ‘Circle’ trilogy, and finishes the series admirably. While I personally enjoyed the second book, ‘Dance of the Gods’, most of all, Nora Roberts has the whole trilogy concept down so pat that you really can’t fault her. ‘Valley’ is about Moira and Cian, Queen of Geall and reformed vampire respectively. We knew from the previous book that would be something between them, although it takes the ladylike warrior queen to ensure that ‘something’ becomes ‘everything’. Cian has no beating heart, but he can love, and Roberts handles this with her usual sensual and sensitive flair. She also ensures there are lots of battles, some tragedies, and heroes and villains who are neither totally good or bad. Lilith, the vampire queen, has to be one of her finest creations. Lilith is deliciously, horrifically evil, and yet she too can love, and be loyal. A writer who can evoke sympathy for a creature like Lilith is good, and Nora Roberts, in all her guises, is one of the best.

I loved this third book - it dragged tears out of me and really ended the series on a high. Althought the formula is the same as all her triologies the characters in this one were the best. I liked the paranormal and alien aspects where earth and other worlds were at risk. Even the bad guys had heart and you could feel for them.
