Product Description:
IT HAS BEEN A YEAR OF CHANGE since Gemma Doyle arrived at the foreboding Spence Academy. Her mother murdered, her father a
laudanum addict, Gemma has relied on an unsuspected strength and has discovered an ability to travel to an enchanted world called the realms, where dark magic runs wild. Despite certain peril, Gemma has bound the magic to herself and forged unlikely new alliances. Now, as Gemma approaches her London debut, the time has come to test these bonds.

The Order - the mysterious group her mother was once part of - is grappling for control of the realms, as is the Rakshana. Spence's burned East Wing is being rebuilt, but why now? Gemma and her friends see Pippa, but she is not the same. And their friendship faces its gravest trial as Gemma must decide once and for all what role she is meant for.

- Great ending to seris, but very sad. :(
I didn't like the ending to this book for one reason. And that reason made me so sad. Kartik dies! How dare that be the end. I hated that. Yeah I know he died for Gemma and that it was true love. But why couldn't they have made it Felicity or Ann who dies? I did really love the travel to the end. It was filled with ups and downs. You learn more about the realms. This book is twice the romance, twice the advanture and twice the magic. To each his own magic! Fans of the previous books will love the ending to the Gemma Doyle seris. I was dissapointed in the end, but this is still one of my favorite books! People who love Harry Potter and people who love the Twilight saga will love this book. Because the Gemma Doyle seris is a cross between the two, Harry Potter because of the magic and Twilight because of the romance. A Sweet Far Thing has many different twists and suprises. Even though the ending is tragic this a great ... Read More

- Great Series but Such a Sad Ending!
A Great and Terrible Beauty, Rebel Angels, and The Sweet Far Thing were such great books that I could not put them down. My favorite was The Sweet Far Thing even though it was long and pretty sad. I'm just really disappointed with the ending of that book though when Kartik dies. I acutually cried! I really didn't understand that part that much either but, I was just so sad. Gemma and Kartik should have had a happily ever after ending living back in India or in America. Their love was strong and then he has so die! Also when Miss McCleathy gets sacrificed too and dies, was pretty sad too. Overall, this book was filled with so much thrilling adventures and romance. It was a great book with just a really sad ending that should have been modified!

- Last book in trilogy wouldn't have made it as first
I got this book as a gift after it came out. I had already read the first two and enjoyed them. This book almost drags on alittle bit but has some serious parts. I wish I had asked someone what they thought about it before my grandmother bought it. I truly wish it had been better than the first two. Reader beware this book is good but it's very long and drags on at a lot of points.
