The Master Executioner (The Executioner's Song Book 5) Kindle Edition
A dangerous power returns to the city, and only the master executioner can stop it.
Finn has served the king as journeyman executioner, but the time has come for a testing with the executioner court. Regardless of the outcome, he will no longer serve in Verendal.
Strange attacks in the city lead Finn to believe that witchcraft has returned, but he’s the only one who suspects. He must find the answers before his testing, and fears that Master Meyer does not understand the truth.
He must be the Hunter one last time to save the city—and the kingdom—but he faces an insidious power that’s been active for far longer than he ever imagined.
The thrilling conclusion of The Executioner’s Song fantasy series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic end to a fantastic series
I am always pleased to read books written by DK Holmberg and saddened when the series comes to an end.
This series has been about redemption and finding where your path will go while recognizing that one is never truly alone.

4.0 out of 5 stars strong series
Strong series with a satisfying ending although the use of American grammar was irritating at times especially using bring where take would be more appropriate.
