Access The Fire (Witch Wizard, #3) Documented By James Patterson Accessible As Digital

can't believe that this is part of the same Witch and Wizard series that I loved so much! This book was horrible, I had to force myself to finish it and even that was off of principle alone, Otherwise I would've walked away from this, It was so boring I'm sorry but this was so out of character for James Patterson! Horrible ending also, It was like all of the sudden and very lackluster they defeat "the One" and resume their normal lives, The family just casually went back home and discussed mundane things like fixing a rusty garage door and reprinting the bathroom Really!

So weird.


They don't even thoroughly explain their "M", wtf I got so fed up with them being elusive and vague between their parents and people NOT telling them how to use their magic but eluding that they know how to.
I was ready to shoot myself! And Wisty and Whit being so indecisive Annoying! Wisty being courageous then Wisty being a wuss, Whit wanting to save the world and whit just wanting to die so he can be with Celia again,

Never thought I'd say this, . . but I hated it! That was awesome,

I'm just so glad I decided to read this book at all and ignore all the negative reviews it got,

Bookwas okay, Bookwas better. And now this. KLJFKLDJSDLKSFJDSFJKLSDJL:SDFJDSKSJDF:SDKLFJDSKL:FJSD It was fabulous, The first page is actionpacked already, Well that apparently is because The Gift just ended in the middle of nowhere,

Anyways, this sort of reminds me of City of Glass by Cassandra Clare in a way because it has a happy ending where the antagonist is truly defeated.
And I have a feeling bookisn't entirely necessary, This series would do great as a trilogy, Honestly I can't bear to be seen holding a book in public called "The Kiss, " Ou no. But we'll just see, won't we

Okay I'm just sort of frustrated at the covergirl because Wisty is supposed to be a redhead.
Sheesh.

Now that I read the book I completely understand the significance of the title, When I first saw it I was like, "That is so general I can't even, . " and it turns out that it's really important,

Good job, JP, But I still can't get over his writing style, Ohmygoodness. But I ranted enough about that in previous reviews for this series,

And really that's all, This review and others can be found on my blog at bookaholicness, com. This book starts approximately a month or two after Whit and Wisty's parents were executed, Wisty has apparently caught the blood plague, a virus that is spreading throughout the new world, So a lot has happened since then, This usually annoys me, but I liked it this time, It took a little while to catch up, but I liked that because I didn't already know everything,

A lot of this book takes place in the shadowland, which I didn't like about the previous books, but I still think The Fire was my favorite.
I think the writing was better in this one than in the others and it was more well paced,

I liked that whit and wisty split up, Although it was a little hard to follow at times, and I had to go back a couple chapters to see what happened, It was more entertaining because you are hearing two stories at once.


SPOILER ALERT!!
What I thought of the ending:

OMG! I loved how it ended, It was so well written at that point and It was happy and sad at the same time, Although everything isn't the way it always was, it was better that way, and the ending was my favorite part of the book,

Okay first of all, I like how things ended with Celia, Janine was always my favorite, and even though most people liked Celia better, I just didn't like her, She annoyed me.

Wisty and Byron! :D OMG I love them!! I'm so happy they finally got together, That was my favorite thing in the whole book, I've wanted them to be together since the first time wisty turned Byron into a weasel, I sound so girly but oh well! I'm just really excited! haha

I like that some things went back to normal here, but not everything.
Cause let's face it: the world can't go through all that and then be completely the same afterward, So yeah, I liked that it wasn't too perfect,

I liked that their parents were able to come back to the overworld after the one died, It would have been way too sad for them to lose Celia, all the other people who died, and be orphans, That being said, I think it was good that they didn't go back home like everything was normal, It was cool that they continued to help,

Okay, so that concludes my review! I know I didn't list any complaints, but that was because everything I wanted to happen did.
It was a great ending to the series assuming that this is the ending and my favorite so far,
I definitely recommend this series All I can say is that there's always something waiting for you when you turn the page, This slightly dystopian novel, makes you laugh, makes you cry, and shocks you right until the last page, It's one of the series that I reread when I have a few hours on my hands, Money worth spending! NO, Miss Pearl Marie, The One Who Is The One is NOT God,

Despite my initial thoughts, based on Pearl up there, this was pretty good! Wisty was pretty goodshe got her hair backthe villain was nice and villainous, and Pearce was sufficiently reminiscent of Draco Malfoy, though he'd have been even more formidable had his name been spelled "Pierce.
" Whatever.

SPOILERS!
Seriously, Whitford P. Allgood. What does the "P" stand for Could you please, Pretty please. With gummy bears on top, could you PLEASE try and be less obsessed with your dead girlfriend's SCENT! I mean, come on! The ratio of Whit talking about Celia's bloody scent to Max describing Fang as dark is probably about exactly the same, and so far I've counted upwards to thirty "darks" or "blacks" when describing Fang.
Yes, I have been keeping track, I was annoyed.

Also, what was with the stupid ENDING! Seriously! They leave Draco Malfoy's Clone lying unconscious in a forest somewhere, kill The One Who Is The One, and then go back HOME!! No way!!! I need a sequel!! Where Wisty does NOT get together with Byron.
That was rushed, slapdash, and highly improbable, not to mention gross, Sasha and Wisty. Pearce and Wistokay, no, Pearce is gross, But ANYONE BESIDES PEARCE BUT BYRON!!!! Join Whit and Wisty on a magical quest to defeat the villain, once and for all, who has devastated their world.


Whit and Wisty Allgood have sacrificed everything to lead the resistance against the merciless totalitarian regime that governs their world, Its supreme leader, The One Who Is The One, has banned everything they hold dear: books, music, art, and imagination, But the growing strength of the siblings' magic hasn't been enough to stop The One's evil rampage, and now he's executed the only family they had left.


Wisty knows that the time has finally come for her to face The One, But her fight and her fire only channel more power to this already invincible being, How can she and Whit possibly prepare for a showdown with the ruthless villain that devastated their worldbefore he can truly become allpowerful

In this stunning third installment of the epic, bestselling Witch amp Wizard series, the stakes have never been higherand the consequences will change everything.
I just really can't stand wisty, . . What a Great Series!!! Whit and Wisty, who are brother and sister, really make this Series, . After reading books that are a complete opposite, it's nice to have a fantasy book to read, . . James Patterson is a Superb AUTHOR : The third installment of this series definitely kept the pace that I have come to expect from James Patterson.
This book was filled with action and had me turning the pages as fast as I could to try to keep up,
This book starts off much like the others, giving the reader an update on all that has happened while stressing the horrors that are to come.
Regardless of who begins the book, be it Whit or Wisty, their ultimate goal is to remind the reader that this is not "a fairy tale" and that things are not going well for all of the world.
Since they escaped from execution at the end of the last novel, this book starts with Whit on the run, carrying Wisty as she dies from the latest horror to befall anyone that still had the courage to resist The One Who Is The One.
The Blood Plague.
This plague is the latest war tactic that The One has brought upon all nonconforming citizens in the New Order, Whit and Wisty found themselves in makeshift emergency camps trying to use their healing powers to save thousands of children and adults, but Wisty contracts the plague herself.

Whit finds a dilapidated building and tries to catch his breath, Unfortunately, one young officer locates them and threatens to kill them, All hope seems lost when the young soldier suddenly falls to the ground, unconscious, Enter a small, jaded child to save the day, This little girl, Pearl Marie Neederman, decides to help them and gives Whit a choice to follow her, Whit follows this girl, unsure if she can truly be trusted or where their destination might lie, After running forever, the girl brings him to a partially collapsed building where her family lives, In the remaining basement apartment, Whit finds a moment to rest and allow Wisty to lay in relative peace,
Pearl Marie lives in this small space with what remains of her family, There are many characters that call this basement home, all under the watchful eyes of Pearl Marie's mother, Mama May, Pearl Marie convinces Mama May that the fugitives can stay, stating that if they were going to contract the plague, they would have already.
After Mama May gives her approval, the rest of the family begins to warm to the Allgoods,
The Allgoods end up staying with the Nedderman's, since Wisty is in no condition to move, Whit is told by Pearl Marie that he needs to pull his weight, Whit changes his features so that he will not be recognized, but Pearl Marie makes fun of the fact that he changed his features into a previously famous celebrity.
Whit gets defensive stating that the musician used to be one of Celia's favorite things to listen to, Pearl Marie dismisses this statement and promises to watch Wisty, at least until she officially dies, while Whit is out in the city, Whit leaves but is lost in thoughts of Celia and loses his ability to reason, He races through the streets trying to escape as much from the N, O. as from himself and the hell that this world has become, Finally, he launches himself into a brick wall hoping to find a portal to the Shadowland and his lost love, After not going through the wall, because come on the chances of it really being a portal are pretty low Whit pulls himself

together.
He focuses on their old friends from the Resistance and on his sister, He turns and runs back to the Nedderman's with a plan to possible revive his sister's health, but finds Pearl Marie no where to be found.
When she finally returns, he is fuming but requests her help to save his sister, He plans on channeling Magic through her, much as Byron did, to see if that will help heal Wisty,
Whit calls upon a poem and focuses on healing his sister, Pearl Marie says a prayer for Wisty and resigns to actually helping Whit, even though she believes that it is hopeless, After some intense concentration, Whit feels his Magic finally responding, He is able to heal Wisty of the Blood Plague, but she will still need time to regain her strength and fully heal from the brink of death.
They stay with the Nedderman's while Wisty continues to recover enjoying the family atmosphere and celebrating the Holiday with them,
When Whit goes out again into the city he comes across a horrible sight, something that will stay with him for the rest of his life.
He comes across a mob of New Order citizens surrounding a bonfire, complete with the charred remains of a body, The New Order has brought back witch burnings, Whit is too late to help this unfortunate soul and he tries to convince Wisty that they need to leave, wanting to get out of the city and away from what he had just witnessed.
However, he withholds the event from Wisty, since she is still recovering and he doesn't want her to have to live with the knowledge of what the N.
O. are doing. They enjoy the moment and use their returning Magic to create a Holiday feast and decorations, All of this is greatly appreciated by the family, but Pearl Marie speaks up, She asks why, if they are indeed the children of the Prophecy, they haven't fixed everything yet This is a sobering moment for the small party, but Whit and Wisty understand what she means.
Will this small child push them towards their fears and actually taking on The One Will her stating what everyone is thinking cause Whit and Wisty to finally "man up" and work harder than every to fulfill the prophecy
Unfortunately, the celebrations are interrupted by officers of the N.
O. Apparently The One knows exactly where the Allgoods are, having been watching everything through a camera in the basement, Panic ensues, but Wisty turns the Neederman's into rodents so that they can fell safely from the N, O. officers and they zombie dogs, After that, Whit and Wisty escape up the stairs and run through the broken building to the higher floors, Eventually, they are forced to jump out a window, luckily landing in a pile of garbage that helps to cushion the blow, As they turn to make their leave, they find that Pearl Marie has actually been captured, Apparently she disappeared before everyone was changed into rodents, fearing the wolves and not heading Whit's warning to stay with Mama May, Whit knows they have to run, even though Wisty wants to rescue her, and promises that they will come back and save her and her family.
He pulls Wisty away, telling her they won't save anyone if they are dead, and they resume their running escape from the city, They run for miles, but Wisty is still weak from the plague and they are forced to stop and sleep in a dumpster behind a burger place, eating some of the "food" that has been thrown out.

Whit either gets a visit from Celia, or dreams of a visit from her, while they sleep in the dumpster, She relays a message from their parents and presents him with a special pen as a gift, Upon hearing the message from their parents, they decide to go to a parking garage at which Wisty used to help tend victims of the Blood Plague.
They also plan on looking for clues as to where other Resistance members might be, looking first in the pipe where they had separated from them in the first place.

Whit and Wisty transform their bodies into midaged adults and head into the clinic to try and pass their gift of healing onto the suffering victims.
They wander around and eventually begin with the worse off, after a fellow nurse states that those victims might just need a hand to hold since they are not going to make it.
They are able to save tons of children, although some are too far gone for their help, They also come across Jamilla, but can't believe that it is her, She is now skin and bones, obviously dying, They greet her and make sure that she knows that they are only disguised, but this only causes her to panic, She informs them that the Resistance members are lost, but loses consciousness or actually dies, I am not really sure on this fact before being able to give them more information on what this means.
A group of N. O. soldiers enter the area to inspect and Wisty fears that their disguises will wear off leaving them trapped, Once again they flee from the scene, though at a much slower pace than normal since they haven't reverted from creaky bones and arthritis.
They run for the steam pipe to try to get some clues as to what Jamilla is talking about for the rest of the Resistance kids.

On the way, they come across a familiar site for Whit, A group of N. O. citizens are surrounding wooden posts that have two girls tied to them, Wisty is horrified as she realizes what is about to happen, but gets even more upset when Whit lets on that this has been seen before.
They ban together and run after the crowd, Wisty a flaming torch, screaming at the top of her lungs, While Wisty distracts, scares, and scatters the angry crowd, Whit unties the girls, After the girls decided to head home, instead of traveling with the Allgoods to get the Resistance back together, Wisty changes them into rodents so that they have a better chance of making it all the way home.

The troops from early have followed them, The leader, Pearce, and his goons begin to surround them, Unable to escape, they decide to try to make a stand, Pearce tells them that he will be hand delivering Wisty to The One, but that Whit is expendable, At this point, Pearce uses his Gift on Whit, the ability to melt off people's faces and kill them, Whit fights, even though he is in excruciating pain, and is able to overcome Pearce somehow, Pearce falls to the ground, momentarily unconscious, and all of his goons stand around scared and confused, Whit is also down for the count, and Wisty is forced to waste valuable escape time trying to A make sure he isn't dead, and B trying to wake him back up.
Enter Mrs. H in dramatic fashion. She is in more normal, N, O. accepted attire, and Wisty fears that she might have switched sides, Mrs. H helps them escape, using Magic to help them flee to her new apartment in the main city, So basically they backtracked and are now stranded even further in the city they were trying to escape from, . . Whoops
She helps Whit use his powers, allowing him to see his parents in the Shadowland by a river, His parents absolutely forbid Whit and Wisty from entering the Shadowland and trying to find them, After the communication is cut off, the siblings inform Mrs, H that they are going to save their parents and she can help if she wants, but they will do it alone if necessary.
Mrs. H proudly informs them that there is a time when all parents must be disobeyed and gives them knowledge about how the rest of the journey for them will progress, if it is to be successful.

Per Mrs. H, Whit and Wisty split up, Whit heads to the only know Portal to the Shadowland that Mrs, H knows about, with the mission to make it to the river and see/save his parents, Her main advice to him is not to fear the dead, Wisty heads to the capital, disguised as a blonde, She is to infiltrate the N, O. ranks because her mission is to deal with The One,
Wisty is able to join the N, O. Kill Squad, after coming across one marching through the city and stating that she wanted to join, They take her in, expecting her to be punished or executed, but Wisty is able to use her power on the man in charge and changes his mind to allowing her to join.
After getting into the squad, she has to maintain her cover and look for an opportunity to learn more about The One and get close to him.
She comes face to face with Pearce, but is left mainly unharmed after the encounter due to her disguise, suffering only a forced kiss of grossness.
She mets with Byron and enlists his help to get moved to the cleaning crew of the higher up N, O. officers elite. She begins scrubbing toilets and eventually is assigned to The One's throne room, While in his sparse apartment, she searches through things to find weaknesses, She finds color contacts, dentures, and a locked drawer that holds clues to his past, Eventually she gets the courage to confront The One and sneaks into the building where he lives, He is, however, waiting for her when she arrives, claiming that he has always known who she was but was waiting for her to join him on her own.
He shows her a room full of mirrors, and she almost loses to her own ego, Then he shows her an endless room filled with all that they people are now denied and banned from enjoying, All books, music, etc. The One tries to force her to give him his Gift, but she turns the power around and knocks him unconscious, Fleeing the room, scared for her life, she runs into Pearce outside of the building, He tries to kill her, but Wisty is able to turn her power on him instead, She would have succeeded in killing Pearce, but Byron interfered, misreading the situation, Leaving Pearce unconscious in a corner, Byron and Wisty make a run for a secret portal into the Shadowland, Per Byron's intel, Whit is in trouble in the Shadowland and running out of time,
Whit makes it into the Shadowland, passed the confused guards, and immediately is captured by the Lost Ones, He is taken prisoner and brought further into the Shadowland than he has ever been before, Located on the outskirts of a forest made of bones, the Lost Ones' camp is the scene where Whit spends most of his time in the Shadowlands this book.
He is reunited with main faces from the Resistance, the kids having been captured and prisoners of the Lost Ones as well, The Lost Ones gear up for a feast, Whit fearing that he will be first to be eaten since he is kept separate from everyone else.
But the Lost Ones inform him that the prophecy states that his is their savior, so he won't be eaten as long as he saves them.
The other children are the anticipated food and are tied to spits and covered with seasoning and sauce to baste them with, Enter Celia, telling Whit that he will survive, she is sure of it, She acts strangely and claims that she can't bail him out this time, but comes back with a horde of HalfLights and sends the Lost Ones fleeing.
After the Lost Ones are gone and everyone is untied and unharmed, they agree to head on with Whit some convincing is necessary and make their way to the river, Celia leading the way.
They are ambushed on the way there by soul suckers, and there are casualties and severely wounded after the battle is over, They still continue on, since there is really no safe place anymore, and eventually crest a hill to see the River, Leaving most of the group together, working on helping the ones that need healing, Whit and a couple main Resistance kids set off through the crowds of dead people looking for his parents.
They finally find his parents trying to organize and help the lost souls, unable to cross over since The One has raised the bridge to the other side.
After a reunion of happiness, Celia informs the group that she can feel Wisty is also in the Shadowlands, causing Whit to take off to find her.

Byron and Wisty have made it into the Shadowland, even though they were ambushed before the portal by The One, Pearce and tons of soldiers, all with the intent to kill them.
Wisty almost lost everything, getting stuck with fear until Byron manages to get her moving again, They are traveling through the forest of bones, Wisty following the pull of the River on her magic, when they are startled by Pearce, apparently a Curve.
They stand together, hoping that it will be enough to take on Pearce, But Pearce is stronger now, since Wisty using her power on him earlier has "powered him up, " Pearce moves so fast that he becomes invisible and is able to land blows on both Wisty and Byron, Byron is thrown into a heap of illogical angles, not moving, and Wisty fears that he is dead, She is about to lose to Pearce when Whit charges in and tackles him, A fight ensues, where Pearce molds Whit into a football and punts him across the forest, Thinking that he won, Pearce is blindsided by Whit returning, unharmed, and slamming into him at an incredible speed, Pearce is knocked unconscious, if not killed by the hit, and Whit and Wisty gather Byron not actually dead to head off to safety.

They make it to the River and Wisty is reunited with her parents finally, The joy is shortlived however, as The One arrives on the scene, Wisty's attack on him back at his apartment has powered him up enough where he can finally enter the Shadowland, no longer a Straight and Narrow.

The most intense, epic battle ensues between The One and the siblings of the Prophecy, The one calls on all the forces that he controls, splitting the earth, causing tornadoes, calling forth hail, freezing the air and water, He is so overpowered and all the souls flee in fear, All except for Wisty's mother, She stands tall and calls out The One for upsetting the balance of the world and playing God, The One attacks their mother, and Wisty is finally kicked into action, Wisty calls forth a flaming meteor and barely manages to throw it at The One, It misses because The One has disappeared, but it is enough to release their mother from her torture in the sky and she falls into Whit's arms.
The One's storms draw Wisty's power out against her will, She becomes an electrical storm, hovering in the air, Whit is unable to help and tries to focus on healing the world around them to keep from falling into the ever expanding earth.
Celia sacrifices herself and launches directly into the eye of The One's storm, She is able to distract The One long enough for Wisty to be released, alive and relatively unharmed, Wisty manages to get Whit to concentrate enough to launch a counter attack on The One, All around them, souls and Resistance alike, start to chant the words of the Prophecy, "A boy and a girl, fated to rule all.
Two will rise, and One will fall, " The power of the chant adds to the magic that they are throwing at The One, focusing on bringing an end to this evil.
The strength of the crowd and their powers are enough to bring about the end of The One, He disappears into a cloud of smoke and the siblings are victorious, They heal the Shadowland, rebuilding the bridge and allowing everyone to cross, Celia finally can cross over, her "unfinished business" completed, However, the Allgoods aren't like all the other lost souls, They are solid, and Whit and Wisty speculate that they can actually leave,
Cut to the family together and happy, heading back to their old home, The destruction of The One has caused his magic to undo, and neighborhoods have returned, All that died were not restored, but things are beginning to move in a positive direction, Whit and Wisty once again say goodbye to their parents, knowing that they need to continue the Prophecy and help recreate the world, They gather some of the Resistance kids and set out to help make sure that the world doesn't fall back into chaos,
Byron and Wisty seem to now be a couple, As is Whit and Janine, although their relationship will probably have to move past the whole Celia thing, The next book is called the Kiss, which has me wondering if it has to do with the electrifying kiss that Byron planted on Wisty.
I assume the next two books will be how they rebuild, since the world will be ruled by the next generation,
Is The One truly gone Will Pearce be back Is there anything that actually comes of the passing fact of him being from a land of Magic Will Whit and Wisty continue to improve on their powers or slowly become irrelevant How exactly do you return to school and listening to your parents after saving the world Their whole relationship dynamic has changed since their parents literally owe their lives and the return of normalcy to their children.

I have to admit that I am a little nervous to see the direction that the next two books take, Can James Patterson keep the pace and action of the three books already in the series after all that has happened in this book along Will it still be as absorbed, greedy for the next page or book, as I continue the series Or has this series brought my expectations to an unattainable level for all that remains.
