Hi. Do you remember me? Probably not and that’s normal. I wrote a few months ago on The Fallen of Charlie Higson. I asked you to talk about Ollie . Since the book came out and I love it. Ollie is really great and it’s always my favorite character! Now, the last book came out yesterday, October 29 (the day of my birthday!) And I wonder if you’ll read it and make a summary like other books. Yep, two-year offset from the English version are vers long. I envy you, all of you, Anglophones have everything before the world ;-). I wonder, in this book, if Ollie survives (the most important), if Shadowman survives (my second character)and they become, of course. Well, that’s all and that’s not bad. XD as a birthday present. Good reading to you. Thank you.
Hi Anne,
I do remember you. I replied to you saying that you’d like more about Ollie, and that I said this was a good idea. That if The End wasn’t the last book in the series, I would have done some character background blog posts.
I pre-ordered The End months ago, and it arrived yesterday. 🙂 So yes, I will be reading and reviewing it over the next few weeks/month.
Take care and keep an eye out on my blog for the book review post.

Hi. I expect your article on The End forward, even more than that. I hope your item will arrive quickly, so I want to know what happens to all the characters (although I do not think the main die – Charlie Higson would otherwise many enemies). I will therefore monitor very closely all your publications to see the article on The End. Enjoy reading.
Hi Anne,
It arrived safely and I am so far 100 pages in! It was out slightly later in the year than the last one – so means it will be close to Christmas/at Christmas when the review is likely to be published.

Hi. I look forward to your publication. Christmas is both far away and very close. A month is a long time. But I doubt that you do it in your spare time and that this must be the longest book in the series. But I will be patient, so I want to know what is going to happen that I can not do otherwise. I always do a thousand assumptions about what will happen and some excerpts that I read left me unsatisfied. As long as I know what happens, time does not matter. Enjoy reading. And again thank you to let me know, I unfortunately found no other opinion than yours on Charlie Higson.
Hi Anne,
Just finished reading The End now! This very second. I will be completing a review soon, but thought that you’d like to know that Olly survives and makes a big contribution to the final battle.

Hello
I look forward to your review but I am delighted to learn that Ollie survives (even if it was unlikely he dies). I can not wait to learn what happened in the book and what happened to the characters. I hope Dylan, my other favorite character is alive.
Highly your review to know the end of the story.
See you soon i hope !!!
Bonjour Anne!
I can’t remember a Dylan. Did he have another name? Like Shaddowman or Jester?
I’ve got three other books to review, before I get to review The End, but when I do, it will be a good review.

One question I forgot to ask you: Lettis and Ollie are they in love with each other?
Lettis spends most of the book traumatised by what happened at St. Pauls. Ollie is quite a bit older than her. She follows Ollie everywhere, but is too young for him. So I’m sorry but those two don’t get together due to age.
When Lettis isn’t following him around, she is with the smaller kids (such as Small Sam, The Kid, etc.) or in the library with Chris and the kids that want to document the new history. Right near the end, Lettis picks up her notebook and says that she wants to document what happens in the great battle with the grown ups, showing that she is slowly getting over what happened at St. Pauls. This is a good ending for her.
Ollie has a good ending to – in the sense that he survives, when lots of other kids don’t.

Yes, Dylan is Shadowman, Justin’s best friend (well, former best friend).
It hurts me to hear you say that many children do not survive. It’s ugly but I’m glad that Ollie is alive.
For Lettis, I asked the question because I read on the Internet that she was in love with Ollie and I don’t love this idea. Ollie Mertie someone solid, intelligent and Lettis does not match the description. In fact, I’m sure Ollie and Shadowman would agree perfectly as friends (and even more if there were more).
In short, I am more qu’impatiente read your reveiw, failing to read the book (hell, two years is far too long. I regret not being bilingual).
Good continuation.
Hi Anne,
I thought Dylan might be Shaddowman, but couldn’t remember.
Shaddowman plays a vital role in The End. He helps to bring the kids together for the big battle and arranges for a few surprises that help turn the tide of the battle. As at the start, the grown ups out number the kids.
Some children do die and one or two of my favourite characters did.
You were right about Ollie and Lettis. 🙂
Your English is very good. You should consider buying an english version of The End.

Google Traduction is my friend !!!! A very good friend. XD
Thank you for yours informations, they help me to perceive what will happen. I await your review for further imformations on this book. But to know that Ollie and Shadwoman are alive is already great.
Hi Anne,
Ah, google translate is amazing! I’m just starting on my review of The End now :). Will no doubt take me a few days to a week to complete, as a lot happens in this last book in the series.
Please don’t think I am ignoring you :).
