Review

"Annette Oppenlander has a genuine flair for original and compelling storytelling and as with the first two volumes, "At Witches' End" will keep the readers rapt attention from cover to cover. Unfailingly entertaining from beginning to end..." -Midwest Book Review

"...Oppenlander's tale is guaranteed to please readers who love plenty of adventures, battles and love trysts. It is highly recommended YA historical fiction." -Historical Novel Society

"Max's second medieval adventure in this third Escape from the Past book is just as fascinating and fast paced as his first - if not more so. In this gripping story that will appeal to teens and teens-in-spirit alike, Max goes back in time to continue where he left off in The Duke's Wrath - but he is eighteen months older and many years wiser. Gamers and general readers alike will find the Escape from the Past trilogy un-put-downable. I sure did, and so did my teen boys." -Daniela I. Norris, author of Recognitions

"Playing a computer game for fun is one thing...playing it for your life is something else! At Witches' End is a cleverly crafted fast moving adventure, combining medieval rawness with a modern perspective. It portrays developing friendships that transcend time, historical detail that makes the setting powerfully real and shows the sometimes perilous journey of teenage coming-of-age." -S.Y. Palmer, author of May's Moon

Time Traveling...Great Friends...Computer Games...Witchcraft...Middle Ages....Castles...Knights....All make for a great novel!!!

Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2016

When Max is approached by Karl in present day 2015 to travel back in time to 1473 in the Middle Ages again by playing a computer game Max is really against playing again until he learns that he owes Karl a favor from the first time he played the game. With Karl’s help and against his better judgement Max decides to travel back in time once more to return the favor he owes Karl. Besides he will get to visit his old friend Bero and his sister Juliana who Max has a crush on.

But Max runs into a little trouble upon his arrival that may cause him to have to stay in the game for ever or better yet lose his life. Max is always on the run and hiding from someone in the game for one reason or another. He is not sure who exactly he can trust well except for the exception of Bero and Juliana.

Max has to complete his missions and find somethings that were taken from him before he can return home again that is if he can stay out of trouble and alive along enough.

Bero and Juliana’s sister is taken by Ott and Max feels as if it is his fault so he has to rescue her before it is too late. Every time he tries to rescue Adela he ends up in trouble or in a dungeon somewhere and needs someone to bail him out.

Can Max complete his mission; find all of his belongings and save his friends before it is too late? Will Max every see his home again?

The Escape from the Past novels is like a bottle of wine they just get better with time. I fell in love with Max, Bero, Juliana and all the other characters in the first book Escape from the Past: The Dukes Wrath. Then I enjoyed meeting up with Max on his next journey when he met Billy The Kid in book two of Escape from the Past: The Kid and in the third book Escape from the Past: At Witches’ End we get to go with Max to see Bero and Juliana again. Although I have loved traveling with Max on all of his journeys through the past I think that his last journey in Escape from the Past: At Witches’ End is my favorite.

Would I recommend Escape from the Past: At Witches’ End? You bet I would to anyone who loves a good book and likes to travel back in time with a great historical fiction novel.

Very Good Detail and Fast-Paced Writing

Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2017

Rating: 3 1/2 stars.

The story is good, and the writing is good. But I'd have to say, the first and second books were better in my opinion.
The romance was a bit steamier in this one. There were several references to sex and making out. I didn't like the whole premarital sex between Juliana and Max. Max also kind of irritated me in this one. The detail is still exceptional, and the author never fails to make the characters seem real. I could feel Max's emotions of anger, sadness, and relief. I'm glad the author went back to Germany for this book. I love the descriptions of the scenery and food--I could almost taste the herbal teas and meals.
Overall, it was okay. As aforementioned, The story itself is riveting and the writing is fast-paced.

Love the way it all ends!

Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2016

Bringing a trilogy to a successful end is no easy task, but Annette Oppenlander has accomplished it beautifully. At Witches End is the final book in her trilogy Escape from the Past and it’s as expertly written, entrancing and fast-moving as the other two in the series. This final book finds Max a little older and wiser when he returns to the Middle Ages, where much has changed and a whole new set of challenges await him. From being accused of sorcery and almost burnt at the stake, to watching his girlfriend marry another man, Max forges ahead on his perilous journey to the end of the game. But his adventures are not over when he arrives back home and faces one final challenge: he must bring an end to Dr. Stuler’s fiendish computer game. I love the clever way the author wraps up the story and the frame story around the stories!

Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2016

Wow, wow, wow, what an amazing book. I felt as though I had gone back in time and was actually the main character, living all the experiences and wondering how on earth I was going to extricate myself from the predicament I was in. A very clever piece of writing that had me enthralled from beginning to end.

BUY ALL THREE IN THE SERIES

Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2016

I've read all three books in the series Escape from the Past. The last book, At Witches' End, is just as exciting as the first two with more surprises and near death experiences as the other two put together. Max pushes his physical and mental abilities to the limit and is forced to decide between his love for the past or his longing to be safely home with family.

If you're looking for a great holiday gift for a young reader, I highly recommend the trilogy, "Escape From The Past" by Annette Oppenlander.

My goodness, that was quite a ride. I galloped through these three books at a fair old pace. If I did sometimes get a little annoyed that Max never seemed to learn to take more support with him, it doesn't spoil the book.
If you want a good, exciting series about time travel, this should satisfy you. I'm going to miss Max Anderson, his alter ego, Max Nerds, Luanda, Bero and the others.

A great ending to an exciting trilogy

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 29, 2016

Well, I suppose it had to happen. Plucky computer gamer Max Anderson certainly starts off on the wrong foot in this spectacular finale to the series - literally. He plunges into the computer game wearing his thick chocolate brown boots expecting to hit deep winter in 1473 medieval Germany. Of course, it turns out to be a hot summer. And that's not the only thing Max hadn't bargained for since his last trip into the past. His old friend doesn't want to know him and his hottie girlfriend Juliana has gone cool. But there are big stakes here. And Max is not easily daunted by snubs or soldiers wielding swords and wearing chain-mail. A terrific end to a gripping saga.
