This is the seventh volume of the New X-Men and the last written by Grant Morrison. With Marvel's 'Reload' of the X-Men titles this is effectively the end of the New X-Men as we have come to know them (it is X-Men Academy now I think).
I agree with another reviewer that the story is a little confusing in places and it will help greatly if you have read volume six. Stick with it because when you get to the final page and it should all fall into place for you.
This is a possible future for the x-men and because it is in the future don't expect to see all your favourite characters, as most have died or left a long time ago.
I really enjoyed this story and I especially like how they took a weak character like Beak - move him on a few generations - and low and behold his descendant is pretty cool.
Morrison ends his writing duties with a flourish and the art is provided by the great Marc Silvestri. I should probably give it five stars but I'll say four because those new to the books will not really be able to jump on here and know what is going on.

There are so many possible X-Men futures (let alone Marvel ones, as a whole) that this story has a lot of competition. Sadly, I think it fails. I'm usually a fan of Grant Morrison's writing, but in this book it's way below his usual standards. There are lots of parts in this collection which really need to be expanded on and explored to create a fuller story, but Morrison seems to be contented with going for the "cool" factor (like Image did in the early 90s - all looks and no substance), which leaves you feeling that this collection should have been a couple of issues longer to give it and the characters some fleshing out and depth. The art, however, is nice; though it's hardly Silvestri at his best.
This collection is no Days of Future Past. It's not even an Age of Apocalypse, as far as alternate timelines go. Jean Grey would be turning over in her grave - because she's dead...AGAIN!.

This final arc to Grant morrisey's story line has some good and bad points. Although a big fan of the new x-Men line I feel this is a weak section of the run. The previous storyline involving Magneto was a clever idea which was well written however this follow up is confusing and does not tie in well. People who start reading from this volume will be very confused, as opposed to those who have followed the series who will only be slightly less so. Re-reading is required to understand properly what is going on.
Although the story is a good one once it gets going with several good ideas being shown (which I won't spoil for those who haven't read this yet) I do feel the ending is weak and does not do justice to the series as a whole.
