Rory and his knights have come to finish what they started. Returning to Earth for what they hope will be the final blow to the evil that threatens them all. With new fighters on their side, they are determined to stop the monsters and evil from taking over. They must make their stand now that the two sides of evil have come together to try and use Rory and destroy Earth. Who will be the ones to survive and will there be anything left for those survivors? The time has come to see if Rory and the magic he holds is enough to defeat the evil.

I have enjoyed this series and this last book is a nice way to end the story. Hopefully it is not the last we get to see of these characters as there are many things I would love to see expanded on. Once again Rory shows more growth and strength that he has gained with the support of those around him. There is a good amount od depth tot eh characters and the plot moves at a quick pace, sometimes too quickly for me. I would have loved to see a bit more to the story. Emotions are strong and we see many bonds develop along the way. Not only did we get to see the main characters find happiness but we also got to enjoy many of the supporting characters and interactions. The love and friendships shine throughout this series and never more than in this last book. I enjoyed getting to come along for the ride on Rory’s adventure and hope I get to see him again.

Rory and his men are still on a journey of a lifetime. Rory and his mate Inkiri continue to bond and enjoy each other as Rory heals and learns about his magic. As Rory is slowly coming to terms with the power that he has and how it comes to him they must fight the evil that continues to try and take Rory. Soon Rory needs all his man and more to help fight the evils that come for them from all sides. Rory must begin to grow up and face the facts of what life has given him and learn how to wield the force that he has. New friends are made along the way and enemies are uniting. Rory and his knights must hurry to save everyone and everything that they hold dear to them. 

I enjoyed this newest adventure that Rory and his men go on. This is only a step in their journey but it is a big one. It was nice to see the way Rory is beginning to grow and understand what is needed of him. The bond between him and his mate Inkiri deepens as does his friendship bonds to the other men. The trust and love that they all have shows in everything that they do. You can even see it in the barbs between Rory and Vergis. Not only did I enjoy the main characters but I loved meeting the secondary ones as well. Rory learns a lot in this book and we see him beginning to grow with the help of those around him. It is also interesting to learn about the magic itself and how it thinks as it communicates with Rory. The author has woven and interesting world that brings different kinds of magic together. This book pulled me in right from the start. Each new book is a fresh adventure for Rory and the author keeps it fresh and interesting with each book and not drawn out and each book has me more invested in Rory and his men. As the author indicates this book does end on a doozy of a cliffhanger and I am eager to return to this world to see Rory and his knights fight again.

As Rory spends more time with Inkiri and the others their bond grows. Rory has left Earth and all he knows behind to find a place of refuge and safety. Yet it seems the evil that began it all is still in search of Rory and what it is that he can do. Rory and his new family work hard to figure out what is happening with Rory and what makes him so special. They have travelled to another world where Rory hopes to find peace. Sooner than they would like the men’s peaceful visit is interrupted and Rory must fight to save those that he holds dear.

Each new book in this story endears Rory and his men a little more to me. I enjoyed seeing the bond grow and flourish between Rory and Inkiri. Seeing everyone interact and begin to bond with Rory made for a nice read. The banter between Rory and Vergis only gets better. The two are learning to become friends and we see a deepening understanding between the two. It was nice to see Rory growing and beginning to find himself and to understand his feelings for all the so called monsters that he is attached to. Rory is learning that Inkiri and his kind may look scary but they are not the monsters to be afraid of. The author has woven a wonderous world with this series and each book has me excited to see what will happen next in this fight for Earth.
