Oblivion by Dagmar Avery and K MargaretMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Great Ending
This final book in the series made me sad to say goodbye. Thankfully there is a spin off series that I believe follows on from this one. It’s always hard to say goodbye to favourite characters and the world they inhabit, so knowing that there will be more to come brings me great happiness.
This book closed things off nicely for Verity and her Guard. One thing I really liked about this series was that not all Guard were her lovers. With some RH, it seems that all the people that are attracted to the main character become lovers, they can’t just be friends and this series allows friendships as well as lovers.
This book was mainly about the Trials that had to be passed in order to choose the new Queen. There were five trials and at the end if all candidates passed all the tests the selection was settled by combat. The candidates always had to fulfill the trials themselves, but they were allowed to draw on the power of their Guards and allies. I liked that each trial wiped out the participants and they had to recharge their power through sex. It seems to me that Trials to be Queen need to be hard, plus you get more raunchy scenes
I liked the connection that Verity had to Faerie and that she was being supported and helped through the Trials by the Sithen itself. Everything did feel a bit pre-destined, but most books feel that way, even if it isn’t explicitly stated. At least with a book about the fae, that can be excused!
All in all a good ending to a very good series. Now I’m off to download the beginning of the next series!
