Book Description
Luke Callindor, Nyx, and their friends have celebrated victories and nursed the wounds of defeat many times in their adventures. Now, the destined champions of Windemere have their final battle on the horizon. Even knowing at least one of them will not live to see the end, they will start the dangerous journey to Shayd and finally face Baron Kernaghan the Warlord of the Forgotten Age. Are the champions fated to win or will they be the first corpses their enemy buries beneath his new kingdom?
The 15th and final installment of ‘Legends of Windemere’ is about closure, finding the strength to carry on, and not pulling any punches. One of my favorite parts of this book is that the champions and Baron Kernaghan get to interact. Previously, he has been sealed away in his prison and could only work through his agents or the occasional spying spell. With this meeting, the readers get much more insight into this villain and find out why he has been feared this whole time. So, I do look at this book as being a showcase for the main villain, especially since the heroes are still considered the underdogs. While they are powerful, the Baron used to be a god and has been increasing his power over centuries instead of a few years. Add in that the champions have been told that at least one of them will die and some of them are going into battle with a little doubt. That gets even worse when the final secrets of the champion prophecy are revealed, which means the heroes will suffer until the very end.
