ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date March 15, 2022

Eve Erixour is a mercenary with a past no one would envy and more enemies than anyone should have. Death stalks her relentlessly. So when she gains the attention of a League assassin, she considers it par for the course.

But Jinx Shadowbourne isn’t after Eve. Someone has it in for him and his brethren. High-ranking assassins are falling, and Jinx is convinced one of their own is selling them out. He’s on the trail of his key suspect when fate throws him headfirst into Eve’s life.

Now the two of them have to find the League leak and plug it or neither one of them will live to face another enemy, and the ones they love, and the universe at large, will be left alone to face a power-crazed madman.

REVIEW:EVE OF DESTRUCTION is the first instalment in Sherrilyn Kenyon’s adult THE LEAGUE: EVE OF DESTRUCTION sci-if, fantasy series-a prequel novella series to the author’s THE LEAGUE. This is mercenary for hire Eve Erixour, and League assassin Jinx Shadowbourne’s story line. Eve is Jayne Erixour’s (BORN OF BLOOD) sister.

NOTE: EVE OF DESTRUCTION is a prequel to BORN OF BLOOD.

Told from third person perspective EVE OF DESTRUCTION takes place before the events of BORN OF NIGHT, book one in Sherrilyn’s THE LEAGUE series. Eve Erixour is a mercenary for hire and League assassin Jinx Shadowborne saves our heroine from an unanticipated attack. Hours later, Eve will discover a badly injured Jinx, and with the help of her friend Jedi, brings Jinx to her apartment in an effort to save his life. One glorious night spent with an injured League assassin finds Eve pining for a man she knows could be her death but with her sister Jayne locked away in a League prison for the sins of her father, Eve struggles with what could have been.

Meanwhile Jinx, embittered about the past, and hating his life with The League, finds himself the target of a League assassination order, and does one final act to help the woman he loves.

EVE OF DESTRUCTION is a fast paced, short story of insta-love; a novella that reveals some of the background, familiar characters and history before the events of THE LEAGUE. The character driven premise is revealing and enjoyable; the characters are captivating; the $ex scenes are intimate and enthusiastic.

Born of Vengeance by Sherrilyn Kenyon – a Review

 

Born of VengeanceAmazon / B&N / Kobo / BAM / Book Depository

Description:
A fate worse than death . . .

Bastien Cabarro survived the brutal slaughter of his entire family only to have his wife pin their murders on him. Made Ravin by The League, he is now a target for their assassins-in-training to hunt and kill. The average life expectancy for such beings is six weeks. But defying the odds is what this Gyron Force officer does best, and Bastien won’t rest until he lays his betrayers in their graves.

Ten years later, he has one chance to balance the scales of justice, provided he relies on his former wingman— the very sister of the woman who testified against him.

Major Ember Wyldestarrin joined the outlaw Tavali the day Kirovar fell into the hands of a tyrant, and she and her sister-team were left on an outpost to die under the barrage of enemy fire. The last thing she wants is to be involved in politics again. But the one thing she wants more than anything is revenge on the tyrant who murdered her parents and forced her and her sisters into exile. Carrying a secret she knows Bastien will annihilate her over, she must find some way to trust her former wingman before he catches on and kills her. Even so, treachery doesn’t come easy to a woman who took a loyalty oath to protect her homeworld and comrades-in-arms, especially when Bastien is much more to her than just a former wingman.

Yet as she tries to do right for her family, she learns that Bastien doesn’t just hold the key to the fate of Kirovar, he is vital to The Sentella-League war, and to The Tavali. If she doesn’t ensure he survives this mission, three nations fall, and time for all of them is quickly running out.

 

 

Review;

I’m going to start off by saying that Sherrilyn Kenyon is one of my all time favourite authors and I have enjoyed all her stories to date. However, I seem to have mixed feelings over Born of Vengeance.  After reading Born of Legend I was hyped and ready for the next installment as I become quite intrigued by Bastien, and the position we found him in, in previous books.  Now after reading Bastien’s story I can’t help but feel a little cheated.  I was expecting more present day situation/events surrounding Bastien and Ember, but I felt like we got more back tracking and repetitive scenes/history from Hauk and Jullien(Dagger)’s books.  When we do finally get up to speed and join the present everything happens so fast that before I knew it I had the book read.  I was like, ‘that’s it, it can’t be, I want more, there needs to be more’.  Don’t get me wrong I did enjoy the book, just wish there was more present day events.

Bastien is everything I hoped he would be and then some.  He’s a warrior who’s been to hell and back but somehow managed to hold onto his soul and humanity thanks to the love he still holds for Ember.  It’s that love that sustains him through his years as a Ravin, a criminal placed on the run by the League to be hunted and killed.  Bastien winds up seeking refuge on the planet Oksana where it plays havoc with communication and transmission devices.  He’s planned to hide out and wait out his Ravin sentence so that he can return to his planet Kirovar and seek revenge on Uncle Barnie as he likes to call him, and ex-wife Alura(Ember’s sister) over everything that’s happened to him.  Mind you, through all the back tracking/history of Bastien’s time on Oksana we do learn more about him; how he becomes friendly with the Sentella and is offered a position with them should he ever want one, we see more of his relationship with Jullien and his family, as well as how he becomes friends with Thraix and Trejan.  In hindsight I guess you can say the back tracking wasn’t all that bad, and did serve a purpose for when we reach present day.

Once we do reach present day and Bastien is gunning for revenge, events from here on in do move fast.  Bastien and Ember are reunited and have a common goal, Bastien learns he has a son with Ember, Florian, whom he loves instantly upon meeting the boy.  Absolutely loved this scene, it was perfectly written and the interaction between Bastien and his son is priceless.  In this scene we see the true Bastien come to the forefront, the man with a heart of gold, who will die before he sees any harm done to those he loves and holds dear. He may be a warrior honed in the fires of hell, but underneath it all, he’s just a cuddly teddy bear.  We also see this side of Bastien whenever he’s with Ember.  He loves her so deeply that there is no Bastien without Ember.  His love for her, and Ember’s love for Bastien flows off the pages and makes you root for them to finally get their HEA.  Bastien and Ember are solid characters who match each other in everyway which makes them perfect for one another.  Even her sisters adore him and welcome him back with open arms, which was another cute scene that makes you want Bastien to succeed all the more.  Another fun scene is when Bastien meets Trajen once he’s finally rid of his Ravin tracking device. Upon introduction via  Jullien he uses Bastien’s royal title, to which Bastien quickly lets him know ‘it’s just Bastien, or Bas, asshole if you must’.  Trajen’s response is priceless; “Aw god, there are two of you in this universe.” As he shakes his head and walks away muttering under his breath.  I was LOL, at poor Trajen at this point. 

Of course it wouldn’t be a Kenyon book without her rag tag band of unique characters.  It was nice to see many of our old and current favourites return, along with some newbies to help Bastien, Ember and her sisters out.  The interactions between these characters is ROTFL’ing moments where you can’t help but think ‘my goodness how have they survived this long’.  Their antics and actions are off the wall and completely insane at the best of times.  It’s no wonder they all get along and have formed friendships, they’re all a little kooky.  It’s one of the reasons I love Kenyon’s books, her characters crack me up. 

Another highlight of the book was the little bonus story/chapter after Born of Vengeance.  It centers on Nyk and Jullien so we get to see how they’ve may in roads to being more brotherly with each other.  Nyk is entrusting his eldest daughter to Jullien to be trained in the Tavali ways.  Loved the interactions between these two and then watching Jullien with Nyk’s kids is simply adorable.  It’s a lovely written chapter, one that leaves you wanting more from these two brothers.  Here’s hoping we get more of these bonus chapters, or maybe, hopefully Thia’s story being told in the near future, with more brotherly interactions. 

After writing up this review I’ve come to the conclusion that yes I did indeed enjoy Born of Vengeance, even though I had some issues with the back tracking/history lessons.  It was full of the ingredients I’ve come to find in a Kenyon book and has me wanting more as I wait for the next installment.  Guess that’s why she’s the author and not me 😉  For any Kenyon fan this is a good addition to the series, now bring  on Mack and Ryn!!

Until next time my fellow Menyons, happy reading!!

Born of Legend by Sherrilyn Kenyon – a Review

 

Born of LegendAmazon / Barnes & Noble / Kobo / BAM / The Book Depository

Description:
It is in the darkest hours of a universe’s past that their legends are born and their heroes rise…

No one knows exactly how much heart they have until their mettle is put to the hazard and they reach the lowest point of hell. There, they have only two choices. Lie down and die. Or find the strength to push themselves to their feet and fight back with everything they have.

In the words of Trajan Thaumarturgus:

Every great legend begins with one hero giving his finger to destiny and fate.

For those who have read Born of Betrayal, Dagger is the alias that is used by Ushara’s husband, and the father of the twins, who is on the run for his life. This is his story and shows how he became a member of the Tavali and what happens to them after Born of Betrayal ends.

“It’s official Take a Psycho to Work Day. Why else would I be here?”

Hunted. Hated. Betrayed. Dagger Ixur is on the run for his life. As one of the most recognizable members of his royal house, he has a bounty on his head that guarantees him no quarter from any friend or even family. But surrender isn’t in him. He will fight to the bitter end. A resolve that is sorely tested when he narrowly escapes a trap that leaves him severely wounded. With what he believes is his dying breath, he saves a boy born to an extinct race from a group out to enslave the kid for his legendary abilities.

Ushara Altaan has spent her entire life hating those born to nobility. After all, it was a royal house that drove her entire species into virtual extinction. As a rare Andarion Fyreblood, she is sworn to end the existence of any royal she finds. But when Dagger saves her son’s life, she is torn between her people and a debt that can never be repaid.

Yet worse than Dagger’s family that’s still out to end hers, are the League assassins after him who will stop at nothing to claim the lives of her Tavali family. The only hope she has to save them all is to put their future and her faith into the hands of  the very enemy whose grandmother personally extinguished Ushara’s legendary lineage. But how can she ever trust Dagger when he is a disinherited outlaw whose real name is synonymous with betrayal?

The story behind the story;

While writing Born of Betrayal, this was one of those characters and stories that grabbed a hold of me and threw me to the ground and said, “Hey, Sherri, you HAVE to tell my story. It’s time.” I fought it. I denied it. But in the end, I lost. The hero ripped my heart out and made me feel for him. Most of all, he made me root for him. It answers a lot of questions and I am so glad I lost my battle and gave in.

 

Review;

I for one couldn’t be happier that Ms. Kenyon lost that battle and wrote Jullien’s story.  I absolutely loved Born of Legend by Sherrilyn Kenyon and am so sad the book had to end it was that good.  Honestly I don’t where to start with this review because so much happened.  We learn everything about Jullien and why at first he’s a character we can’t stand and want to see dead, but by the first quarter of the book, I was falling fast for Jullien and didn’t want him dead.  In fact I too was rooting from him just like Ms. Kenyon was and I couldn’t be happier that he got a HEA. 

Jullien’s story is once again a gut wrenching emotional read, as Ms. Kenyon herself said, “the hero ripped my heart out and made me feel for him”, I echo those sentiments and then some.  How Ms. Kenyon manages to write such emotional stories that can rip our hearts out one minute, then in the next breath we’re howling with laughter over the dry wit and humour that our characters possess is mind boggling.  If it wasn’t for the dry wit, superior sarcasm and plain old Kenyon humour in this one I think my eyes would be permanently red and puffy over the tears I spilled while reading about the hell Jullien lived in.  How he managed to survive as long as he did, first with his family(who deserve a beat down for their treatment of him), and then on the run is beyond me, but he does and manages to wind up meeting the one person who could pull him out of the hell he’s been living in, his Darling Star Ushara.   Absolutely loved her character and am glad she’s Jullien’s mate.  Ms. Kenyon couldn’t have picked a better female for him. She alone manages to reach the part of Jullien he’s buried deep down inside himself so as not to hurt any more then he already does.  She brings him out of the dark and back in to the light and living, letting him see he’s someone special. She makes him see that what has happened to him all this time isn’t his fault, but of those who were suppose to be there for him and protect him, his family.  She teaches him what family truly means and gives him two things he never imagined he’d have; a loving family, and friends who will lay down their lives for him no matter what.

Jullien and Ushara have got to be one the cutest and memorable couples Kenyon has created, at least that’s how I feel right now.  Their love for each other is soul deep and pours off the pages.  It’s a beautifully crafted, yet emotional love story about finding your soul mate, learning to love, trust someone fully, and putting your life in their hands.  Every moment spent with Jullien and Ushara is adorable, sweet and just down right funny at times.  I love so many of their scenes together that I can’t list them all, but two that are most memorable are; the first time they make love and she teaches him what it means to really make love, and the birth of their daughters. Both grabbed me by the heart and wouldn’t let got.  Well done Ms. Kenyon, well done.

In Born of Legend we also are treated to learning about what it means to be Tavali and how the Tavali came to be.  We also get to meet a slew of other characters who helped advance the story and bring more depth to it.  I absolutely loved Ushara’s brother Davel, her best friend and boss Trajen another Trisani, and his friend Thraix, also Trisani.  These characters along with Jullien provided most of the much needed humour with their sarcasm and dry wit to balance out the raw emotion in this one. They definitely kept me in stiches numerous times.

Just when I think Ms. Kenyon can’t make the next League installment better then the last one, she goes and proves me wrong.  Born of Legend is a well crafted and thought out story that pulls the reader in and never lets you out.  It will tug at your heartstrings and have you hoping mad over the injustice done to an innocent for no other reason then being born a hybrid.  Ushara and Jullien’s romance will have you crying tears of happiness, and the rest of the cast of characters will have you howling with laughter as well. The action and drama in this one will have you sitting on the edge of your seat and chewing your fingernails.  For any Kenyon fan this is a must read.

Until next time my fellow Menyons, happy reading!

Born of Betrayal by Sherrilyn Kenyon – a Review

 

Born of BetrayalAmazon / Barnes & Noble / Kobo / BAM / The Book Depository

Description:
Years ago, family loyalty caused Fain Hauk to give up everything he loved: His military career. His planet. His fiancée. Even his name.

Now decades later, everything has changed. He’s built a new life out of the ashes of his old, and he’s vowed to never let anything threaten his loved ones again.

But when old enemies align themselves with new ones, he’s caught in the middle of a brutal war. And when fate throws his former fiancée back into his world and she has her own agenda that includes taking his head for what he did to her years ago, more than just his life is at stake. The fate of the Ichidian universe and that of his brothers-in-arms hangs in the balance. Winner take all.

It’s kill or be killed, and never has the battle been more fierce…

Or more fun.

 

Review:

Holy Hanna, what a book!! The last line of the book synopsis couldn’t be more fitting. The battles in this one were fierce and at times deadly, you didn’t know who your could trust or not trust, but it was also a lot of fun to read. I absolutely loved Born of Betrayal. Finally learning about what happened to Fain and Galene all those years ago was worth the wait. What a story they had to tell, and I was on the edge of my seat every moment along the way.   Born of Betrayal had more twists/turns, ups/downs and surprises in it then a rollercoaster ride at Disneyland. I can’t count the times Ms. Kenyon managed to tie me up in knots over events and some of her surprises that took place in this book. Now when I say surprises, you’d think it be fun and happy right? Nooooo, she pulled some mean surprises on me, to the point where I couldn’t stop reading till I found out if it were true, or Ms. Kenyon was yanking my chain. I didn’t think I’d ever be able to untangle my nerves again after reading this one. Ms. Kenyon should have put a warning label on this book: “Warning, be prepared to be a nervous wreck, wanting to pull your hair out, feeling like you’ve been put through hell while crying your heart out!” That pretty much sums up my emotional journey as I read Born of Betrayal.

Speaking of the twists and surprises, I can’t elaborate on any of it or I’d spoil too much of the book and I hate spoiling plot line for people. Plus, if I did elaborate, you wouldn’t be able to enjoy the emotional journey that I experienced…evil laughter echo’s throughout our forum, LOL!! I’d hate for you not to experience all that is Fain and Galene’s story. Even though I did feel like I was being tormented at times while reading this one, there were also a lot of bright spots in Born of Betrayal. Thanks to Kenyon’s sick sense of humour and spot on sarcasm with her characters and their unique personalities. I especially enjoyed the courting scenes between Fain and Galene with their grown son Talyn as their chaperone. Poor Fain, and what his son put him through in this one. We met Talyn and learned his story in the previous installment Born of Defiance. The dynamics between Fain and his son were interesting to watch unfold. They went from barely speaking to each other, to having one of the best reunion/acceptance scenes I’ve ever read. Let me tell you, that scene was so touching and heart-wrenching to read that I had tears tracking down my face, and it’s a scene that will stay with me for a while yet.   Beautifully written, well done Ms. Kenyon. Another lovely and well written scene was Felicia and Talyn’s Unification(a wedding as we know them). It was emotional but in a good way, and seeing Fain’s family reunited for that event filled my heart with joy for Fain, Talyn and Galene. After being apart for so long, they finally had a family moment they could treasure for the rest of their lives.

I absolutely loved every minute of Born of Betrayal. It was emotional, funny, serious, suspenseful, and deadly. I also enjoyed seeing past characters return to reunite, support each other and do battle with their enemies. This series has a great cast of characters and they each bring something special and unique to each book.   Ms. Kenyon didn’t leave a stone unturned in this one. She brought it full throttle and I can’t wait to read Born of Legend. Based on the tidbits I’ve read online for that one, and it’s main couple, we are in for a bumpy ride, filled with much of what I’ve come to expect from Sherrilyn Kenyon. The ending to Born of Betrayal left me with more questions then answers, and wanting more information then what I was given. I’m not happy I have to wait 7 months to get to the next installment and find out what happened where this one ended.

Until next time my fellow Menyons, happy reading!!!

Description:
Setting: Ichidian Universe

SPOILER ALERT If you haven’t read Born of Silence, there are spoilers contained below.

One of the fiercest soldiers the Phrixians have ever produced, Maris Sulle has been an outsider from the moment he was born different from the rest of his family. He grew up with a secret that cost him everything—his birthright, his family, and his military career. In all his life, he’s only had one love, and he has sacrificed his own happiness to see his best friend reunited with the woman he loves. But now that his good deed is done, he feels lost and adrift. Even though they do their best to include him in their new family, Maris is once again on the outside looking in.

Ture has spent his life hiding from everyone around him—his family, the world, you name it—while trying desperately to fit in. Badly hurt by everyone he’s ever known, he trusts no one except his own best friend. And honestly, he can’t understand why he trusts her. Nor can he believe her when she describes a loyalty between friends the likes of which he’s never seen.

But when Ture is in his darkest hour, he’s saved by a hero he thought only existed in novels. A man who is every bit as scarred and mistrusting as he is—one who has no interest in being dragged into another relationship with anyone.

Having spent his life as a living study of doomed relationships, Maris is well aware of the courtship and fiasco that invariably follows. Still, there is something about Ture he can’t resist. Something that won’t let him walk away when he knows he should.

But when old enemies return to threaten them both, they either have to stand together or die alone.

 

Review;

All I can say is Sherrilyn Kenyon is forever amazing me with her writing and storytelling ability.  I absolutely loved Cloak and Silence and how she wrote this particular story.  You see, this is the first time I’ve ever read a story where the two main characters are male, and wasn’t sure what to expect from her with this one.  I shouldn’t have worried, because true to her nature, she wrote a beautiful story and had me hooked like a fish on a line after the first chapter. 

We previously meet Maris and Ture in Born of Silence, and it was from that point I was intrigued by them. Even though Maris and Ture had limited scenes together in that one, you saw something brewing there and by the end of the book it appeared they were together.  From that point on I wondered if we’d see more of them in their own book, or just as secondary characters in a future book.  I’m really glad Ms. Kenyon decided to listen to her fans and write this one.  She did an amazing job as the story just flowed from beginning to end.  The emotions between not only Maris and Ture, but also between friends, and the love and romance that takes place is very convincing and believable.  It’s no wonder I love this author, you feel and see the love she has for her characters in the way she writes their story.  

In Cloak and Silence, Ms. Kenyon does a wonderful job writing both Maris and Ture’s characters.  She wrote this story with dignity and class, and made my heart break for the cruelty shown towards both Maris and Ture for their sexual  orientation. She never once sugar coated anything, but instead gave us the reality of what their lives were like and will continue to be like.  I enjoyed the slow buildup to the romance between Maris and Ture.  Both had reservations because of their backgrounds but truly liked the other and knew they wanted each other.  Their interactions are funny and sweet at times, while other times are very serious and heartfelt.  She created a wonderful balance within their relationship.

Another aspect of the book I liked was seeing the friendships Maris has with past characters and how he brings Ture into that circle of friends.  This group of friends has a bond that is unbreakable and we see it in how they come together to help each other out no matter what. They would lay down their lives for one another no questions asked, and now Ture is part of that family. They may not be family by blood, but they are family none the less.  Ms. Kenyon has a knack for writing these kinds of friendships and relationships in all of her series.  It’s these moments in her stories that either have me howling with laughter, gasping in shock or screaming in outrage over whatever is going on.  In Cloak and Silence it wasn’t any different. There were many times she had me near tears over heartbreaking conversations, or in fits of laughter over the shenanigans taking place.  Never a dull moment in one of Kenyon’s books.

One final aspect I enjoyed in Cloak and Silence was finally learning more about Maris’ species, the Phrixians.  It was interesting to learn that they are amphibious by nature and shift appearances in water.  I loved the scene where Ture first sees Maris in his true form.  Maris expects revulsion and disgust to show in Ture’s gaze, but instead he’s floored to see wonder and acceptance.  The way Maris and Ture accept the other for who and what they are is wonderful to see.  Too many times society judges people by their differences.  It was a breath of fresh air to see how Maris and Ture are accepted by their friends and ‘true family’ no mater there differences. We get to see just how tight these friends are when Darling has a heart to heart with Maris towards the end of the book, when Darling realizes Maris is afraid of what he has with Ture.  The conversation that takes place is touching, real and you feel Darlings words to Maris deep down in your heart.  Ms. Kenyon definitely has a way with words and knows just the correct way to phrase them to evoke the most emotion out of her readers. 

Cloak and Silence was brilliantly written. If you enjoy a quick read filled with emotion, laughter and tears and of course danger then this one’s for you.  Kenyon truly out does her self with this one. She takes two characters who believe they are destined to be alone for the rest of their lives, constantly battling against the world, only to find each other and see that maybe they can have it all. With the help of their friends, against all odds, they are able to survive the battles that come at them and make it out the other end.  The emotion, conversations and romance is this book are real and heartfelt and like I said earlier, hook the reader like a fish on a line.  You can’t help but cheer on Maris and Ture and want to jump into the battle yourself and dish out a little beat down to the League Assassins who are gunning for Maris.  The fight scene in the end is well written and kept me on the edge of my seat every step of the way.  I enjoyed this book from beginning to end and was sad when I got to the last page. I wanted Maris and Ture’s story to continue.  My fingers are crossed that I see more of this amazing couple in the next League book Born of Fury which is Hauk’s book.  If the little snippet at the end of Cloak and Silence is any indication about what to expect, all I can say is we will be in for one bumpy and crazy ride with Hauk.

Until next time, happy reading
