Ultima: Runes of Virtue - Gameboy Game (Retro Fam)

Sometimes, in a series, you get to a point in the story where you can just see where it's all going and you begin to lose interest. This book avoids the mid-series slump and completely blows it all out of the water. I feel like now I should go back and reread the first to just to see how I completely missed it all. This was so good. The relationships in this book took some major twists and turns and I loved where we ended up. I wont say more because I know someone out there is reading for spoilers and they ain't coming from me!

Audrey Grey has become one of my new favorites and this is why. This book tugged my heart in all kinds of directions, had me cheering and booing characters and threatening to slap a one in particular. I've been team-Stolas all along but never expected what happened in this book. This is a must-read series and I am anxiously waiting for the next book. Haven's powers were mistaken as belonging to her best friend, Bell, which led to him being kidnapped and an adventure that broke the dark curse hanging over their lands. But now they are stuck with their lie and it brings a new threat when Bell is drafted as a champion to compete in a tournament in the lands of a tyrant queen without Haven by his side. Defying every law has never been a problem for Haven but when she sneaks into the tournament to save Bell a chain of events is set into place that will change her new-found family forever. And the darkness they thought they had banished was child's play compared to what is coming.

So i have been patiently waiting for this next book in the series and did not expect the twist. I will say the first few chapters were a bit slower but it lead up well to the plot and back story with tiny reveals that kept me turning the pages till early morning hours. Now to find books to fill the time till November.
