Destiny of Light (Quirk of Destiny, #3)Destiny of Light by Catherine Greenall
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Greenall has done it again! This series finale was amazing! It is highly recommended to read the previous two books in the series before venturing into the last one. The experience of this epic, post apocalyptic, dystopian mixed in with great characters is worth the previous reads to get the full experience and get insight where the story has been. One thing I did enjoy throughout the series are the parallels of environmentalism and politics within our modern world and how the scope of things in their eyes. As Calum and his allies keep fighting for the chance to decide their own fate and live in the self-sustained, people centered future. “Genies” are ones who want to enforce their perspective of change and have others follow their path. Many societies face the struggle of sustainability and power/wealth. Although this novel has elements of genies having special abilities, the fundamentalisms of their struggle is brought to light.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Destiny of light had an amazing world building. I felt the book was slow and it was hard for me to get into it. After half way in the book, I was able to get into the book and it was a page turner for me. I would say it’s slow at first but it does pick up after several chapters. It was a great read otherwise.

Wow! The author does not disappoint as she wraps up this series! Sci-fi meets religion. The characters are engaging, and the storyline moves at a believable pace. Who knows? Perhaps these events could really happen, and maybe they have already begun. I am sad to leave behind these characters- some of whom I had started to think of as my friends.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Calum O’Connell is back again, they are getting back to something like normal in Gallanvaig, they are back to their sustainable and simple way of life and thankful that they are still all together after having just overcome the last lot of hurdles which changed life as they knew it all over again, when the “Genies” came and caused havoc for their friends and families. This was as well as trying to keep out of harms way thanks to a dissonance in their lifestyles and those of others living in this apocalyptic world, where barriers were erected and had to be overcome by the small group.

While they were fighting for their lives, the “Genies” were growing in both strength and numbers, their powers increasing and becoming more and more deadly with each passing day as they continue to eat the genetically modified foods and recruit others to do the same and join their evil ranks. Another group were also fighting against them from the shadows, wanting to eliminate anyone standing in the way of their new world order, be they survivors or “Genies” and causing a restrictive way of life to be adopted by forcing everyone to obey.

Between the “Genies” and the shadowy Elite, Calum and his group are struggling to survive and avoid the pitfalls and hurdles placed into their path by those around them, but they still have hope that they can prevail with the help of others around the world, but with death and destruction all around them, can they really stop the forces of evil and convince everyone else to re-adopt their way of life, or will evil triumph after all and create a new world order thriving on violence and mistreatment? This is another informative and well researched glimpse into a possible future with apocalyptic consequences to current issues, written in a way which provokes conversations and debates while coupling it with a dystopian race against time, which is fraught with danger from everywhere all at once which you will not want to miss out on.

Return to Gallanvaig: Beyond A Quirk of DestinyReturn to Gallanvaig: Beyond A Quirk of Destiny by Catherine Greenall
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Calum O’Connell returns in this dystopian tale of how genetically modified (GM) food has caused an apocalyptic level event, which has wiped out most of the humans living on the planet, but not just that, some of the survivors have become altered at a genetic level. The not so affectionately named “Genies” have become something superhuman and have shown abilities beyond human, this is as well as becoming emotionally and physically unstable, they have been attacking, enslaving, or even killing people in their madness.

Since we last saw Calum, two years have passed since the first wave of this apocalypse occurred and life has somewhat settled down in the small coastal town of Gallanvaig, the group have been helping the world recover and creating guidelines to live by which are both sustainable and more natural, but nothing good can last and things are about to take a turn for the worse again and danger will come for this small community.

Meanwhile, the evil “Genie” leader, Balthazar has been growing in strength and developing his paranormal powers while planning his next wave of attacks against the GM free survivors who foiled his last one, but even though it is personal, there is a crucial element of survival which the “Genies” cannot seem to succeed at and this is his main goal, to find a way around it. There is also a shadow group who have been sowing the seeds of their own plans throughout the surviving colonies around the world, but they are more politically motivated, however, just as ruthless as Balthazar in their methods.

Will Calum and his band of survivors be able to stop Balthazar in his tracks again, while also entering a political battle on their other front? Will this battle between good and evil ever stop and a new normal created, or will the world return to how it was before the GM tragedy occurred? This is a dystopian sci-fi adventure which hits close to home, while also teaching lessons in an informative and creative way with plenty of twists, turns and action throughout to keep you hooked and wanting to know what happens in the end.

In the third and final installment of the Quirk of Destiny Trilogy the reader is immediately clued in on the protagonist, Calum, potentially loosing someone he loves dearly. Not just Calum, but the rest of the world loosing someone they love due to these environmental anomalies. This is a multiple point-of-view read as well, which did busy up the read a bit for me. Overall I enjoyed the concepts and themes that the author incorporated; the elite with their power, genetically modified foods to control the population, and what happens to humans when the world is ending.

This is the final book of the trilogy. It was just as great as the other two. With humans declining because of genetically modified food, the Genies step forward. They are a group that has special powers, but try to pass as normal humans. Calum does his best to help everyone that’s left recreate the world that they had lost. Can he save Earth and everyone else before it’s too late?

Destiny of Light: Final Book in Quirk of Destiny TrilogyDestiny of Light: Final Book in Quirk of Destiny Trilogy by Catherine Greenall
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Destiny of Light is the third, and final, book in the Quirk of Destiny series. It tells a dark story of the destruction and devastation caused by the introduction of genetically modified foods. This has caused humans to perish, animals to mutate, and the world be to left in an apocalyptic state. It continues the story from books one and two and builds on them, so I highly recommend reading those books first or the story will be hard to follow.

Scientist Calum continues to struggle to survive along with a few others as the devastation unfolds around the world. Divided into small groups they attempt to survive on their own while building a sustainable lifestyle and growing their own food. Around the world death and destruction unfold as the human race is being killed off at an alarming rate. Having contaminated drinking water was one of their biggest concerns until animals started to mutate into pre-historic, blood-thirsty beasts. The world is in total chaos as the Genies with their paranormal powers, and the dark and sinister Elite, battle to take over the world. Will Calum and his friends have what it takes to survive death and destruction of biblical proportions?

This book started off with a bang and was fast paced throughout. The author takes the reader into a journey where the world has been ravaged and destroyed by the introduction of genetically modified foods. A world in which mutants are taking over, water is contaminated, and food is scarce. A world in which the human population is dying off at alarming rates. This book is full of action, suspense, mystery, tension, death, destruction, and mutants. It is good versus evil on a grand, no-holds barred, fight to the finish. A haunting tale of the very real possibilities of a future where genetically modified foods have been allowed to take over the world’s food supply.

Destiny of Light (Quirk of Destiny, #3)Destiny of Light by Catherine Greenall
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the third and final book in the Quirk of Destiny Trilogy. This story has been a great read from the first book to the last. The author writes in a way that makes the events of the story scarily realistic which as a reader definately makes you worry and think about what you would do if you were in this situation.
In this story we have Genies who are evil trying to destroy the world, the Elites who have magical powers and the remaining human survivors trying to survive day to day.
I would definately recommend reading these books in order to fully appreciate the story. This final installment is just as action packed as the other two with everyone fighting for survival. There is a strong theme of good vs evil running through this story and we finally get to understand who the Elite people are and what role they played in the contamination to the world’s food supply.
As Calum and the fellow survivors try to find other people like themselves they have barriers placed in their way from both the Elite( powerful and evil people) and the Genies (people who were changed by the modified and corrupted food) neither of which want him to succeed. With so much loss that has happened in this post apocalyptic world can Calum and his fellow survivors continue to survive or will it just been too much for them as the Elite and Genies get stronger.

This story is action packed and full of danger. Can Calum and his friends uncover the conspiracies and stop the world being destroyed even more or are the powers they are against just too strong for them to overcome.
This is a great read which really gets you thinking about our currently life’s and how easy it would be to fall into a similar situation that Calum and his friends are in if the powers that be become too powerful for their own good.

Destiny of Light is the final book in the Quirk of Destiny Trilogy. Wow what a finale. I highly recommend reading this Trilogy in order as each book helps you learn more about the characters and what has been going on in each previous book leading up to this one. This is a Post Apocalyptic Dystopian Sci-Fi Thriller that is packed with action and so much more. The twists and turns had me turning the pages trying to figure out what was going to happen next. Get ready for the Ultimate showdown between Calum and his Allies as they battle the Genie Mutants and the Elite. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next.

This is the third book in the series. Each book builds on the last and continues the apocalyptic tale of devastation and destruction caused by the introduction of genetically modified food. This final instalment exposes the origins of the Genies and the powerful Elite. Mutation of the Earth’s gene pool continues with devastating results. There is the ultimate showdown between Calum O’Connell and his allies. They lead the final battle against the Genie mutants and the Elite, a shadowy group with world domination on their mind. This is a great dystopian novel with a twist that hasn’t been done yet. I highly recommend all three novels in the trilogy and add them to your TBR pile.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Destiny of Light is the third book in the Quirk of Destiny Trilogy. It’s definitely worth reading these books in order as the story jumps right in – you’ll need the previous books to get to know the characters and what’s going on!

This is a fast-paced dystopian sci-fi story. It explores themes such as power and privilege, science and ethics. It’s thought-provoking but also a gripping story that you will struggle to put down! It’s full of twists and turns. There’s also a great cast of characters, and you’ll easily find yourself rooting for Calum and his community as they struggle to survive.

The story is told in short chapters, changing between different settings and focal characters. Personally I prefer longer chapters that get me more immersed in the story, but this style suits a story where there’s a lot going on, and would be great for readers who find short chapters work better for them. I will say it’s good for reading on the subway – I could squeeze in a couple of chapters before my stop!

This book gets four starts from me. I’d recommend it to fans of apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic sci fi, but make sure you read the series from the start!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is the final piece of this trilogy, bringing the Quirk of Destiny storyline to an incredible conclusion.

If you haven’t read books 1 or 2, please do so because they are incredibly written. If this is the start of your journey with this series, you will not be disappointed.

As you may have gathered from the synopsis or the cover art, this is an apocalyptic tale for the ages. Genetically modified food is the source of destruction of human kind and triggers the mutated group called Genies to be born with powers beyond your imagination. Some immediately think the end of times is upon them as they are consumed by fear and the unknown reason for all of this.

The main characters fight to save their friends, family and fellow humans against the destruction and mayhem, which the author set up beautifully within this series. The Elite group within this series was very intriguing. Overall the content makes you think about how similar situations in real life could ultimately trigger catastrophic events here on earth, now or in the future. Perhaps things would not be quite like that which occurs in this series, but then again, you never know.

I believe the author’s background helped create a landscape and qualities that someone else would have missed out on. She has a true gift when providing descriptive and passionate dialogue making the reader feel as if they are truly a part of the story.

Phenomenal conclusion to this series! Kudos to the author. I cannot wait to see what else she has in store for us readers in the future.

What a way to wrap up this series!! Catherine Greenall created a masterpiece in this trilogy and this last book just tied up all the ends so neatly…or did it??!?!

I do highly recommend reading these books in order. Each book builds on the previous and you’ll lose a lot of background if these are read out of order.

This book focuses on genetically modified foods, nuclear bombs, dinosaurs of various kinds, Genies, crazy politicians, and so much more!! Callum and his crew are on the hunt for others like them who are against all these GMOs and misuse of environmental resources. When political foes try to squash them, Callum and his crew have to make some life-altering decisions. Haven’t they already endured enough?

It’s hard for me to write an adequate review without accidentally throwing in spoilers so I’m just going to leave this at…..YOU NEED TO READ THIS SERIES!!!

The short chapters that pull you in asking for a bit more information. I highly recommend reading the first two books before jumping into The Destiny Of Light. Though I believe it could be read without them, it is always nice to know what has happened to get to this point. In this final book to the Quirk of Destiny series, you will follow Calum to see if he and his friends can survive the end of the world and the creatures that haunt them. A good quick series to read on a cold day.

Catherine Greenall creates a shocking and thrilling conclusion to the Quirk of Destiny Series in this final installment, Destiny Of Light. I absolutely loved this apocalyptic tale and this book was the best one yet! Greenall creates an exciting and fast paced series that ups the Ante with each book and the fact that she was a government scientist makes her writing feel scarily accurate! She also writes in beautiful detail with dynamic characters that make her story feel all the more real! I love how this series really makes you think about what we are doing to our food and our planet and the repercussions it could have sooner rather than later! If you haven’t, I would suggest starting with book one A Quirk Of Destiny to be able to experience all of Calum’s story and the history of the Genies! I highly recommend this book to any dystopian apocalypse lover who wants a truly great and unique story that will have you questioning everything you think you know! Thank you for this series Catherine Greenall!

This is the third book and conclusion to this series. I highly suggest reading the previous two books before this one to help your enjoyment of this series as well as know where the characters come from and at present moment. I enjoyed how the characters pulled me into their world. A world full of action, enemies and fight for survival. I also enjoyed how creative the characters are as well as being strong and supportive. There is great growth of the plot throughout which makes the story easy to read. I found this book to be fast paced, engaging and hard to put down. A story where the characters add to the entertainment of the story. I really enjoyed this fantasy story and I highly recommend it.

She has flaming red hair. Little does everyone know that she is actually an immortal god who can bring an end to the plague that has taken over the earth.

The devastation of the world from genetically modified food is terrifying considering it is currently happening to our foods. The story is very well written and Mrs. Greenhall has a way of pulling you in, even if you haven’t read the other books in this series, which I had not read, I do recommend reading them though. I think I would have understood the characters stories much better if I had. This book is a wonderful blend of reality and sci-fi, and I throughly enjoyed it. I would give this book 3 stars only because I hadn’t read the others in the series which would have given me a better understanding of the characters. From now on I will be sure to read previous books if in a series. Mrs. Greenhall done an amazing job!

This author built an incredible fantasy world one that can really immerse you into the story and keep you flipping pages wanting to know more. More about the world, the characters, and what will happen. Her writing style really brought the world to life and made it believable; I think that was my favorite part.

Absolutely beautifully written and will definitely reread it in the future! Can’t wait to see what else she has in store.

~ The Finale in a Gripping Apocalyptic Trilogy~

I highly recommend starting from the first book and then reading the trilogy in order. It appears that the stories are meant to be read in order. If you try to pick up from the third book characters are not re-introduced along with their importance to other characters. The themes appear to be easier to pick up, but you won’t really be able to pick up on the clues intended to lead you to how the demise of the world began in the first place. Regardless, you will certainly enjoy the stories and watching Calum attempt to save the world.

In this final story you will be spun on a journey about Genetically modified foods, the fallout of the human race into tribes and villages, encounter lost people who may have come to care for deeply, leaving you constantly on edge.

There is a group of people known/identified as Genies, appearing to be normal humans in the midst of others, albeit wielding extreme power. Amongst them, or perhaps surrounding them, are a group of elitists that are somehow intermingled in a unique and powerful way. There has been a mutation of the human gene pool, and possibly others genetics have been altered as well, bending the fabric of reality as we know it. This educational sci-fi piece is very unique, and an interesting read.

Our hero Calum is doing his best to help everyone to survive and restore the Earth to a livable state, but the rate at which destruction is occurring is faster than he can overcome it. Read on through the end to discover the truth behind the mysteries surrounding his efforts. What you may find could be very surprising.

If you have ever wanted to read the post-apocalyptic genre, focused more on the sciences and challenges your way of thinking, you won’t be disappointed. This is the final installment of the series and I can definitely say you will be wanting to pick up the first two in the series if you haven’t read it already. …Now it’s up to us…

This is one of my favourite genres, so I went in already expecting to enjoy it, but I didn’t realise how much I’d love it! It has everything I love – romance, magic, supernatural creatures, danger and mystery.
There were many unique elements to the story and the author was able to create a vivid world with characters that felt real. When reading numerous scenes, I almost felt like I had stepped into the book to journey alongside the main character Zoe. In addition to the great world building, the writing flowed well which made reading this even more enjoyable.
Zoe is an intelligent and strong woman who has great character progression as she begins to question what she was taught to believe. She grows into her own person, and I was emotionally investing in her journey and how the relationships with her family and newer connections she made evolve over time.
If dark paranormal stories are your thing, I would certainly recommend this book.

4 Stars

 

Destiny of Light is the third and final book in the Quirk of Destiny Trilogy by Catherine Greenall. As with the rest of the trilogy, this is a gripping dystopian post-apocalyptic thriller with sci-fi elements, action, danger, agendas, good vs evil, GM messages, sinister foes, twists, and plenty of dramatic developments.
As I said with the other instalments, Ms. Greenall cleverly weaves a dynamic, detailed, and incredibly descriptive saga, managing to pack so much tension, intrigue, and thrilling detail into the story. Each book builds onto what has come before- painting a ‘bigger’, more dramatic and yet truly believable picture. As I have said before, I can definitely see this trilogy making a great dystopian movie or TV series.
As each book builds on from the previous, I really recommend reading the first two books before starting on this final instalment, as there is a lot of important plot information, character details, and backstory there that you should know in order to fully understand and appreciate this book.
If you love intense, post-apocalyptic stories with a highly original plot, environmental messages, believability, danger, and plenty of action- then this is definitely the book/series for you.
Looking forward to seeing what Ms. Greenall does next.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Catherine Greenall!

Destiny of Light (Quirk of Destiny, #3)Destiny of Light by Catherine Greenall
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Calum a scientist and his group of friends continue to resist the elite and the genies and trying to survive in a crazy post apocalyptic world… but it’s about to get so much worse and they haven’t seen anything yet
It’s hard not to delve into this story because it would be easy to give away what’s happening but the absolute devastation of a world started with genetically modified food is a clash of real world science and Sci-Fi which is absolutely terrifying to read and this ending adding in the Paranormal really rounded out. The ending I didn’t really see coming right away and it was downright shocking. Will humanity survive the plague of genies and modified food and attacks from elites…
This final book is a must read.

Creatures of the Night by C.A. King – Review by Tara Johnson Barnes

Creatures of the NightCreatures of the Night by C.A. King
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When an unusual anomaly in outer space opened up portals it brought with it a black mist that covered the earth. It also brought something far more sinister and deadly when it brought monsters and war started across the human race. The war raged on for generations and the remaining humans grew up training to fight and kill demons and monsters. In this new world they survived by forming clans where they could better protect themselves.

Zoe always knew that she was different and did not see things like others. In this new world she was expected to possess magic and men were expected to be warriors. Zoe knew that magic was no good if you were unable to protect yourself, so she also wanted to be a warrior. Instead, she must obey society’s rules and is sent off to the academy to hone her magic.

When Zoe meets a demon, it changes her outlook on everything. She has always fought alongside her family battling the black mist, demons, and monsters and never questioned why they do so. When she falls in love with a demon she starts to questions the rules and all that she has been taught throughout her life. Zoe begins to realize that maybe all demons are not the same after all. She is faced with the difficult decision of choosing between love and her family and friends. No matter which choice she makes she will lose something or someone that she loves. What will Zoe’s heart decide is best for her?

This book was well written and the scenes were described so vividly that you feel like you are part of Zoe’s journey. The character of Zoe really grows and develops as the story unfolds. She is smart, strong, feisty, and a force to be reckoned with. When Zoe meets a demon she becomes conflicted about what she has been taught and must make a difficult decision. She craves love but will she choose it over her own family. What a gut-wrenching decision to have to make. A great Dystopian Fantasy read with love, romance, adventure, supernatural, magic, demons, and monsters.
