Age of Druids (The Druid’s Brooch Series #9) by Christy Nicholas – Review by Heather Lovelace

Age of Druids (Druid's Brooch #9)Age of Druids by Christy Nicholas
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Nicholas continues to enthrall with an amazingly detailed historical fantasy that feels far bigger than its page count. It sweeps you into its pages to live life with these characters and you find yourself transported to a land of fantasy you don’t wish to emerge from. It felt realistic and fantastic all at the same time.

My only complaint – that this series is coming to an end. Job well done, Ms. Nicholas. Thank you so much for these amazing stories!

4 out of 5 stars
This series has been amazing! I have been following along with this series since the beginning and I cannot believe we are here at the end. All good things must come to an end I suppose, but WHY? Age of Druids: Druids Brooch Series#9 by Christy Nicholas is a book that is full of romance, action, and danger. Clíodhna is a strong woman with a will of Iron. She has babies to protect and she is determined to do so. She is a fiery woman and when she has her back against the wall, she is determined to do what is necessary to save herself and her family, with or without the help of the beautiful stranger she met in the woods.
This book is amazing. I highly recommend this series and in book order.

Age of Druids (Druid's Brooch #9)Age of Druids by Christy Nicholas
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Age of Druids by Christy Nicholas is the ninth book in The Druid’s Brooch series. These can be read as standalone books and enjoyed but I think they are better in order. This book tells the story of Clíodhna. She doesn’t have an easy life with three children and a husband that has gone missing. Often tested to choose between improving her life and possibly giving up her children Clíodhna makes difficult decisions. It took me a bit to get into her character because of some of her choices, but I gradually understood what she was trying to accomplish. This is a wonderful book and series full of enchantment, mystery, and more. I am sad to see this series end but I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

I give Age of Druids: Druid’s Brooch Series: #9 by Christy Nicholas, 5 stars.

Every time I pick up one of these books, I am reminded just how good they are. You are immediately immersed into this magical tale that the author has woven. Clíodhna has many struggles in her life, and while this was set such a long time ago, the main issues she struggles with are still relevant today. I loved her as a main character, she be may favorite in the series. She is strong, independent, and does what she needs to for her family. But she is not the only character in this book. There are many others and they are all written so well — they feel so real.

Then there is the story itself. Such a rich story, full of detail and imagination although at the same time rooted in history of what really happened. The author has obviously done her research while adding her on spin on this tale. I thoroughly enjoyed this book as well as the whole series, and I highly recommend it to those who like strong characters and historical fiction with fantastic mixed in.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have followed The Druid’s Brooch Series by Christy Nicholas from the very beginning book. This is one series I never expected myself to fall so in love with, but once I started I couldn’t stop. I am sad that this is the conclusion to the series but looking forward to seeing what we will get next from Christy Nicholas.

This brings the story to a close perfectly and gives us so many things we need to fully understand the brooch aspect of the series the best. I think I really loved Cliodhna the most and her story the best because she was relatable and felt very realistic to me. I loved seeing how she dealt with situations that I as a mother could never fathom facing. I would say this is one series you won’t want to miss, although I do recommend starting at the very beginning before really reading this last one. This is one that will not want to be missed though so it will be time well spent.

Faerie’s Magic: a fae shifter romance (Seasons of the Fae Book 2) by Jessica Feyden – Review by Jennifer Wolbeck

Faerie's Magic (Seasons of the Fae Book 1)Faerie’s Magic by Jessica Feyden
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Faerie’s Magic has a lot of potential to be a great novel, not just another paranormal romance. The overarching plot is actually well done, and the worlds of the fae and the wolf shifters are pleasantly fleshed out and immersive. I also liked the magic system and I’m fascinated by the “inner wolf” that the shifters have. Is it just an inner voice like a conscience, or do shifters have dual personalities that shift beings when they switch between wolf and humanoid form?

If you enjoy a strong willed, hot tempered pair of love interests that have passionate, explicit sex, then you’ll enjoy this book. However, there were too many typos, awkward phrasings and confusing sentence structures for me to truly enjoy the story. I don’t mind a little bit of profanity, but Feyden’s writing is peppered with it. I also require more out of my romance stories than just fixations on “finding my mate”, which was the first half of the book, and “claiming my mate”, which was the second half of the book.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Christy Nicholas is a great author. She has written an amazing series. I have read every book so far and I have to admit that this is my favorite so far. One thing I admire about her storytelling is that I get pulled in right away. Her attention to detail keeps me wanting to read the story until I am done with it. Her characters are fully developed and easy to imagine. In this story, Cliodhna’s family is missing her husband. She meets a stranger outside her home. This stranger tells her that he will help her. He will help her with her talents. There are choices that are made some good and some bad. Will the bad choices be more? Can they cost her family? I highly recommend reading this story so you can read about Cliodhna’s story and family. To see which path she is going to take.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Age of Druids by Christy Nicholas is the ninth book in the Druids Brooch series. This series does not have to be read in order however I would definitely recommend it as I think you would miss a lot of the finer detail if you started from this book.
There are not many series that go on as long as this one, let alone would be able to hold my interest. And yet this book does it with ease as the author creates yet another interesting and unique story. I was immediately caught up in this story and found myself flying through the pages. Yet at the same time I wanted to stop and savour every page knowing that the series is coming to an end.
As much as I don’t want this series to end I am looking forward to seeing what is next for this author. It will be great to read something new and I am already looking forward to it.

4 Stars!!!!

Another journey into the past with the supernatural fae. I like how the author has chosen Ireland of old and brought all the fae lore into it. I like how the characters seem to just jump right off of the pages and into my mind. I could feel the tensions and the drama.

This story really ticks the historical boxes for me and also the supernatural ones. I like how the author touches on the beginnings of Christianity as they started to come into the pagan society. I love the addition of the fae and the fae world. I like how the characters go from one realm to the other and I like the complex relationship between the characters is played out. I find that it really adds to the story and keeps the reader engaged. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Faerie’s Magic is the second book in the Seasons of the Fae series.
The cover is magic all by itself! It puts a spell on you and you can’t resist getting the book. I don’t want to give the story away so I will simply say this – Faerie’s Magic is a wonderfully spun web of paranormal adventure, danger, magic, drama, and of course, romance. The world building and detail of the characters makes the story come to life.
I’m looking forward to reading the next book!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Age of Druids: Druid’s Brooch Series: by Christy Nicholas is the ninth book in this historical fantasy series. In this book Christy has woven many threads and pieces of the puzzled together from the other books to finally give us some much-needed answers, like just how the Brooch came to be. This story take place in early Ireland and a religious tug of war. As usual the story is well written, and I truly felt for these people and what they went through. It is easy to imagine the world Christy paints with her attention to detail and vividly descriptive storytelling.

Clíodhna finds herself torn between her own beliefs and those that are being forced upon her and her family. With a religious zealot at the helm nothing good can come of it. Throw in some Fae and magic and life becomes complicated.

I absolutely love to read about fae and shifters. When I read this book, Mira and Cadoc had this energy that I just wanted to keep reading. Cadoc, knowing what his wolf is telling him. Wondering if they will be able to save their kingdoms and be together as true mates.
This book has romance, shifters, fae, drama, steamy true love, and of course an exciting adventure that is just waiting for you to dive in.

Can not believe that this series is coming to an end. I think back to all the stories I can remember and it gets a little confusing along the way. I read them out of order and although each is a standalone I would highly recommend starting at the beginning.

This is not my chosen genre but found myself interested enough to complete each one, this one might have been my favorite of all of them and I think it’s because I could relate to Clíodhna more being a Mom and even though different time frames in history, I could feel the strength that she had to pull from to make some of the choices she was forced to make. I can’t imagine.

This was an awesome end to this series, and I do hope someday to go back and read them again from the start. This author’s ability to describe the scenes and the scenery many times had me feeling like I was there, and made me want to visit these places.

I can imagine if this is your chosen genre that this series would absolutely be sitting at the top. I can say that this author has an amazing way of telling a story and I will continue to follow her and her future writings.

I loved reading the book Age of Druids (The Druid’s Brooch Series #9) by Christy Nicholas. It is a story that includes action, danger, romance, and magic. It is a book that pulled me in from the very beginning. I enjoyed reading about the character of Clíodhna. She is a woman who has a love for her children and is discovering that she has talents and powers. What will happen when what she believes clashes with the new church? What does the future hold for Clíodhna? Read this book to find out. This is a story that had me turning pages to find out what was going to happen next. I grew to care about what happens to Clíodhna with each chapter that I read. The book is written in such a way that I deeply felt her emotions. She also shows herself to be intelligent, strong and determined when she needs to be. Other additional characters are introduced and while some work against Clíodhna, some help and assist her. The author writes in such detail that I felt like I was right there with the characters. Don’t miss out on a book that is exciting and entertaining. I wasn’t able to put it down until I read the last page. It is a story I would highly recommend reading.

This is a series I have enjoyed from the beginning. This is book nine, this series just keeps getting better and better. I enjoyed being pulled in right from the beginning. This author’s attention to details made the story feel realistic. I had no issues connecting with the characters as they bring the story to life. Cliodhna finds herself in the middle of a disagreement in her new church. From here her story takes off with meeting a stranger who helps her with her talents, making new friends and also makes some bad choices. These bad choices could leave her without her family or her happiness. Will she find something within her to face this danger? This is a story that is full of action with a lot happening. It was done in a manner that was easy to understand and I didn’t get lost. This made a great afternoon story which I highly recommend.

Wow is this the end? I have followed this series since the beginning, and it is not a genre I would usually pick up, but I can say I am fully invested in each story. I think the mix of romance, fantasy and ancient times really creates something that appealed to me, and Christy Nicholas is amazing at pulling these different aspects together. I really really love how in this last book we get to see the conception of the brooch, and see who was the first ever in the family to receive it. In the beginning I was kind of iffy on my feelings for Cliodhna, I felt she was just jumping from one man to the next, whoever would have her, but then saw how she really was in love with Adhna. Their relationship is bumpy, and my heart broke many times for Cliodhna when it came to her kids. I can’t give anything away but thinking that her as a mother would have to make the choices she does regarding her children is devastating. It seems she is just dealt one blow after the next once having to relocate to the fae world. Then we have the crazy Bodach who will stop at nothing to become king. There are also many small elements that really give the book that much more power in drawing you in. Overall a fantastic book, the series, each book can be read as a standalone but I would recommend reading in order.

Mira is a Fae princess and Cadoc is a wolf shifter. They are fated mates but have quite a few bumps in the road to overcome to truly have a happy ending. They Fae and the Shifters are sworn enemies which makes things harder. I love paranormal romances but this book felt rushed. It’s like the author wanted too many things to happen in one book. There wasn’t a nice flow to the story. One minute they love each other, the next paragraph they are arguing and trying to kill each other. I continually had to stop and reread sentences to figure out what happened. There was no build up to get to know the main characters therefore I felt no connection to them. My favourite character was Cashiel who happened to be a secondary character and wasn’t in the story enough as far as I was concerned. The premise of the story is good and must have been excellent in the mind of the author. There was just trouble putting pen to paper.

Faerie’s Magic (Seasons of the Fae book 2) by Jessica Feyden, had a great story line. I loved the story. All kinds of magical creatures in this one with some unexpected powers. Strong characters and delightful world building. I did get a little bogged down with the family trees. There was quite a bit of repetitious dialogue which became somewhat distracting but all in all a good read. Reader be warned there are adult situations that are quite graphic, so this is not a book for the young.

I really liked this romantic fae fantasy story. The story is a fast pace simple love story. The pilot line is engaging. The characters are fully developed and well-liked. This story is about Mira and Cadoc. Like all romances. Mira and Cadoc had some hurdles in their relationship. Mira is a fae princess and Cadoc is a wolf shifter. Cadoc did not see himself with a Fae but his wolf-side was drawn to Mira. Mira’s magic has been messed with and she knows if she is to regain it she will have to marry to take the throne. Will Cadoc be her mate? Can Mira overcome her troubles with her magic? I highly recommend this story to find out these answers and to see if Cadoc and Mira become an item.

This was a great fantasy romance between a Faerie and a wolf shifer. Its a gripping story that keeps you hooked. The authors writing is so good at building the worlds and characters that you feel like you are part of it.

Mira is the Summer Fae princess.  As her time to ascend comes closer she needs to find her fated mate. However, her mother is liking the power of being Queen and doesn’t want to give that up any time soon. Knowing she hasn’t found her fated mate she has Mira’s magic bound.

Cadoc  is the Wolf King.  He goes searching for his fated mate and is surprised when it turns out she is Fae.

Can their love survive the fact that they are so different and sworn enemy’s? How far will the people they should be able to trust work against them to stop their love from growing? Can Cadoc and Mira work together to save both of their people.

This is the first book that I have read by this author and I have to say from the moment I saw it I absolutely knew I had to read it. The cover is so eye catching and enticing I just couldn’t wait to read the story hidden behind it.
For me this story was made entirely by the two main characters. They had so much stacked against them and yet will still so determined to fight. They were strong and interesting which made them great to read about. I enjoyed the book overall and the great story the author produced. A very good read and I can’t wait to explore more of her work.
