Another excellent addition to this series! My heart was so broken for Julia with the way everyone is treating her. The way she copes just tears me up, I get why they are mad but also I think they are afraid of what they don’t know. A blast from the past shows up and turns everyone’s world upside down. Relationships mend, and tear apart again, Julia just seems to be thrown left and right. Her and Samual, I know have something between them if they would just talk, I’m so tired of Julia holding everything in and taking everything on her shoulders alone. Bring on the next one!

Another great book! This series is wonderful so far. This book broke my heart and made me smile. I am devastated to learn of the group’s losses, but Samuel and Julia become closer and that somewhat makes up for it. This book is set 70 years after Julia first gets turned, I know the timeline of vampires is vast, it really was a bummer to realize that Julia had been without her daughter for that long. Valentino is getting closer to Samuel and his group of resistance and is intent on getting to Julia, to have her join his side. Julie makes terrible decisions, and the way she talks, keeps things from Samuel and tries to handle everything on her own really gets to me. I am hoping for something different from her in the next book

Wow! I feel like this book falls under the old adage “never judge a book by its cover”. This book blew me away, the story is so well written and just gut punched me. I am just devastated about Julia being married to Greg and all that she endures. I didn’t think there would be any way out for her until Samuel. Their journey, together with the rest of the group and Adam is rough, wondering if Julia will ever be able to tell Adam about her time married, or if her and Samuel have something between them.

Gripping paranormal adventure Another great instalment to the War of Destiny series. Book 5 has Julia harnessing her powers in a race against time. This is one series you will want to read from the start as each book flows seamlessly into the next leading to the ultimate climax of events. The author knows her craft and wields it just right to bring well developed characters and magnificent imagery to life. Action, suspense and unexpected twists will have you turning the pages well into the night. Highly recommend.

Soul Redeemed is Book Five in the War of Destiny Series. Each book builds upon the one prior so I recommend reading the first four books in the series first. It will also introduce you to each of the characters and give you their background and story. This is a fast-paced paranormal story full of action, suspense, danger, intrigue, vampires, and twists and turns that will keep you reading to the end. The characters are beautifully written, diverse, and complex. Julia is the MC, and this book focuses on her POV as she struggles through her journey of becoming a vampire. She is strong, smart, determined and we have watched her grow and mature through each of the books. Julia’s journey has left her with feelings of regret, and she struggles with self-harm behavior. This is heart wrenching to read, and you want to reach out and give her a hug. The author has done a great job of world building and creating vivid scenes that immerse you fully into the story alongside the characters. As their journey continues the stakes are even higher for the characters and they are in a race against time. I highly recommend this vampire paranormal series that will grab your attention from the first book and keep you reading to the end.

Soul Redeemed is the fifth book in the War of Destiny series by Theresa Van Spankeren. As each book in this series builds on what has come previously, I highly recommend reading the first four books before starting on this one, because they all come together to creating a ‘bigger picture’, not to mention they are all great reads, providing hours of entertaining adventure to plunge into. This is an original, clever and intriguing paranormal saga with vampires, action, adventure, high stakes, politics, agendas, atmospheric world building, danger, intrigue, tense developments, violence, and plenty of suspense. I am really enjoying this adventure- and Ms. Van Spankeren raises the stakes here for us, and the characters- bringing even more tension, dramatic developments, and intrigue- in a high-stakes race against time which kept me glued to the pages to find out how everything would play out in the end. Can’t wait to see what Ms. Van Spankeren has in store for us next! Happy Reading!

This is another winner in the series. Julia is still working through her issues and now she has to figure out how to work her talents and other items. The writing is strong. The characters are each so unique and I love how they are, because they come from different units and somehow mesh well together even with some mistrust. Julia is strong and has come through so much. I love how she has grown throw the series. The storyline is interesting and grabs you. This really isn’t meant to be a standalone as you may be lost if you try. This author does such a terrific job with her books that you just can’t put them down.

This book is the fifth book in a series. Like the others in this series, I would not read as a stand alone book or out of order. That being said, I have read all five books and loved this book and the entire series! This book centers around Julia and her point of view. I think as a female character, I liked her struggle to give voice to her feelings and to allow herself to grieve. I think many women can relate to those issues. There was a character in the last two books, Lane. I actually missed him in this book. But, I enjoyed the continuation of the characters and that their struggles that don’t just magically end by becoming a vampire. There is an aspect of self harm for Julia, that some readers may need to know about before reading. I also felt her struggle to stop the self harm behaviors is accurate and relatable. I loved the book. I love the series. It is a fantastic read and well worth the time!

Theresa continues to impress me with this original high stake’s series. Soul Redeemed is another unique continuation and the fifth book in the War of Destiny series. Make sure you start with Lost Souls book one in this epic series and work your way through each one as the build on from each other. Get ready to devour this dark vampiric paranormal fantasy story. The characters are well written have depth and well developed. Theresa’s world building is skilfully built and carefully crafted. The plot is fast-paced and is as gripping as it is engaging. It is a multilayered tale full of action, tension, intense danger, intrigue, imagination and twist and turns that you will find hard to put this book down. Once again, the vividness allows the reader to enjoy every nuance of Theresa’s storytelling. Soul Redeemed is built a solid foundation that has been skilfully woven into an exciting story. I am not going to share the details because Theresa’s words need to be taken in like a fine wine to let you draw your own picture through your own imagination. You don’t want to miss out on this epic series.

This is a series that I have enjoyed reading from the start. This is the fifth book in the series which I highly suggest reading the previous books, it will help you enjoy this author and the characters as well. This is a well written story that took me on an adventure to the end. I enjoyed how the characters pulled me into their world. They are connectable and made the story entertaining to read. Julia is such a great character and is my favorite. You don’t want to miss what happens to her in this final installment of the series. There is great growth in the plot which makes the story easy to read. This is a fast paced fantasy story that is hard to put down. An engaging story where you have to find out what happens to Julia next. This is a really great story and series. I highly recommend this book and this author.

This is an interesting story full of magic and paranormal. Alongside Reign are the Morretti brothers and together they must work with and take care of Adam the human mage. Now they must fight the evil and save Italy. This is the second book in this series and it would be good to read the previous book to better understand and enjoy this book. I like the world that is being built in this series but I am having a hard time connecting with the characters, it was nice though to see the way everyone fights together against the evil. There are many different paranormal creatures in this world both good and evil. You never know what they might encounter next. The journey for those involved is not over yet and I am interested to know just what they will do next.

First time reader of this talented author, Carol McKibben. This is the 2nd Book The Silver Blood Knight series. I started this series on this book not realizing this was the second one lol. I ran to go get the first book after I finished reading this. It was a quick read but although it was short, man it was amazing. The world the author builds is so fantastic. It really draws you in and makes you believe you’re there. It has almost everything you’d want in a supernatural story. I can’t wait to finish the first book. If you’re looking for a good short series I highly recommend it. Ps i didnt know what a lich was until i looked it up. Then i remembered I’ve seen this creature on adventure time lmao

This is the second book in The Silver Blood Knight series, but I didn’t pay close enough attention and read this one first. I don’t feel like I was super lost, but I recommend picking up the first one as I’m sure it adds to an already marvelous plot. This was a great story full of paranormal beings and tons of suspense! This is a pretty quick read that will surely fit into an afternoon, but don’t be fooled by the length. Carol McKibben does an incredible job of giving the characters amazing depth in that short period of time, and you will be invested in every melodramatic move. I’m picking up the first in the series now to catch up!

Reign is a lycan/vampire hybrid who has visions, sometimes they’re set in the future, sometimes they’re happening in real time. The beginning of the novel starts with Reign having one of these visions. The vision consists of the president turning himself into a Lich. He sends his people to go make more and more until he has amassed an army of the undead.
Since the group has been appointed by God himself, they take it upon themselves to be the country’s protector. There is Reign, James who is a magic wielding hybrid, Adam (a teenaged clone who is also a mage) and 10 brothers who are all also lycan/vampire hybrids. All of their names start with a Z, which did make the beginning of the book a bit confusing when the author first introduces the characters but then I was quickly caught up by the descriptive writing of the author.
The group bands together to defeat the Lich and his undead army while other obstacles are thrown their way. Demons, sirens, Greek mythology creatures, even Anubis who is a part of Egyptian mythology. The odds are stacked against them but they are willing to sacrifice anything to save the world.
This is technically book 2 in the series but can be read as a stand-alone. The author did a great job introducing the characters and their background. Even though it is a relatively short book, it is chalk full of action. I could not put it down, read it in one sitting.
The book does a really good job of keeping you on the hook with an ending that will make you want to read the next installment!

This is the second book in The Silver Blood Series. I really loved this paranormal adventure story. I would recommend reading this series from the beginning as I didn’t and at first I felt a bit lost in the story. However I still really enjoyed it and I will be going back to read book 1 so I can enjoy it even more. The author does an amazing job of creating the characters and also the story itself. This story is action packed with dangers, and magic and so many magical beings. This is definately a story about good vs evil as Reign and his friends and warriors battle against all the evil beings that are threatening the world. Just when you think they have solved the problem something else immerges. The story twists and turns with danger coming from places you don’t expect. I really can’t wait to read more of this series.

The cover initially drew me to this book before even thinking about the blurb/synopsis, but when I did, I knew this was the book for me and immediately went to buy the first book without even reading its synopsis and I have no regrets.
The world that the author has been able to create in such a short book is incredible and I absolutely love how the mix of supernatural creatures, mythology and more all come together so nicely within it!
I got so lost in this book I did not put it down. The concept and plot are original – full of action, magic and good vs. Evil. The writing flows well and is easy to follow and really enjoyed the perspective in which the point of view was written. The mannerisms which many people writing this would have missed (e.g., the turning to settle down) in writing this just makes it all the more believable and immersive to me.
There are parts which make me believe another book is in the works and I really hope that is true because I need more!

Reign: The Rise of the Lich is the second book in The Silver Blood Knight Series. This paranormal vampire book starts off action-packed and continues throughout. The book is told from the point of view of a wolf which I felt was creative, brilliant, original, and immediately intrigued me into reading more.
It starts with the lycan/vampire/wolf, Reign, having a vision about the president of Italy being turned into a Lich. Although Reign is a lycan/vampire he chooses to remain in wolf form. The Moretti brothers are hybrids just like Reign with the strength of the lycans and the speed of a vampire. James is a hybrid with magical powers and Adam is a teenage human mage with powers. Reign, Adam, James, and the Moretti brothers have been anointed by God to act as his warriors. They set out to rid Rome of the Lich as they attempt to protect Earth from evil forces. Will they be able to survive?
This book was very well written with descriptive settings that made you feel as though you were there, amazing characters, and a great storyline. The author did a fantastic job with the creation of the hybrid characters, and how they band together to protect Earth from Evil. The small group of Heaven’s warriors band together to battle evil forces that are determined to destroy Earth. Resisting temptation along the way, the small group ward off mythological creatures, corrupt politicians, and hordes of undead warriors. I really enjoyed how the story was told from the point of view of a wolf. I have never read a book told from this point of view and felt it was a unique, out of the box, writing style. The story was action-packed from the first pages, and full of shapeshifters, magical powers, adventure, drama, suspense, and danger. Ultimately it tells the story of good versus evil as the warriors anointed by God in Heaven fight Hell on Earth created by a corrupt, evil politician. Looking forward to reading more by this author!

This is an enjoyable short story that really packs a lot into its pages. This is the second book in the series and I would highly recommend reading book 1 first so you get a full understanding of what is going. This is a great story and I enjoyed the unique take on shifters. It isn’t often an author can be original with this trope and it is even more rare for them to do it so well. I thought the characters fit really well with the book. They were interesting and all had their part to play. This really is a great book and definitely worth your time.

This book was amazing, it was so well written, the worlds and the characters were all so well written it felt like you could be right there in the story. I really liked the way the author did a mix of hybrid fantasy characters; I enjoy reading other people’s take on how vampires and werewolves are perceived. This story was very fast paced and packed with action with the battles that you will not want to put this book down till you are done. I however didn’t read the first book, but it was still easy to follow and know what was going on, but I can tell you I will be going back and reading the first one. I do believe I would understand a lot more if I started with book one, but it was still an amazing read and easy to follow and wasn’t that confusing. This book was very enjoyable, and I am happy I picked it up and can’t wait to know if there will be more from this author. Highly recommend this amazing book.

Immortality, hybrids and adventure This paranormal urban fantasy is the second book in The Silver Blood Knight series. I really enjoyed the characters, storyline and world building. Book 1 is definitely the place to start, as it provides a foundation for this book. There is so much between the pages from wizards and magic to vampires and shifter hybrids with action and mystery interwoven throughout. A great read. Recommend.

REIGN: The Rise of the Lich: The Silver Blood Knight by Carol McKibben is the second book in the series and it is a great vampire paranormal.
They are the only hope for Italy. All of Italy is in danger of being destroyed, and James, God’s chosen knight, a hybrid vampire wolf, a young wizard, and a few related Lycans are the only thing standing in the way.
Matisse, the corrupt politician, has spent years changing into a Lich. He now leads hordes of undead warriors across Italy, determined to destroy every living being in his way since he has the power to resurrect the dead.
Other mythological predators emerge with the intention of obliterating James and his comrades as Heaven’s small band battles to resist the Lich and his wicked warriors.
Every page was exciting and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen. It is a unique paranormal duology. The story brings passion into your life. I couldn’t put the book down. I had to binge-read the series.

Reign: The Rise of the Lich was well written. I do suggest reading the first book first or you will be confused. The world building and characters was well thought out! If you enjoy a good fantasy book, then this book is for you. I recently found a love for shifter books, but this one was different from what I’m used to. It was a great shifting book.

I have said before that I am not usually a fan of shorter stories BUT this one is so damn packed full I just have to shut my mouth. Story length in no way matters with this fantastic book. I unfortunately started this series on book 2 which I will be rectifying as soon as possible as well as exploring this amazing authors other books. How much she managed to pack into this book is truly amazing. It’s filled with such unique, wonderful characters and is such a creative storyline that you wont be able to put it down. You will want to see how this battle unfolds! I am hesitant to comment on the actual storyline itself because I just know I’ll give away something that I shouldn’t. Just do yourself a favour and get reading!!

This novel is well written, but I have to admit that I am confused by many things. I will definitely have to go back and read the first of the series to see what I have missed. That being said, I recommend picking up the first book then diving into the second. This novel is very short and took me a little over an hour to read from start to finish.
I would have liked more character development, but I could have missed most of that development from the first book. However, the storyline is so fun and entertaining. Overall, I recommend to any fantasy lover. Just make sure to read the first in the series then this one!

Dawnbreaker: The House of Blood and Sun, by Haldey Thorne, was a super good read! I love all stories about Fae, and also stories about vampires, but Dawnbreaker merged the worlds, with a lot of others that I did not expect. She detailed the worlds and the nuances between Fae, vampire court, and human world so vividly, but without losing my attention. (Which, admittedly, is hard for me to focus on during very in-depth detailed descriptions). I loved the way Hadley created the worlds and brought them together. I am very excited to keep up with this series!

This was the first book that I’ve read by this author. She did a great job. The characters were well written and the storyline was original. I look forward to reading more of this author.

This is actually the first break that I’ve read by this author. I somehow missed that it was the second in the series, however not reading the first one didn’t take away from this one. It was easy to grasp what was happening. The most intriguing part is that a few of the are hybrids. Vampires mixed with wolves. The story is very original and entertaining. I couldn’t put the book down. Definitely a great read for those who enjoy the fantasy genre.
