A War of Ruin and Reckoning

Season of the Elf (Fae Guardians, Book 9)

By: Lana Pecherczyk

Narrated by: Jack Calihan, Ramona Master

A reckoning is coming… but who will it hurt the most?

When environmental activist Nova Morales wakes thousands of years after a nuclear fallout, she is surrounded by magic, monsters, and war. The earth she fought to protect is in pieces, along with her heart. Everyone she loved is dead. All she wants is to find answers, but instead, she finds herself the unwilling prize in an Unseelie mate hunt.

Elf Guardian Leaf has always prioritized duty to the Well. His fate is his own, despite what the Prime and that insufferable psychic Clarke say about him being fated to a human from the old world. He doesn’t have time for love when a blight on their magic source has the enemy breathing down their necks. But when avoiding his duty throws him into the path of a beautiful war prize who claims they used to be lovers, he’s forced to question everything—even his memory.

The trouble with questions is they lead to answers better left buried. And as more painful secrets come to light, Leaf starts to wonder who the truth will ruin most—the Prime with her machinations, the unhinged Unseelie Queen and her war of vengeance, the crow shifter with a chip on his wings, the lost daughter of an ally… or Nova, the woman he’s falling in love with.

Book Nine in the Fae Guardians series features Leaf, the Cadre of Twelve team leader, and Nova Morales.

Definitely the book not to miss in this series

4.25 Stars 🌟

I seem to forget how much I enjoy this series when I am away from it for a while. It took me way too long to get back to it when I saw that the latest book had been released, and I am definitely sorry it took me so long.

With this book, we are finishing the story arc with the Elf's and it is time for Leaf to find his mate. Leaf is the leader of the cadre, second only to the Prime and he has been fighting this for over a decade. He has always felt that his main job needed to be finding a way to save the Well before it is too late.

We then get to meet Nova - Leaf's mate. She has just unfrozen recently but is a captive in a war camp when Leaf finds her. Nova has a VERY interesting back story and finally, ALL of the little strings and pieces of information that we have been given in the last 8 books FINALLY is tied together. Relationships are explained and things really start to make sense.

Lots of things happen in this book and we make some HUGE steps forward. But, as usual, with each step forward, there are other things that step up to cause more problems. Nero is not going to be defeated easily and it becomes apparent that he has been playing a VERY long game.

The next group up are the Crow Shifters, but I think there is going to be a spin off with the 6 - the Slouagh's. I can't wait to see what's going to happen next!

Best yet after Rush abd Clark's Story

I loved the way all the characters came together to save their world. I am looking forward to the rest of the story. l'm also interested in finding out if Willow will find her black haired stranger.

Amazing

I don’t want to spoil the story but it all makes sense! And I love this world Lana has made. Leaf and Nova I’m so glad they found each other. I want to know what happened to Cloud. is Aurora gone for good?😭 omg Willow and the sixth what the hell happened why did they do that to her at the end. I can’t wait to continue to read/listen to the rest of the stories that come out.

Good female lead

My favorite book of the series. I enjoyed nova the most of the female chart

What a thrill ride!

So glad I finally read this one!

I had been waiting for the audio book and I'm glad I did. These books are always wonderfully narrated and that gets me sucked in so quick! This time by Jack Calihan & Ramona Master. Just brilliant.

Also, I read this after reading Castles of Never and Nightmares and that probably wasn't the smartest as I felt kinda lost in that one. It was still great, but now after going back to see the "big battle" that gets referenced in that one. Well, here it is.

But Leaf and Nova were such an interesting pair. Seeing how past and present connected was so riveting. I was HOOKED.

I can't wait for the Season of the Crow and more from Willow and her Six.

I didn't see that coming

the surprising storyline and twists were exactly what this series needed...however, I could have gone without some of the antagonist storyline, felt like it was not so important to the storyline at this time.

nw what di I do

I came across this series recently and devoured all the books, that's how good it is. now I must wait for a new one to be f
released and I am just bereft. if you are into fantasy, fairy-tales, romance, a hfn with an oversized story arc listen to this series you won't be sorry.
