Synopsis (Goodreads):

Thousands of years ago, the Ancients bestowed Nine Energies of Magic to a small group of humans known as Descendants. Now, at a time when Descendants have become widely feared, many of them choose a false sanctuary fighting for the evil King Zagan of Sharnin. With the Queen of Thurnadan poisoning her husband’s mind in a quest to prove her crown, the sudden threat of her kingdom falling to King Zagan has her in severe turmoil.

There is only one Descendant who could be the key to ending Zagan’s rampage of terror: Aurora, the scarlet haired Descendant foretold in an Ancient Prophecy, more powerful than ever thought possible.

‘Harmonies of War’ is a snapshot of the Temperate Lands. It is your guide to the series ‘Descendants of War’, which follows the Descendants’ daunting journey of survival. Will the evil side of magic completely wipe the Descendants off the face of the earth? Or can they find redemption? Follow them as they battle The Jinx, a disease like you’ve never imagined, discover a hidden reserve of blood, and face the curse of eternal life, as evil attempts to destroy them.

Make sure you hold on tight as the legends from thousands of years ago claw their way out of extinction and threaten to breathe fiery life once more.

Review:

I was given this book by the author in exchange for an honest review.

I was actually surprised by how much I enjoyed this book! The author paints an intriguing tale of magic, mystery, war and love that grips the reader!

The story centres around many characters, and is broken up into small sections so that we learn what’s happening to the many characters as the story professes. My favourite characters were Aurora and Silvia. Aurora is a Descendent, who has magical powers from the Ancients. When her school is massacred, she joins forces with the rulers of Thurnaden to stop the evil King Zagan from taking control of all the lands! Aurora is unlike any other Descendant, and is said to be the most powerful!

Sylvia is a strong woman character. She’s a soldier that has seen her village and family torn apart, and yet she continues to fight for what’s right! I really liked her character!

If you want to find out what happens to these intriguing characters, then you should pick up this book!

Happy reading!
