After all this time and exams had passed I had months to read the series and boy did i, it took me less than a week (one book a day) and then I re-read it and then I re-read it again. Drew wakes up from a dream about his mother to find that he was in the Maelstrom in a bed, blankets and quilts holding him in one place. In the room, Gretchen curled In a leather armchair exhausted but sleeping and to her side was Hector a book open at his lap with him asleep and snoring. Every werelord can (or can learn to) transform at will into a Huge animal. The type of animal is determined by the paternal line. Elite Mooks: The Lionguard, especially the Bastians, who are considered far more experienced and combat ready than their Lyssian counterparts. September 8, 2021) Acclaimed author Ben Percy and superstar artist Francesco Francavilla have collaborated on WEREWORLD, a new illustrated novella about a year of increasing terror in a small Minnesota town. The supernatural novella will be published by digital publisher NeoText this fall.

Combat Pragmatist: Drew throws sand into Duke Manfred's face while training at the start of Book 2 and gets chastised for it. However, this doesn't stop him throwing hot coal into Djogo's face later, among other things. Hector the Wereboar, Vega the Sharklord and Werestag Manfred are fleeing from the Catlords, aboard the notorious pirate ship Maelstrom. But as the spirits haunting Hector grow stronger, he is left wondering whether the true enemy is closer than they thought…serious and mature character. This event is Drew witnessing his mom die in front of him. An interesting thing that I learned in this story was that sometimes its okay to give up, especially when your surrounded by a vicious horde of werewolves.

Suddenly, Leopold shifts into the Lion and throws the soldiers off him. Drew unleashed the Wolf and engages Leopold in a fierce battle. Despite being stronger, Drew starts to lose when Duke Bergan, Duke Manfred and Count Vega intervene, the former two in their beast forms. They gave Leopold a choice to leave or die. Heinous Hyena: Lady Hayfa the Werehyena, who has fought against King Faisal for control of Omir for years. The story-telling is brilliant! It is a third-person point of view but following Drew. Not only will you be hooked from the beginning, but you will let yourself guide through the story by Drew's voice. I always have the nasty habit of guessing the end of a book before it happens and even though I knew where the story was going, I kept being surprised at all the characters coming up along the story and the different plot points. It has been one wonderful ride and I won't be forgetting this adventure anytime soon. To tell you the truth, I read this book three weeks ago and have read a dozen in-between and all I can think about are werecreatures. I have a love for shape-shifters in general, but I have really fallen for this story. Upon his absence, Leopold came forward and took over the relatively undefended country (defeating the lingering Duke Bergan in the process), kidnapping Wergar's family and telling Bergan that they would only be safe if Wergar were to surrender the throne and go into exile. Bergan relays the message to the weary Wergar upon his return, his pleas bolstered by others (Baron Huth, being a scholar as well as a magister, also exploited his superstitious nature). Fragile Speedster: Fitting for a cheetah, Lord Chollo is old and fragile-looking, but incredibly fast and agile, capable of taking down another werelord with ease if given the chance.Outliving One's Offspring: Duke Manfred outlives his youngest son Milo, while Duke Brand losses his son Dorn. Even worse, Duke Bergan outlives both his children. And, while story might sound and feel a bit cliched, which leads to some predictable moments, there were still some stuff that were just OMFGWHATJUSTHAPPENED style and i loved it because it was just....dunno..interesting (i loved it anyway).
