On Winds of Ruin
A friendship betrayed. An unfamiliar land. The winds of ruin blow.
Roisin is still reeling from events at the end of A Crown of Blood. She feels lost, broken and alone in the world. Torn with what to do next, Roisin chooses to make the fateful trip across the Skybinder border into enemy territory in the hopes of gaining new allies for the fight against the Soulmongers. At her side is her fox companion, Vulpo; the last of the Bloodsingers, Mei; and a Skybinder of questionable allegiance named Giack.
However, Roisin’s actions draw the attention of the Skybinder nobility, entrapping her into political machinations with deadly outcomes.
Piritta, newly reborn Soulmonger, is tasked with the search for the final member of the Soulmonger Triumvirate to lead the army to victory.
And Kaori, leader of the Soulmongers, is given her own task, granting her more power than she could have ever imagined.
The choices these young women must make will tear them apart, fracture them all, leaving cracks for something darker to seep in. And in the end, only the one with the strongest resolve will endure.
A shocking sequel about survival and the choices one must make to do so, On Winds of Ruin continues the adventure for Roisin and her friends as they face their greatest challenges yet.

I'm still biased on this one, being the author. But if the author can't get one free 5 star review, then who can.
This book was a tough nut to crack, but I am *so* proud of it.
I'm proud of the journey the characters go on.
I'm proud of the developments and worldbuilding.
I'm proud of the ending. And the beginning. And everything in the middle.
And that's not always the case.
I hope you love it.

4.25/⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
For a debut author and series, I’m so glad to say that “On Winds of Ruin” does not suffer any second book syndrome. It is fast paced, exhilarating, and action packed. There was some major character development for our returning cast and we were introduced to some new, interesting, and in some cases, already fleshed out characters.
I found “On Winds of Ruin” a much more enjoyable, less predictable read than “A Crown of Blood”. I still almost to a T predicted one scene but the rest was new and exciting and not as obvious.
Overall, I loved it and I cannot wait to read “With Scars of Spirit.”
