Dark Rover's Shire, Book 97 of the Children of the Gods series by Isabell Lucas @itlucas_author - You must read this series in order from book 1!
This is the final book about Fenella & Din that I absolutely adored! More Info on Annani’s mate Khiann whom has been lost for centuries. Eek! Tropes: Contemporary, Paranormal (Gods/Goddesses/Aliens), MF, Strong FMC, Second Chance, Slow Burn, Overall Storyline Arc For The Series, Fated Mates & a HEA! I can't wait for the next trilogy to start!

Fantastic
I love your novels, all 97 from this series, and all the others you have written. Howevrr, I'm still disappointed as always when I hit the last page because the number says there approx 30 additional pages, yet the story has end.
I'm disappointed by the ending's every time, because of how you are setting up you page number stytem.
I've never come across another author who starts and ends their noveks with a summary of every book they've ever written. I hope this gets fixed to promote a more enjoyable reading experience.

getting closer but still not the story we’re waiting for.
Love this series and await each new book with bated breath. But come on! Let Annani find Khiann already! The blurb on the next book isn’t even the same story line.

July 17, 2025BOOK NINETY-SEVEN I. T. Lucas showed out!!
I found this line Soo fitting to the times, and it set the tone to the book.
"Maybe that's the point," Din suggested. "We keep living because that's what defeats evil. Every normal day is a victory."
I am curious to find out finding Khiann will play out because Navuh has been playing the long game.
Are the Fates creating an army? Will Khiann be the final piece? Annani is getting desperate if she has resorted to picnics with babies to pick their brains.
Logan and Karen went through it but I am in agreement with his line of thinking. " Perhaps he actually wanted Lokan to get away?"
The Clan has been compromised. First with Kira now, We saw the leak confirmed again with Turner team.
This was a good one. Action, drama, angst and plenty to celebrate.

Finished with Fenella!
Looks like this is the last book with Fenella front and center. Unfortunately, Arezoo is taking center stage with Ruvon in tow and she has now been subjected to being stupid.
It was obvious that she knew Ruvon was attracted to her and wanted to date her, and even after acknowledging that she knew that, the author would have her say things like, “is he doing that to impress me”, “did he buy new clothes to look good for me”? It’s like on and on. It was very annoying, like she suddenly didn’t know what he did things.
On a happier note, we found some people and brought a small group of people home to the clan. There was some danger and an old “friend” may have resurfaced (as I always knew he would) .
See y notes, highlights and commentary n Goodreads. Happy reading!

Finella has gone viral as the Clans nightly entertainment at the Hobbit Bar! And her readings are hilariously addictive! The Bar is doing so well since she started bartending that it is open every night!
But, Finella and Co. are taking a trip to Egypt. This trip proves to be fruitful in what they return with! Missing treasure thousands of years old! Along with the discovery of Din’s questionable decorating abilities that everyone has to give their comment about!
I absolutely loved this book and could not put it down! Can’t wait for the next!

Every characters are incredibly different and intriguing. The stories are totally captivating too. Can't seem to get enough but I gotta say it ...When is Annani getting her HEA with Khiann ? 🥺 I mean it's been 97 books. Can't a girl.. or should I say Godess, get a break at some point?🥴 Please and Thank you ?! 😬

Fenella and Din's third book
Well the third Fenella and Din book did not disappoint. This book has a lot going on. There is a lot of action, stress and it will keep you on edge throughout the book. We see new immortals and are reacquainted with some others. Lokan and Carol end up having quite an adventure as well. Overall this was a book I just couldn't put down until I finish it.

A thrilling chapter in this ongoing saga
An absolutely thrilling end to Finella's trilogy. Every time I thought I knew what was coming, the story veered off in another unexpected direction. I was on the edge of my seat for Carol and Lokan's escape. Finella has finally found her place with Din and in the village. I can't wait for Annani's mate to be found in future books but who they found in this book was very surprising and left me wanting more.

𝗧𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝘀: Paranormal Romance, Age Gap, Fated Mates, Forced Proximity, Sci-Fi, Second Chance
𝗣𝗢𝗩: Multiple, both the main characters, secondary characters & previous main characters
𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁: Ebook
The book count for this series may seem daunting since this is the 97th book, thankfully the way IT Lucas organizes the series is by having the books are set in 3-4 books in a mini-series that revolves around a main couple. There are often side characters & couples that you will see develop along side the main couple. The series does have an overarching storyline that continues through all the books so it is best to read them in order. These books are also told from the POV of multiple individuals, even many of the side characters or members of previous highlighted coupled. Each chapter clearly identifies who is telling their story so it is easy to follow.
This is the final book in Fenella and Din’s story, and I am loving the direction that it is going. This book has given us such a leap forward into hopefully finding the Clan Mother’s lost love. I loved getting to see Egypt in this one and can’t wait for the next book!

So many new developments happen in this story. There are new discoveries on the Egypt trip that could help with finding Khiann. And the little girl, Cyra, may also be of help because of her dreams. Also, it seems that Khiann may not be buried alive alone, but others are with him. There may be some new dormants that will be able to join the clan. Annani eludes to all these events coming together with Khiann and the full circle with their enemies. There is so much more to come. It’s so exciting.

Dark Rover’s Shire Book 97.
Love the series The Children of the Gods. The books are to short, just a you get into it it is over and you need to by another one. It a great series but is very expensive to by as each book is like $7-$8 time 98 books. It been thrilling to read, but like I side the books are to small.

Dark Rover’s Shire
Book 97 in the series and more to come. I.T. Lucas has created and continues to create a storyline that is unique and interesting. The clan versus the brotherhood both have princesses but one is free to share herself and the other captured and isolated in a harem. They now communicate in secret but aren’t allowed to be together yet.

Good
I really enjoy this series. It has been a constant companion for me the last couple of years. I adore most of the characters and root for them all the time. I am so glad that Lohan and Carol could finally come to live in the village.
Esag being found alive is exciting.
We are getting closer to Khianne being found. I am so excited for Annani.

As always with every book I find myself mesmerized By the clan. How they work together to try to bring their lives back to where they used to be. All of the characters and their back stories are fantastic.

I loved it!!!
I love the happy endings for all of the sisters and for Fanella. But the one story that I’m really excited about is the happy ending for Annanini. So many clues…. It’s like a chess game, all the pieces must be where they belong. Can’t wait for the next book!!!

I keep getting more interesting.
All the books are good. This one had a lot going on, and I enjoyed this installment with the continued expansion of the clan and the new findings. The puzzle pieces are gradually falling into place as the search for Khiann amps up.
