The Forgotten Lands

Demon Lord #9

by T.C. Southwell

The Demon Lord has travelled far across the God Realm to free the Fallen Goddess, and now he faces his greatest challenge. The demon gods are a considerable nuisance on the voyage, and a new factor makes Bane even warier of pitfalls, but no one foresees the danger that waits. In order to free Kayos’ granddaughter, Ashynaria, Bane must avoid detection or risk a confrontation. Without her co-operation, however, the plan will go horribly wrong. The dark god Telvaron is ancient and wise, and poses a dire threat, as Kayos warned. Some of his worst fears are realised, and a few he failed to predict. Bane is betrayed and flung into the last place in the God Realm anyone would wish to go; a place the Grey Gods have tried to forget, without success, despite naming them the Forgotten Lands. Injured and crippled by the celestial metal, adamante, Bane is alone, save for Majelin, the only one able to follow him. To escape the dangers of the hostile and unpredictable region, they take what appears to be the only quick route out that may find help, but it brings them to the ancient, accursed city of Naskara, where even greater perils await.

Good, but an evil ending

I got this book when it came out (2015). The ending has a massive cliffhanger, and it has tormented me for four years. I loved this series, and I have reread it many, many times. I am wondering when the next book will come out so I can find out what happens to Bane, but until then I’ll keep rereading this series...

This book was awesome, it took me like 3 days to finished it, and I can´t wait for the next one, yes there is a next one.

Bane is trapped and alone just with Majelin in the forgotten lands, the story is heart wrenching and will shattered you, his love for Mirra is so great and soul consuming, you will at the edge of your sitting so many times, so impredictable thinks happens in this book, nothing is for granted, I was devastated at the end, I finished it on the brinks of tears.
