I knew it was coming, but tears formed and my heart broke. The characters have been to hell and back and Ashley Fontainne shows no mercy. Who will be called to face Evil and have their faith put to the test this time? Looking at the cover, I think I know who Legion will be targeting. Mayhem is the third novella in the Legion series, so I am anticipating some heart palpitating horror to come my way. Not all the characters will survive. How strong is their faith? WOW…Just WOW…I knew what would happen, or thought I did, but not how it would happen. I find it amazing how Ashley Fontainne managed to pack so much action in a small package, containing all the emotions a human can feel and ending the series in an uplifting way.

Ashley Fontainne once again thrills and inspires her audience in another installment of the Legion Series. Mayhem completes the character arcs of Tyler Drexell (now Tidwell) and his former girlfriend, Miranda Wilson, and her mother, Margaret Wilson. Fifteen years ago, Tyler lost his family to a demonically influenced tragedy that would have both temporal and eternal consequences for himself, his adopted family, and Margaret and Miranda Wilson. Mayhem begins with another life-changing event for Tyler Tidwell. This event pours fuel on the fire of pent-up anger stemming from the loss of his family as a child—thus opening himself to the demonic forces hell-bent on using any means necessary to eternally ruin or cripple God's call on Tyler's life.
Mayhem is an inspiring novel that brought me face-to-face with the reality of demonic influence in our everyday lives. While most of us won't ever experience a physical manifestation of evil in our lives, all of us will make choices that open us up to an occasion of sin that, if left unchecked, could lead to much more terrifying consequences. In this story, Fontainne uses the memory of the Drexell house as a representation of sin and the demonic hold on Tyler's life. It is this past that Tyler must battle with after a reminder to be on guard because the Devil is a roaring lion seeking the ruin and destruction of souls. In addition to the spiritual elements present within this story, Mayhem blends aspects of contemporary family drama and the thriller genre to bring the reader a truly remarkable and engaging tale about the lasting and potentially devastating consequences the choices we make in response to tragedy can have.

There are very few books that can actually send chills down my spine, but "Mayhem," the third entry in Ashley Fontainne's Legion novella series, does just that. As the creepy, demonic forces swirling around Tyler come to a head, events are set in motion that will conclude in a final showdown unlike any other. These books are not only thought-provoking, but also have a thread of realism and a foretaste of future events, running throughout. Nobody can do spine-tingling, meaningful Christian suspense quite like Ashley. In her unique and inimitable way, she manages to entertain, while giving you food for thought. Once again, another outstanding book by an author like no other.

Not one of my favorites.
Although I enjoy Christian stores, this one just didn’t draw me in. I got confused several times but that might have been because I kept getting interrupted.
