The Underworld has opened, and now, the most lethal Hellions in existence are free, rampaging over the land.
Armed with her allies and unwavering determination, Clara sets out to fix it. But the Hellions are the least of her problems, for an old enemy has returned, threatening to mutate the realms into fallen worlds – a fate in which there would be no recovery.
With time running out, Clara must accept her heritage and prepare to face her greatest foe yet.
So much happened in this book, it seems impossible! It was quest after quest. Not very many of them turned out the way they wanted them to. Kyne did turn out to be power hungry, no surprise there. I wish for Clara's sake Kyne could have been reformed. Actually all bad mage were power hungry, that's just a no brainer. The Darlene pulled out some surprising gifts that I didn't know they had. Siren ended up where I thought he would. Chimera's final form will shock you. Charlie transforms and I'll let you decide if you like what happens to his character. I wish Clara's memories would return, I think it would help her connect with her parents better. Anyway you'll have to read the book to find out what happens to Amicus & if Clara gets turned into a Herron in the end. Does the Daemon become the King? And what happens to Zanatos?
I was SO EXCITED to get an ARC of the third book in the Nephilium Lands series. S.A. Edwards' world-building and characters are enchanting in every meaning of the word. This series is a fast-paced adventure that takes you from the seemingly mundane to the absolutely fantastical, all through the eyes of its heroine. Clara's journey continues in this third installment, once again filled with fast-paced action, heartbreak, a blossoming romance, hope, and loss - all characteristics of a great read! I really liked that this book brought Clara full circle in some aspects. It was great to have a lot of the secrets that the first and second books alluded to brought to light in this third book. This is a fabulously detailed multiverse with believable characters that you can relate to in a set of books that you won't want to put down. I can't wait see more from S.A. Edwards and the Nephilium Lands after reading the third book in the series!
Edwards pens a great sequel story in Mage: The Eternal Realm. I have read the first books in this series, and I really enjoyed them. The characters fit within the story line, and works with this great world building story. Another journey and quest awaits in the realm, and though it works on its own, I recommend reading the first two books. It's filled with magic and adventure, with mystery that makes it unpredictable. It's a great story to follow and try to figure out what will happen next. This author's characters develop and interacts well with the other characters. I look forward to reading many more stories by this author. This book is a definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews.
It doesn't disappoint the readers. This book, much like the two previous ones, holds so much magic, mystery, suspense and it kept me on the edge of my seat!
I had a time frame I wanted to read this book by, and when the date was quickly approaching I didn't think I'd make it but it's such an enjoyable read I read it in such a small time!
It was so awesome to see the way this series is spanning out and what adventures Clara has been on.
This is a great YA story that adults, teens and preteens alike can all easily enjoy.
Great job Edwards for writing an enjoyable series. I'm excited to see what adventures book four brings to Clara!
Where to start? The last book ended on one heck of a cliffhanger and I've waited impatiently for this final book ever since. It was well worth the wait though! When Clara, Siren and Chimera arrive in the Eternal Realm they're in for some huge surprises(and so was I!). The pace was exhilarating and I struggled to put the book down and not just read it all in one sitting. I thouroughly enjoyed myself from start to finish and will probably re-read the entire trilogy soon back-to-back now that they're all out. I definitely frettet a fair bit for a lot of the characters and there were some really sad goodbyes too. Overall one of my very favourite reads this year. I cannot recommend this enough!
The Eternal Realm is a fantastic conclusion to the Mage trilogy. There was a lot of ground covered in this book, calling for much adventure. I only found myself wishing for more on Siren and Clara's developing relationship but outside of that I have no complaints. I loved the ideas of redemption covered in this book. I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
