Forest of Ruin by Kelley Armstrong

4.0

I read Kelley Armstrong to be amazed, and Forest of Ruin definitely fit the category. High levels of fantasy, adventure and mystery, the Age of Legends series is finished with a bang, but ends with the soft thud of a door closing.

Moria and Ashyn are two different people. They are almost too much like complete opposites to my liking, but their personalities change as they develop after encounters. In Forest of Ruin, we really see these two girls make very different journeys, a path of self discovery for both of them.

As for their love lives, it's both simple and complicated. For Ashyn, she only has one love interest, Ronan. However she has to come to terms with the fact that she wants him in order to get her happy ending. Moria has both Gavril and Tyrus, her companion and her lover. While I'm happy Kelley Armstrong didn't turn this into the love triangle of Cainsville, I still prefer Moria and Gavril. I suppose their future will only be decided in fanfiction.

Forest of Ruin isn't a short read, but I was able to complete it within a few days simply because it's the kind of book you know you need to read and finish as fast as you can. Kelley Armstrong definitely didn't disappoint with this one.
