The Destroyer by Michael-Scott Earle
4.0
The Destroyer by Michael-Scott Earle is a riveting and bloody tale of sword and sorcery. The human race is being plagued and enslaved by sadistic, murderous elves and a group of people set out on a journey to find the savior of mankind. Their mission is to locate and wake The O’Baarni, a legendary warrior of old who defeated the armies of the Ancient - the Elven - who has been tucked away in a magically-induced sleep for thousands of years. Upon awakening a man they thought to be the one they seek, Kaiyer suffers severe amnesia and cannot remember who he is or where he came from. As the adventure continues, Kaiyer begins to regain bits and pieces of his past, as well as his strength and magical abilities, leaving us to question whether he is in fact the hero they need or the villain that will destroy all?
I really enjoyed this book and found the adventure to be both fun and amusing, regardless of its darker nature. The non-stop action and breakneck pace forced me to blow through these pages at an alarming speed and left me immediately wanting more. The one thing I love the most about this story is Kaiyer’s character and development - he’s akin to a clueless child whose hand you have to hold so he doesn’t wander off into trouble, but at the same time so indomitable and just completely obliterates any opposition in very amusing, imaginative and bloody ways. Watching his character evolve throughout was quite entertaining. We’re left at a cliffhanger ending with lots of threads just waiting to come together, and I definitely plan on picking up the next book in The Destroyer series to continue the adventure.
Warning: this book is very sexually explicit - Kaiyer has his mind set on sleeping with any and all women - aaand his plans always crumble. Just let the man get some, for crying out loud. That is all.
