Dragons of Blackmoor: Where Monsters Pray (Season 1: Ep 21-25) (The Bloodwrought Cycle Book 6)
About
Season One
In Blackmoor, the only thing more dangerous than the monsters is the blood in your veins.
Melissa Moore thought she was accepting an easy witch life—until Blackmoor proved there’s no such thing. In a town built on ancient grudges and buried magic, the truth about her family awakens something long dormant. As the Equinox approaches, Melissa’s power begins to rise, marking her as prey to every supernatural force watching the city.
Xylar Thorne is the Dragon Sin of Lust: a lethal hybrid of dragon and vampire, forged into a weapon by a family that never intended to love him. After centuries in the shadows, he’s finished being used. With civil war fracturing the Thorne bloodline, Xylar is ready to seize the throne—and burn anyone who stands in his way.
When an ancient evil threatens to rise and strip Blackmoor of its magic, Melissa and Xylar are forced into a dangerous alliance—one that quickly becomes something more. Drawn together by power, pain, and a pull neither of them can deny, they discover that love may be the one thing more terrifying than war.But in a world where loyalty is a lie and every secret demands blood, loving the wrong person can be fatal.
As the sun sets on the final day, they must choose: save the world that fears them—or destroy it to protect each other.
Praise for this book
Excellent, poignant writing and an intricate plot rise in intensity to a point that almost make the wait for book 7 and the end of Season 1 unbearable. Eh, but what choice do I have?
The cast of characters stabilizes, but their actions become so important that the multiple POV becomes quite necessary. Even the names of the characters are an interesting choice. Each of their actions is driven by deep emotions or limitless cruelty - or both. Thirst for power or immortality and love for family (born in or found) drive everybody in a clash of life and death.
Nobody is perfectly good, even the characters I root for make mistakes and more than questionable choices - when choice is truly a choice. But be aware: there are perfectly evil characters in this book, giving it a dimension of despair in an unbalanced, ruthless fight, driven by greed, fear, love and survival.
There is so much imagination in the plot and at the same time so much human reality that you won't be able to put the book down, so enjoy!
