It is a fun aside that is not too long but is a great story of forgiveness, love, and redemption. Just in case, you didn’t get enough in the first five books, Jaye has a novella called Lacy which tells the story of a girl you meet in Bitter Winter.
I wasn’t sure if the resistance will survive til spring with the threat of attack and a deadly sickness that could wipe them all out? Can they survive? Warning: Have Kleenexes nearby when reading this book. I even got a peek at what was happening in the Emperor’s family as they dealt with their own issues. In Exiles, I watched as part of the Resistance traveled to other lands trying to gain support for the cause before the emperor invades, and it is too late. Will the resistance be able to help or was all lost? I also was on pins and needles as Jace struggled with if he had a soul and if he was worthy of Elom’s love. In Samara’s Peril, I read to see if Samara would fall or defeat the Emperor who is wanting to take over. In The King’s Scrolls, I was introduced to the Crete people and their dragons as they teamed up with some of the resistance to help rescue the King’s scrolls. I cheered prayed as each of the main characters figured out how to take a stand for what they believe even when faced with death. In Resistance, I met twins Kyrin and Kaden and also Jayce who is half Ryrik. I am happy to say that I was excited to find a series where the characters charmed their way into my heart, and the plot kept me guessing what would happen next.
Reading was a perfect way to ignore cold symptoms as I entered another world where believing in Elom is a crime, where a resistance is forming, and where giants, dragons, and valor still exist. Being down with a cold is no fun, but the bright side was that only thing I felt like doing for a week and a half was reading. My husband and I started on the series just as I was coming down with a nasty cold. Knight before which also meant that I had never read the first four books. The trouble was that I hadn’t ever read anything by Jaye L. A month ago, I volunteered to be a reviewer for Bitter Winter, the 5th book in a Christian fantasy series called Ilyon Chronicles by Jaye L.
