Dragonslayer Vol 7-8

Forever Together (Volume 7 of 8 Dilemmas of a Dragonslayer Series )
by Ruth Ford Elward
***** Ruth Elward effortlessly and vividly brought the magical realm into life!*****

Love indeed is a many splendored thing. What such power love can possess! In Forever Together (7th volume from the Dilemma of Dragonslayer series) the sorceress Raven finally returned as a changed woman, however, she was stripped of her powers. But her love for Carison paved the way to get her magics back and more. She discovered she could transport across time and space, but when she volunteered to help bring back the Guardsmen to assist Carison's army, she made a detrimental mistake of landing in a place infested by dragons, where escape is moot.

Forever Together successfully blended romance with action and adventure. I enjoyed the world and characters in this book. I couldn't help but get carried away with Raven and Carison's relationship. Theirs is a love story that transcends through time and space. Ruth Elward effectively got my attention with her simple sentences, imaginative world and unique plot. Her writing kept the story moving at a fast pace, the tone never wavered and the action never stopped. She effortlessly and vividly brought the magical realm into life.


Bittersweet Ending (Volume 8 of 8 Dilemmas of a Dragonslayer Series)
by Ruth Ford Elward
***** I didn't want to part with the characters in the end *****

Just finished the last book of the Dilemmas of a Dragonslayer series and I literally held my breath while I read this last volume. In Bittersweet Ending, Raven needed help but Carison was stuck in another place where there was no way out, no way to get to her. Lemore became more powerful than ever, after inhabiting a dragon's body. A lot of lives were lost, a lot of people were fooled by the Diamondscale's appearance and a lot of problems were still not solved. Will there ever be an end to Carison & Raven's dilemma?

Indeed it had been a tumultuous journey to a bittersweet ending. I love this last book from the series because it got all the ingredients i was looking for in a fantasy genre - drama, action, adventure, and romance. I didn't want to part with Carison and Raven, and I didn't stop my tears when some of the characters died. Big thanks and a chunkful of praises for Miss Elward for a superb end to a series.  I think I will never look at a dragon the same way ever again. This book deserved my 5 stars rating!
