Two
days back to back! This one is a bit
late but had a bit of an injury on the hand which makes this a tad bit more
difficult, but I can manage. As
promised, today I’m reviewing the other book to release yesterday for Ink
Monster, and that is Armageddon the 3rd
book in the Angelbound series written
by Christina Bauer. I received this as
an ARC from NetGalley and Ink Monster for my honest review. There will be spoilers for the first 2 books
in her and again, if you haven’t started the series yet I highly recommend
it. If you want to check out my reviews
of Angelbound or Scala click the titles then come back. Also, the first book in the series is also in
a bind-up with Becoming Alpha.
So
I went into this book with no information on what it was about. I didn’t look at the synopsis or
anything. I knew it was book 3 in a
series I love and had Myla on the cover looking all bad ass in her fighting
suit and her dragon tail ready for action.
Once I was a few pages in I did go back and read the start which cleared
up my confusion. This book skips ahead
and takes place 5 years from where Scala
left off. Once confirming I hadn’t
missed anything important, like a novella, in there somewhere I was good to go
once more. We pick up the story with Myla and Lincoln
married and splitting their time between Purgatory and Thrax, after all they
are King and Queen. They also have a
little boy named Maxon, yes it looks like Myla’s inner lust demon was finally
let out on Lincoln. Things have been
relatively good and drama free but Myla needs to put her fighting suit back on
and fight her biggest battle yet, in Hell.
She'll face Armageddon, The King of Hell, himself when he kidnaps her
son. A war between the after-realms is
emanate and will likely result in millions of lives lost. So Myla devises her own plan, a small attack
team to rescue her son and avoid war.
Armageddon is another quick read from
Ink Monster. They are wonderful at
packing a story full of all the good things but keeping the pacing moving along
without a single slow spot so you sit down to read and get up when it's
finished. I love reading about Myla, she
is such a kick ass character, literally she used to fight in the arena! Now she has her Scala powers, and the power
that comes from being a Queen of the Thrax and the daughter of the president of
Purgatory. She is also part fury demon
and a mother and you don't mess with a mothers child and not deal with her
wrath. There is a lot going on in the
story and at first the 5 year skip made me sad, so much stuff we missed, but
then after thinking about it, doing this they had a different story to tell
instead of risking any repeating.

So
there is plenty of non-stop action going on in the story, given. There is also a new emotional
attachment. Myla and Lincoln are
parents, which means carving out alone time for themselves between their busy
schedules. There is still great
chemistry between those two and they are able to bring out the best in one
another. The plot of this story is fast
paced and you are drawn quickly into the world once more, trying to figure out
how Armageddon plans to get his hands on Myla and Lincoln's son and then how to
get him back without playing into a trap.
I
give this book 5 Igni easily and
can't wait for the next one to come out.
If you like quick reads with great characters that get your heart racing,
action, and suspense check out the Angelbound
series.
