Orion: The Council of Beasts

Orion #3

by Darius Hinks

Orion is dead, his mortal host killed before the forest king could resurrect. The halls of the wood elves are in ruins and Athel Loren has fallen under the corrupting shadow of Chaos. As the ancient accord between elf and forest collapses into conflict, daemons flock to the woodland domain, intent on creating a new Realm of Chaos in the heart of the Old World. As the seasons pass and Orion is finally reborn, he must rally all the defenders of the forest if any are to survive.

The concluding part of Darius Hinks' Orion Trilogy.

Reviews

[Alexander Draganov]

I can't be rational about this book. On a conscious level I am aware that the plot was still chaotic and probably had plot holes, I am sure that I didn't understand all of it - but it doesn't matter! There was NON-STOP breathtaking action, furious battles between majestic heroes and the most hideous villains imaginable, all of this with a not so slight note of the absurd. Kept me reading until late in the night and for such books my rating is always five!

This is by far the best book in this trilogy, compared to the first book which was pretty awful. I do recommend grinding through the 2nd book so that you'll be able to enjoy the conclusion of the whole journey.

"Ebb and tide,
Drifts away.
Heath and bough,
Must decay.
Flaxen hair,
Turns to grey,
Every life,
Has its day."

The absolute deviation of nurgles rot on the forest is absolutely heartbreaking and I never put it together until near the end that the reason KHORNE was appearing to Ordanna was because of her absolute hatred and want for revenge against Ariel and Orion. Ended on a cute happy note didn't disappoint enjoyed it.
