Spellheart #9
King of the Satyrs
Father, Patriarch, Conqueror. Theo's done it all, and he's ready to settle down. But his enemies have other plans.
Far from the Hearthwood, his enemies plot against him. The Cult of the Unblinking Eye schemes. An arrogant Satyr King demands. A swarm of dragons hungers. And an evil twin has plans of his own.
At home, the Hearthwood has never been better. With Sam and Dean at his side once again, Theo thinks his days of battle and struggle are behind him. Now's the time to build and raise his family to face the future.
But his enemies are not dead, and not all his foes are conquered. And now with a family to protect, the stakes have never been higher.
For as Theo's power has grown, so too has that of his foes. Caught up in schemes that span worlds, the Sorcerer realm won't be enough to keep him and his clan alive. Even the power of The Wanderer won't grant him an edge against enemies with just as many tricks up their sleeves.
Theo will have to dig deep down and draw forth that old grit and determination to protect all that he holds dear.

A couple of things against this book. It had been a long time since the last book was released and it was kind of long. This is supposed to be the fun book. With the magical sexy elves and the OP magic. Those books shouldn't be this long. I still enjoyed it and think highly of the series but it seemed to take me forever to finish this one. Theo was also trying to be diplomatic with known enemies like the cult of the unblinking eye and the new enemy from the title the Satyr king. Problems kept coming up and Theo didn't know which group to blame He also had a confrontation with his old evil doppelganger that didn't turn out like he expected.

I really feel Theo should have been worrying about whether or not his citizens would want to keep living in the Hearthwood like way before this final battle with the 15 demigods or whatever. The Hearthwood, after all, has been attacked like at least half a dozen times by now, with death and destruction almost every time. Reminds me of New Yorkers who keep living in New York in the Marvel Comics, when that damn city is nearly destroyed practically every year.
Also, what's with all the Demigods? There's like 1 demigod in the entire first half of the series and now they're crawling out of the woodwork. And like every person who isn't one, is a bloody sorcerer. I thought these were like really hard levels to achieve.
Well, looking forward to the next book.

Didn't enjoy this much at the start. There were parts where the protagonist seemed off, and it makes sense in the end, but it wasn't fun.
Then the protag has too many women, and far too many children, so that takes up his time.
Him letting his kids do as they wish (like bringing them into dangerous areas) always was questionable to me. But he seems to have a different form of parenting, or let them do crap, then he would have to bail them out at the end.
I still like the series, but with all the added side characters, such as hundreds of children, friends, wives, etc. I don't see the protag with tricks and out of the box thinking, and a select few versus the world. This probably means the series is near to completion.
We will see how it goes.
3/5 Stars

I recommend the whole series
So here we are at the end of book 9 and I'm still enjoying the story. I'm a little sad that it's coming to an end as of book 10, but it would be worse if it overstayed it's welcome. Our main character faces down and evil King and realizes that he has allowed himself to become less vigilant. The narrator has done a fantastic job all throughout the series. I have enjoyed the author storytelling. I look forward to book 10, which is currently out now in a book form. I'm going back and forth as to whether or not I can wait for it to receive the audio treatment. With that I will simply say Well done to everybody who had a hand and bringing this story to us, the Amazon readers and audiobook listeners.

I feel like Marvin Knight finally got the right feel down for mixing levels/points with good story telling in this one vs some of the earlier in the series. I'm glad he brought back the "love interest" between the ship's computer and his robot pal, I felt like that got dropped in the prior book.
And unlike the last few books, this one finally made it feel like Theo had a real challenge. He was starting to feel too overpowered compared to any problems thrown his way.

amazing continuation of the series
The finale was something else, can’t wait to see how this epic series ends in the next book, will be really sad when it does but damn was it something

The book is all good, but the reactions of the MC are all messed up, like when he should be angry, He is just upset, besides that the only other thing is the MC just focuses on having sex most of the time and he does it with any and every elf he sees.

My favorite the series
The ups, the downs and the inconsistencies. It fits well. I can only ask for more. An excellent addition to the franchise.
