Flint might be safe and amongst his people, but the Woodson lands and the Iron Disk no longer feel like home. He was away only away for half a year, but close to a decade has passed for his people.
New ruling structures have formed. The pack's alliance has shifted. And the Woodson Fort has flourished. The council he gathered to advise him has now replaced his position as ruler. Flint might have started it all but now he might as well be an outsider.
The loss is the least of Flint's concerns. Oth, the Devourer of Worlds haunts Flint's dreams. The Vikings and draugr that worship him need blood and slaves to feed their war machine and his home is in their path. There has never been a greater need for the Champion of Equilibrium, and its up to Flint to find them.
The disk needs unity, but first he must convince the council and the other ruling powers of the coming threat. Hopefully, his new status as a druid will help him. Unfortunately, his warnings and haggard state make him far too much like a raving loon.
Better than the last book (I would say 3.5) it grew on me but I feel was still quite swift. After the last trapped-change-abilities book, returning home we meet many characters or are reintroduced to them, and learn about his new abilities. There are some invasions and then he has in some ways a happy finish where he gets an update on something which bugged him the whole book.
I am more likely to read the next book (this one fit nicely in the reddit druid bingo square) but won't be upset if I don't get closure.

Very good book. I did not like everything about how the lose ends were tied up, but overall I think this would be a good place to end at least this part of the series...
This is the best book in the series so far. Some good tension between characters and some intrigue. Also, it's been 4 books, stop calling this a base-building LitRpg. 👍🏽👍🏽
Some good progression for our MC and more interesting world building. I really liked the deepening lore of these past two books. I can’t wait to see more of this universe.
