Midlife Battle

Druid Heir #7

by N.Z. Nasser

My nails made little moons in my palms. Middle-aged women might have froth and bubble on their upper layers but underneath, we were tidal waves. Death is coming for me, of that there is no doubt. My hair greys quicker than before, as if she already has a grip. Life with Ezra and our daughter is joyful, but the city is strange. Footsteps trail in the snow where no man has walked. An unexpected migration of birds clouds the London sky. The book buried in the grove of the cottage whispers to me, even though I ignore it. When the Wild Hunt sounds its horns and the blue goddess rides, the drumbeat of doom fills the Otherworld. Gaia is jittery, more bride than warrior. I am her champion, though I have no experience of leading an army. Though I prefer compassion to my obsidian blade. As magical factions take sides, the only constant is treachery. The new Prime Sorceress wants an alliance, but after her betrayal of Ezra, how can I trust her? As my power curls within me, Rayna’s diaries illuminate a way out of the darkness and I dare to hope destiny favours me. It all comes down to this. Blood, graft, loyal friends and a handful of multivitamins. Together, we’ll stop the rogue gods from reforging humanity in their hateful image. Together, we must find a way to cheat Death or lose it all. If you’re a fan of Paranormal Women’s Fiction and magic-wielding heroines over forty, get your hands on the final book in the Druid Heir series today. The Druid Heir series (7 novels) is now complete.

Midlife Battle: Druid Heir Book 7

I was sucked in from page one by the underlying tension and fear but also the determination from our crew. All the way from Elzra, to the one time back stabbing Sahil, we have pockets of utter belief in Alisha's ability to defeat the Gods. The Goddess of Death herself proves to be their most cunning and deadly foe so far. Doubts are cast on who can be trusted, who will bow to pressure and who will die for their cause!🥺

This is a nail-biting read with plenty of twists and surprises. I really liked how much faith Alisha showed in herself and all of her friends and allies but the sacrifices were a shock to my heart.😭💔

This is a wonderful series. I hope more people find and enjoy it soon. The mix of cultures is so refreshing and beautifully written. I also loved all of the different types of magics.✨️
I highly recommend this!😍🌟

I have enjoyed this series so much: the details of the storyline, the variety of the characters and how they each grow and show off their many facets, the portrayal of strength through or despite self-doubt.
My one disappointment was that life got in the way and I couldn't read it all in one sitting.
I really loved this and can't wait to see what the author produces next.

Battle Royal

At long last the final scenes play out and our druid discovers what really has mattered all along. The spoiled gods get their cumeuppence after almost burning down the world. There are more losses as is always the case with war but there is sweet reward when all is done. And there's even room for more if the author decides to take us back to this world.

Spectacular

I took my time to savor the last of the Druid series and it was nerve wracking and heartwarming all in one. Loved how everyone came together and relationships previously strained all worked out and strengthened into a stronger family. A beautiful send off.

I loved the series and I believe this one is my favorite. It's a really good series. However, the writing and grammar are horrible. Missing words, added words, bad sentence structure, etc. This happens in all seven books. If you can get over that than you're good to go.
