Laurel
lived happily as an ordinary girl - until she discovered that she was a faerie.
Since
then her heart has been divided between the magic realm of Avalon and the human
world. Between the boys she loves the most; caring David and wild Tamani. But
now a powerful enemy threatens Avalon and unless the faerie world can win out,
there may be no choices left...Laurel faces the fight of her life to save everything and everyone she loves in this spell-binding faerie tale of magic and mystery, romance and danger.
Usually books where the main character can’t choose between
two people annoy me so much, that I have to say I don’t even attempt to read
them. So I was glad when I finished reading ‘Destined’ that everything had come
to the perfect end – especially since Tamani had always been my favourite.
The book starts exactly where it left off after ‘Wild’: Yuki
trapped, David having disappeared and Avalon under threat. But then Klea
arrives and things go from bad to worse. Tamani and Laurel have to flea and
Yuki escapes with Klea – with devasting results for Shar. Making it to Avalon
Laurel, Tamani, Chelsea and David, learn more about Klea and the fight ahead.
With surprising results of humans being in Avalon and Laurel finally ready to
make her choice, the fight in Avalon is hard for everyone…
The ending is brilliant and you can see that throughout the
series it has been building for this big finale; overall it’s a fabulous book (and
the final fight reminded me in ways of the final fight in Harry Potter and the
Deathly Hallows). This series should be read by fans of fantasy stories and
those who want to read something slightly different. A brilliant page-turning book,
that’s action packed and one that I wanted to never end.
