Summary

In the final chapter of the Hellequin Chronicles, secrets will be revealed, friendships tested, and destinies fulfilled.

Avalon is under siege. A shadowy cabal, headed by a mysterious figure known only as "My Liege", has launched a series of deadly attacks across the globe, catching innocent human bystanders in the crossfire.

Emerging from the debris of battle, Nate Garrett, the 1600-year-old sorcerer also called Hellequin, and his friends must stop My Liege once and for all. But powerful forces stand in their way. To save Avalon, they will need to enlist the help of Mordred, once Nate's greatest nemesis, now his most formidable ally. But Mordred is grappling with a dark prophecy that could spell Nate's doom...

The fate of the world hangs in the balance. Even if Nate can halt the war, will there be anything left worth saving?

A true masterpiece

Wow,wow,wow,wow what a fantastic book series, I have been enthralled, mesmerised and elated throughout the whole 7 titles.

Steve McHugh's ability to entangle myths and legends from the panthions to the dark ages into a fantastic book series is aw-inspiring.

But my question is when will we see the return of helequin and his new powers ......

A great “end” to hellequin

As always the story pulled me in full force. There are only two series currently being written that I wait with baited breath for and this is one of them. I still prefer the original narrator to Simon Mattock but unlike many others I don’t think he does a bad job. I just still find it difficult to forget the first time a listen to this series and those original voices will always be my fondest memories.

Another top book. Thank you. Never stop writing.

More than a competent narration of a fun book

If you haven't heard/read earlier books, start there. I was disappointed initially by the change of performer from earlier books, but Mattacks does a very good job too of keeping the story going. Thoroughly enjoyed. The story continues elsewhere...

Helliquin for president.

Absolutely love all 7 books in this saga. The level of detail, action and comedy in each book is perfect in equal measures.

5 stars and more if they would let me

Brilliant

An exciting end to an excellent series. Now I am going to start again and listen from the first in the series, to pick up on the stuff I missed before, so much happens in each book.

So sad it's over!

I loved this series so much, this book is tagged as the final chapter, but it feels like it's just getting going! I really hope Mordred gets to carry on the story and that Nate will be part of it!
Better still, more for this chronicle please!!!
