In A Time of Courage, angels, demons and heroes face the ultimate fight for the Banished Lands. This is the epic conclusion to John Gwynne's mighty trilogy: Of Blood and Bone. Battle the dark Reclaim the world The King of the Otherworld is finally free. Armed with fearsome new starstone weapons, Asroth prepares to lead his demonic war-host south. And with the help of his bride, Fritha, he plans to crush the warrior-angels and their allies for good. In the shadows of Forn Forest, Riv and the surviving Ben-Elim hold a war council - desperate to unite those who would stand against Asroth and his army. They decide to fly west, to join the Order of the Bright Star. But Drem and the Order are already under siege by a demon horde and their fragile defenses may soon shatter. Across the Banished Lands, armies are gathering to settle ancient grudges and decide the fate of humanity. Drem, Riv and the Bright Star's warriors will need to call on all their courage as they face the final battle. But will it be enough, as their darkest hour draws near?

Thank you John Gwynne for these books.
Truth and courage !
Truth and courage,
Truth and courage.
This is the 3rd book in the of Blood and Bone series by John Gwynne and I have to say this was a fantastic fast paced intense read
This whole series is just awesome, politics, religion, angels and demons, battle bears, warriors, giants, twisted demonic creatures and creations all fighting in a war for supremency.
This final book in the series does not stop with the action with just the right amount of down time between moments of intense action and great characters and just crazy fun all around.

I'm fairly conflicted about how I feel about this book. Perhaps it was my mood or this book just didn't work for me, I don't know. But alas I was quite bored with the characters and action in the beginning and the climax. The middle was the best part for me. With the ending, I didn't feel the high stakes, anticipation and investment in the results like I did with “Wrath.” I'm glad I read it, but I don't think I'll reread this series like I'd like to one day reread The Faithful and the Fallen. On the fence between 3- or 4-stars, but for now 3-stars
This was a miss, basically one big battle scene mostly of boring one on one battles.
Don't get me wrong, the author does battles very well but if the whole book only consists of battles it gets old very fast.
