L.J. Bus's Reviews > Royals of Villain Academy: Books 5 - 8

The focus of the story shifts from Academy life to a search for a lost relative.

The 5th installment focuses more on the search for her relative and the uncertainties that come with that and the relationship between the Scions but it was a nice change from having seen Rory struggle and strife and slowly rise above all the things the Barons (current members of the Pentacle) and everyone else has thrown towards her.

Book 6: Eventhough the Pentacle of Scions has been weakened in a most unsupected way (well the ending of book 5 made it clear but I mean unsuspecting for the other Scions), they come together the best they can to try and overcome the problem they now face. But beside that problem it is clear there is still something major that can either crush their Pentacle or their bond altogether or make it tighter than ever before.

Meanwhile Rory is adjusting to life with a Fearmancer parent.

Book 7: Apart from the scions’ necessary actions to stop the sinister plans the barons have set in motion, Rory’s mother seems to be getting back to her full strength after her ordeal. But is that a good thing or a bad thing?

Book 8: With the ending of book 7, the last book had the promise to be captivating and interesting. And it delivered!
The conclusion to this great series wraps up everything with convincing details and without anything feeling rushed. And I must say, the ending is just perfect <3
