Review: The Great Destroyer - Red Fairy and Fox Adventures #3

The Great Destroyer book cover on blue background

What a joy it has been to follow Queen Red and Fox! The Great Destroyer is the final book in the Red Fairy and Fox Adventures series by Courtney Denelsbeck, releasing on December 11, 2024.

I am grateful to the author for providing me with a complimentary copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

Book Synopsis

The power to rid the world of evil comes with strings, one of which is to resist peeking into the past.

When Queen Red’s desire to see her parents leads her down a dangerous path, she risks losing everything she holds dear. Meanwhile, Oliver must navigate his abandoned, cursed kingdom and the implications of the Creator’s words on his life as they uncover the mysteries of Red’s magic.

Drexel forms treacherous alliances and faces his own inner demons as he fights to reclaim his kingdom. When their worlds collide, Red, Oliver, Fox, and Drexel must join forces to defeat a powerful evil that threatens to destroy them all. Will they have the strength to prevail, or will the darkness consume them?

Book Thoughts

What an enthralling adventure this book takes you on as it continues to follow Queen Red and King Oliver in their quest to lift the curses off their kingdoms. I love that this series not only answers many of the questions around hollows and the darkness that covers the land, but that it introduces the creation story in a powerful allegory for readers. I couldn't help but be immersed in these worlds that are seeking to undo the effects of Genesis 3 while unraveling multiple plot lines. Courtney Denelsbeck does a splendid job of engaging the imagination through her creative drawings and animal descriptions while diving into the hearts of Queen Red, King Oliver, Fox, and many other characters.

Everything is well-balanced out between the plot, the people, and the spectacular places the author has envisioned. The faith arc is profound and well worth waiting for throughout the three books. In fact, these are the types of books I would have loved to escape to as a child or youth to further understand just what it means for God to make all things right again. This epic series has a conclusion that tugs at your heart and brings meaning to everything that Queen Red and Fox have gone through. If you're looking to share the gift of a Christian allegorical fantasy series that is both inventive and innocent, I recommend all of the Red Fairy and Fox Adventures for youth and adults alike.

Things I'm Not Supposed to Do

It's interesting to discover what people should be and shouldn't be doing when they share about books online. More and more, I feel like there can be a backlash against anything now, to the point where anyone with a passion for books can feel paralyzed in offering their own bookish content. For the large part, I try to tune out these things because it's ever-changing, and if it's not one thing, it'll be another. I'm sad when people feel stifled due to these capricious "rules" that half (if not more of) the time seem to keep people from excitedly engaging in what they love most. I'm thankful that I've received immense support from the reading community when I first started out, so I want to encourage anyone who is thinking of jumping in with their personal approach to books by sharing how I practically break the following ten rules covering things from content generation to materials access: I'm not supposed to use Canva for my book posts.  ...

Review: Entanglements - Finding Ever After #2

Last week, I shared about the first novella in the Finding Ever After anthology. I'm grateful that I was able to borrow the second novella in this book, Entanglements by Rachel McMillan , from Kindle Unlimited. I wish I could read the other half of the collection; however, I'm glad that two books exist out there to access! Book Synopsis Nic Ricci is a North End piano tuner and part time math tutor who wants nothing more than to compose; but there are few pennies to be found and an ailing father to support. When a well-paying opportunity arises as a rehearsal pianist for a wealthy heiress giving a recital at the Boston Conservatory, Nic grabs at the chance. He does not, however, anticipate a beautiful, intelligent woman frustratingly accompanied by a chaperone and promised to a brute of a fiance. Esther Hunisett is trapped by her father’s poor business decisions, her dowry and future attached to a man who will save her family’s estate. With little to barter before her life is ...
