Description
Years have passed since Myla Lewis last fought gladiator-style in Purgatory's Arena. Now, she’s fighting again, only this time in Hell. And the stakes have never been higher. The demon King of Hell, Armageddon, has kidnapped Myla and Lincoln’s young son, Maxon.
In the wake of Maxon’s abduction, all the after-realms calling for war, and no one shouts louder than Lincoln. Myla knows that a war against Hell will cost millions of lives, so she devises her own plan, involving a small attack team and a secret entrance to Hell. Will Myla save Maxon, or will her child and all the after-realms fall to Armageddon?

I enjoyed visiting this world again. Myla and Lincoln are great together. We get a interactions with Lincoln's father and mother as well as Myla's father. Myla's son Maxon has been kidnapped so this is about saving him from Armageddon..
Thank you to the author, publisher, and NegGalley for my eARC in exchange for an honest review. - This is one of my favorite worlds.
To say I loved this, much anticipated 7th instalment of the Angelbound Offspring series, would be an understatement.
I feel like I want to go back and read all the preceding books...just to tide me over until the release of the 8th book!!
My favorite characters from the Angelbound world are back Myla and Lincoln. Myla and Lincoln are married now and have a son Maxon. Maxon is like any other little boy he is rambunctious and probably gets into everything. He is only three years old he is exploring and learning what everything is.
But Maxon is not totally like other kids his age no Maxon has magic which he has not learned how to control as of yet of course. Maxon goes through Nanny's like three or four a week at least. His latest Nanny has just walked out the door but never fear Grandpa has hired Maxon a new Nanny that will double as his bodyguard.
Armageddon, the king of H3!! is trying to get his hands on Maxon and succeeds. Myla and Lincoln are beside themselves with worry over Maxon but his new Nanny can help get him back as she has some special powers of her own. Myla and Lincoln love their little boy more than life itself and will do everything in their power to get him back.
I felt so bad for Myla when Maxon disappeared I could feel her pain and before I knew it I was in tears myself. It was as if I was there with her watching everything from a close distance. I love all the characters from the Angelbound world.
I have been waiting a long time to read Armageddon and finally it came up in the list of the Angelbound books. Like all the other books once I picked it up there was no way I could lay it down until I had read the last page. I can’t seem to get enough of Myla and Lincoln's world. I so can’t wait for the next book Quasi Redux or any book from this world.
I am a great big fan of the Angelbound world so would I recommend Armageddon? H3!!S YEAH! Oh I highly recommend each and every novel in the Angelbound world and any novel that Christina Bauer has ever written. So one click your copy of Armageddon today! Oh but if you haven’t read any of the books in the Angelbound Origins then I do suggest that you start with book one in the series as you want to get the whole and complete picture.
At first I thought I was going to have to preface this with a spoiler alert, but then I looked at the blurb for Armageddon carefully and I can still say what I want to say without giving anything away. Whew!
I cried. Seriously, I cried. I think I cried multiple times in the book. Now look at the blurb “Armageddon has kidnapped Myla and Lincoln’s young son, Maxon.” Now picture yourself as a parent and the King of Hell has kidnapped your kid - sure as sugar not to play pattycake. I cried.
Christina Bauer pulled on and out all of my heartstrings for this story. There is action, drama, betrayals, and some snark but not as much in the book due to the devastating premise. Bauer once again introduces interesting characters, but this time I want more on these characters. Hildy is badass. I want to read more about her and her future.
Then there is Nefer. I would like Nefer and Anubis’ story. Then their after story because I know that they won. I will say that there is this great scene in Buffy when they are in the Hellmouth waiting for Willow to do her spell and the demons notice them, well picture that moment in the book. I was also comparing it to how Angel ended, but the world is not ending here so I am going to go with Buffy. This is how Bauer left us with Nefer and Anubis. Yeah, I need to know what happens after. (chuckle)
I think Maxon was the first book of Bauer’s I read after the Dimension Drift series so I knew Maxon would make it out okay, BUT still my heart was in my throat. As much as I cried, I love this story. I will tell you this: there is a happy ending for Myla, Lincoln, and Maxon. Not so much for the bad guys. Armageddon is another fun day in hell with Bauer.
I received a free copy of this book and I am writing a review without prejudice and voluntarily.
