Vengeance Borne: Book Five of New Blood (New Blood Saga) Paperback – November 27, 2024
Purchase options and add-ons
The past and present collide, forcing Natharr and the rest of the Rilari to struggle with the consequences of their absence, past choices, and the power of the Usurper’s vizier left unchecked for far too long. The strain proves too much for some, requiring hard decisions to prepare for a dark future racing toward the Guardian of Maarihk, Ellis the Elder, and the Knights of Ril. All that two generations of Guardians have planned from what their Sight revealed is on the brink of failure. They split their forces to race against time, gambling that thinner numbers will endure on diverging paths toward victory.
Meanwhile, Nathan fights to deal with great loss and a change of course in his life in the Maarihk Empire as it plants new seeds yearning for a single goal: vengeance.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2025In Vengeance Borne, the reader is brought right back into the New Blood Saga. If you haven't read the volumes before it, I recommend that you do. You get a better understanding of the characters, their growth throughout this epic saga, but also who is important, and who may just be in the background, but everyone has their purpose in the story. This is volume 5 of the New Blood Saga. I am a big fan of this author, and especially this saga. Long stories with a lot of needed detail and it is full of action, twists and unpredictability. This story is a definite attention grabber, so much I couldn't put it down. It is a gripping and incredible story. It is always an honor to read W. D. Kilpack III books. It's a great plot to follow and try to figure out what will happen next. Natharr once again has to save humanity, or at least mankind, as it dependent on the Guardia. This story brings the past and present to the forefront, and sparks definitely fly and some are determined to keep their world, while others may be defeated. Vengeance Borne is a definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews. I read this book to give my unbiased and honest review. Amy's Bookshelf Reviews recommends that anyone who reads this book also write a review.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cannot wait for Book 6 of the series!
I just finished the fifth book in the New Blood Saga, Vengeance Borne by author W. D. Kilpack III and I have to say I loved it!
In Vengeance Borne, the reader is brought right back into the New Blood Saga. If you haven’t read the volumes before it (like I have) I recommend you start with Book 1, Crown Prince, to really relish the entire story. In Book 5 of the New Blood Saga, Kilpack’s descriptive powers are shown in the passages and chapters. It is both gripping and has twists that I did not see coming. The plot is great to follow!
In Vengeance Borne, Natharr, Ellis, and Nathan find themselves in circumstances that are leading toward the finale. Natharr’s iron self-control cracks, Ellis must assert his own place as a leader, and Nathan still feels the powerful need of the feed (you’ve got to read the books!).
Bottom line, it is a definite attention grabber. It is gripping. It is an incredible story! Again, I urge you to start with Book 1 and work your way up to Book 5. I highly recommend this series! I look forward to Book 6 – Usurper’s Might!
