The end of days has finally come.
The Thirteenth Guardian by KM Lewis is a genuinely different approach to all the different types of dystopian books that I have read over the years. Mr. Lewis truly takes it into a new spin. Taking all the ancient stories, paintings, and all the religious teachings that we have known throughout time to wrap them up into one story.
The Guardians
The Guardians, in The Thirteenth Guardian, are led by three women who are tasked to finding special people that will be able to help humanity. One of them is Florianne Kainzer. She is a seventy-year-old lady who has been tasked much like her mom and sister in helping to protect these people. I love this group since they are trying to help us rebuild our way of life into this new way with these six strangers. Throughout all the danger that they have gone through this group has to make sure that anyone with the specific things that they are looking for stays alive through the end of the world.
The Six Strangers
Throughout The Thirteenth Guardian, we met these six strangers. We met the first four in the first chapter and didn't meet the other two until a bit later after the first event happens. Each one is important as they have the anomalies in their blood that the Guardians are seeking. I love how we met each one and how we end up following them through these events that led them together. So far it seems like we have some romance involvements through two sets in this group of six strangers. Originally supposed to be eight but the other two were lost in the earlier tragedies of the end of the world.
The Destructors
After the first events started the Destructors, my lame name for them for the people that haven't read the book, are trying to stop this group from finding each other to help rebuild society once it is time for that to happen. Of course, they want to shape the world into what they want and not what the rest of the people want. This group is mostly led by men who need to cause violence and destruction. They continue their quest throughout the story.
Five Stars
The Thirteenth Guardian by KM Lewis is a marvelous book told through different angles. Presenting the story this way is very interesting, especially during each cataclysmic event that happens. I loved this book a lot and giving it a five-star rating. Along with recommending it to everyone that likes Dystopian. I will definitely be reading the next book.
