The final installment in The Pendragon series finds an unlikely candidate trying to save the Earth by finding King Arthur's Holy Grail. Jordan McArthur has lived so many lives and taken so many forms, including an owl, since his Camelot days but all of it has lead him to this time and place where the fate of the earth lies literally in the hands he has wrapped around The Ancient Staff. Jordan served as Merlin to King Arthur and finding the Holy Grail is the key to turning back the Tribes that want to annihilate the plant Earth. Jordan knows the risk he is taking and the cost will be his life but nothing can stop him from destroying the Tribes but maybe his boss and co-owner of the spaceship Draco, Vivianne Blackstone. Getting her on board with his farfetched search and rescue plan and letting her know the whole truth about him and the magic surrounding the spaceship seems the only way. He will tell her the truth and see even after learning he is a shape shifting dragon if trust is in the equation. However, Vi questions his allegiance to the project, to Earth and most importantly his loyalty to her once their mere attraction turns into a passion so intense neither can control nor contain it. Their lust and need for each other is burning hotter than the engines of the spaceship.
Before Jordan has a complete understanding of how the ancient staff works or an ability to control the pulses of energy and invisible bursts of power it has to be harnessed into use by the spaceship and put to full utilization as a power source. He finds without it he is unable to keep the spaceship working to guide him to fulfill his destiny of destroying his enemy and keeping Earth safe. Along the way he and Vivianne explore planets, have a close encounter with Arthur, and go deep inside a cave looking for mystical keys. But their searching helps them find the pieces needed to conquer the evil doers as well as cause them to stumble upon the most dangerous human discovery - love. They try to stop it, fight against it with everything they have but in the end the one common denominator they both share besides memories is love for each other that no artificial source of power can produce. Jordan wants to give his life for Vi but is he willing to give his love as well because they are now one in the same option.
It is never a good idea to fall in love with one book over another in a series because it seems unfair to the others and the reader would not be at book three had they not loved the first two. But Jordan's story in this series is a mold breaker because he is more than dashing good looks or the last man able to fight for earth's salvation he is a selfless man who will risk everything including his life to help others. He seeks to do the right thing and believes that his existence is secondary only to the salvation of others especially Vivianne and while he wants to spend his life with her he realizes that one person can change the outcome for everyone and he is willing to risk his life and love for that cause. There are so many great men but a stand up guy is hard to find. Jordan and Vivianne are such a strong couple but stand alone just as well which makes them both amazing characters.
