Survivor

Valiant, Book Six

In this game, players must fight to survive. The Nyclimes call it tradition. Everyone else calls it a nightmare.

Every year, the Nyclimes captures fifty humans and throw them into a twisted, brutal game of survival where the rules are simple: fight to live or die.

Contestants must battle in pairs through deadly obstacle courses, brutal puzzles, and blood-soaked combat—while relying on allies they can't always trust. They must find food to prevent starvation at camp while navigating shifting strategies, fragile alliances, and opponents willing to do anything to win. When the Nyclime host introduces powerful crystals into the game, everyone wrestles with the temptations of lying, stealing, and joining their enemies—doing whatever it takes to live.

Every choice could be fatal.

The Nyclimes' twisted game breaks everyone it touches. They'll betray friends to get ahead. They'll compromise everything they believe in just to survive. Because in this game, only monsters win. In the end, only two will make it out.

And they won't be the same.

Very Engaging Story

This book kept me engaged. I finished it in 3 days. I love how each charater has their own quirks to make them unique and real. I enjoyed the fact that some characters are more than what they seem while others are 'what you see is what you get' also bringing them more to live for me. I can't say enough how much I dislike mere's character. I'm sure it will be obvious when you read about him why. One of the things that stood out to me in this story is how your perspective of things can switch with how bad things turn out. It is up to us to remember how God can make something good from the bad in our life. In this book characters will have to choose if they will do the right thing even if it cost them greatly or make a bad desicion in order to survive. What would you do? I highly recommend you read this book and find out.
