What a journey...
What can I say about this game? Apart from the fact that the trilogy is a masterpiece of modern gaming.

I must admit that after the first game, which was enjoyable but somewhat repetitive, that I bought way back shortly after release way back I didn't play an Assassin's Creed game until late last year, where I began the whole game franchise from the start.

After getting through the original as quickly as possible, I bought The Ezio Collection cheap, not expecting anything too groundbreaking. Boy was I wrong!

Ezio's story is incredible. With everything from hilarity to heartbreak, every emotion is in there, with voice performances making it feel all the more real.

Also included in the collection are two short films, a prologue and an epilogue, which are absolutely superb (and certainly provide closure)!

With so many improvements added since the original it was a whole new game, which paved the way for so many brilliant games.

I have now played every AC game currently available on the PlayStation 4 (including Valhalla, loved every one), but the only one in the series to match the quality of this game so far in my opinion is Odyssey. I believe this says a lot about the trilogy, as there have now been 11 games in the series since the last of the trilogy, which is a rather impressive feat!

Keep up the good work, Ubisoft!

Tempting Ballad is the third book in the Discord's Desire series and this time, the story is about the satyr drummer, Renn. Now, Renn has basically slept his way through the two previous books whilst still remaining sarcastic and loyal to his bandmates. Leo Kincaid comes with his own agenda, one he keeps close to his chest. So when these two meet, you simply know there will be fireworks!

Quite simply, I loved this book. There is heartbreak and hope, happiness and sadness, and a pure, sizzling connection between our two MC's. Renn has his own backstory that he has kept secret from the band and Leo offers a way to help him. Of course he can't turn that down!

There is romance, suspense, horror, betrayal, it's all here and will definitely keep you turning the pages. The ending was just perfect and so Renn/Leo. I loved it. I am hoping that Jett will have his story soon as I really want to know more about our enigmatic siren.

The third book in the series, I guess you could read it as a standalone but the question is why would you want to? For me, definitely better read in sequence. Absolutely recommended by me.
