I do however think this book could have benefitted from a POV chapter from Zuri. A childhood friend of Tau, who possibly had insight into some things Tau didn't encounter firsthand in this book. I think her perspective could have been useful. Some of the side characters do get pov chapters, and I think hers could have been nice.

The side characters are occasionally interesting, but since we're trapped in the mindset of the protagonist, the shittiest teenager in the multiverse, they don't save the book.
All in all, technically proficient but emotionally offputting. Also, dragons are not in the book enough to justify naming the book after them
