I'm glad I'm enjoying this series. I'm not sure why I'm surprised at the fact that I rate these books highly when I'm a hopeless romantic but maybe it is because I wasn't expecting to love the other elements in the book as much as I did.

In this book particularly I was a little disappointed that we didn't get as much romantic development as we did in the first book but I have some understanding within me as the relationship dynamic was very different compared to the couple in the first book. I was a fan of the political machinations shown in this book and look forward to continue reading the series.

CW: death of parent, violence, blood, kidnapping

I really enjoyed Skylar and Ladon. I liked the fact that they weren't opposites but mirror images of themselves. The bad guy is pretty up there on the evil scale. I really like learning about this dragon/phoenix world that the author is building.
