You can make your way by your own wits and claws, while I must always be dependent upon some male to protect me. Wits I may have, but claws I am without, and while hands are useful for writing and fine work they are no use in a battle. [p. 63]

I read this novel as a fantasy satire. "Pride and Prejudice and Cannibalism", if you will. This world is entirely dragon-centric, fashioned after a Georgian-era society, replete with court and aristocracy decorum. It is still a delightful and unique romp in an alternate universe with genteel (and still quite savage) dragon kind. While some characters are better developed than others, the book falls short of answering all questions by the end, leaving the reader wanting more.sarahmelized_onions's review against another edition
