Dragon of Ash & Stars: The Autobiography of a Night Dragon by H. Leighton Dickson
5.0
The reason I picked up this book is me misreading the title, "knight dragon instead of night dragon.
It's the story of a black dragon, born free to a strong mother. A young and proud dragon who left the aerie when he thought himself strong and invincible.
Through the diffrents parts of his tale, the night dragon will have many names and many lives, moments of sorrow, depression, guilt, trust and confidence.
Storm fall / Snake , when he got caught for the first time by the sticks (humans), he became a fishing dragon, the battle for his freedom starts
Nightshade when he was assigned to pulling a cart in farm, where he made the "connaissance" of other dragons.
Warblood the gladiator, taking lives to save his, just for the sake of sticks entertainment.
Hallowdown the finest funeral dragon ever seen.
Don't worry, his stroty doesn't end here, he will become a mixture of all these names and characters, the fact that the dragon was telling his own memoir was awesome and what I loved the most was the "read between the lines hints" in every part of the book.
This tale was strong, authentic, heartbreaking and most of all, really really captivating.
