REVIEW
I have to start the review by saying that Calista Skye is one of my favourite authors. Her novels are action packed and delicious, and never dwell too far into sensitive topics or are overtly dramatised.
That’s not to say that there isn’t any drama. The character’s have their flaws. Broxag is so self-assured that he’s arrogant. Thanks to his upbringing he struggles to see things from other’s perspectives, wondering why he even should. This causes many issues with other characters as arguments and misunderstandings arise.
The story flow is wonderful within Trophy Of the Dragon. Calista mixes the plot with just enough character development with tension scenes to leave you wondering what will happen next. There are a few action scenes within the novels, raising the stakes of romance and putting the character’s lives in danger.
Unlike Alana Khan’s Love on Impact and Love Uncaged and AWOL Alien by Kelsey Nicole Price, Evelyn and Broxag are both legally matched through the match-making services. This still allows you to explore the world that the multiple authors are building. In Trophy Of The Dragon you finally get to meet some of the last remaining human men in existence, for example. You also get to see the world from a slightly wealthier individuals life; seeing how Earth has evolved from the upper-middle class perspective.
FINAL WORD
I really enjoyed reading Trophy Of The Dragon. I love the smug and arrogant Broxag, especially how Calista writes his character development over the course of the novel.
