A review by aaron_j136
Night of the Dragon by Julie Kagawa

4.0

✨ 4.5 stars ✨
This book was really good. I think it was a really good conclusion to the series. This is my favourite in the series even though lots of people didn’t like it. Shadow of the fox gets second place and soul of the sword is my least favourite even though I still loved it!!


-Spoilers-
World building:
I really love Iwagoto and all the magic and creatures in it. I really liked reading about all the clans throughout the series and liked the focus on the moon clan in this book

Plot:
I really love the action in this series and I was never bored. The sea monster towards the end of part 1 was crazy and I always love an oni haha
The ending didn’t go where I thought it would at all and also that plot twist with Seigetsu was really good and I did not see it coming

Characters

Yumeko: she was fairly silly and a bit hopeless in the first book but her character development was amazing. I felt so bad for her
Tatsumi: I loved Tatsumi in this book and his love life was the bomb. His death was shocking
Suki: she is honestly just a meh character for me and I’m a bit unsure of why she was that important. She did all these little things but idk lol
Okame: loved him like always but whyyy Julie Kagawa?! Why did he have to die?!
Chu: I loved dogs so I love chu
Daisuke: he was annoying at first but gosh he is so great now. I was really sad when he and Daisuke died
Reika: Reika is probably in my top 5 characters of allllll time ( you know what she is my second favourite book character of all time) . I teared up and leaked a couple of years when she died
Taka: so underrated and funny
Seigestu : shocker!!!!
Kiyomi: it was nice to meet her and I felt happy for Yumeko
