A review by zoeyforeman
Cold Hearted Son of a Witch by M.R. Mathias

2.0

This part of The Dragoneers Saga is really action-packed, but you come through some very interestingly depicted characters as well. For example, introductions of Marcherion and Lemmy (who is probably my favourite character right after Zah) are nicely covered in the story. However, there could be more developed Linux and Lanxe POV. I wasn’t quite persuaded about the quality of the book in the beginning (in part II called Moonlit Serpent Shit), but it gets better when you begin feel thrill about the Confliction and there are some clever details (e.g.: Clover in connection with Dragoneers emblem). In ‘Cold Hearted Son Of A Witch’ the biggest ‘bad WTF’ moment (see my review of ‘The Royal Dagoneers’) is probably when you find out that those nasty cannibalic Sarax come out of steel star ship. It somehow doesn’t fit the whole story – to me at least, connection of dragons and aliens doesn’t work.

*I received the book for free through Goodreads First Reads.
