A thousand years have passed since a dragon has been seen in the world. Science and technology have replaced magic, which has dwindled until it has become little more than an element of myth and legend. There are those who still have dragon blood flowing through their veins, distant descendants of the mighty creatures of old. These rare humans have the power to cast magic, the power to heal, and the power to craft alchemical weapons capable of starting wars… or ending them. But they are feared for those powers, and in recent centuries, they have been hunted nearly to extinction. The few remaining survivors must find a way to change how humanity perceives them or be lost to the world forever. The Dragon Blood Collection includes three full-length novels of action, magic, and romance: Balanced on the Blade’s Edge Deathmaker Blood Charged

I really enjoyed these books and was able to get lost in the story. Often with a series, there is at least one book that is inferior to the others. These, however, were all engaging and the characters were likable and the plots were entertaining. Don't read it expecting Dragons, however, as that's not what it's about.
Not just steampunk pirates!, but heart-of-gold, mad-scientist, dreadlocked, misunderstood, inventor pirates! Not just fighter pilots!, but pint-sized, feisty-grrl, assassin-grade marks-woman fighter pilots! Plus talking swords! Steam-powered dirigibles! Out-of-time sorceresses! Caves, jungles, volcanoes, and the bubbling taiga of death!!! Wisecracking screwball comedy humour!
If you dealt out all these narrative elements from the Big Deck of Big Adventures, I'd roll my eyes...yet in Boroker's adventures they work charmingly. Awww! What a fun escape. A quick, satisfying read. Witty and inventive.
