This is the best Fantasy book Ihave read in a long time, and I am eager to consume more.
The Dragons of Time: The Fifth evokes such a strong feeling of adventure and...heart. I don't know what else to call it; this book is 100% heart. I can tell how much the author loves the world, the characters, the lore. This book really sucked me into the world and characters with this passionate atmosphere.
All of the characters were so fun and likeable. I typically loathe books with more than three POVs, but I loved the way this book made all these characters converge neatly into one epic tale. Lily, Signet, Eso, Polara, Benkem...they are all so memorable and written with such heart and care. I really cannot criticize the high number of main characters since they are executed so well.
And the art is so cool. I really wish I had gotten a paperback version of this book; that's how special it feels to me. I read this with my Kindle unlimited trial, but I will definitely buy it in support of the author.
I can't wait to read the rest of the series. If you're looking for an epic adventure about fantastical creatures with lots of heart and lovable characters, this might be your jam. I highly recommend you give it a whirl.
