The Sky on Fire

I received an audioARC thanks to NetGalley and Macmillan Audio. The opinions expressed are entirely my own. 

 Dragons rule the world and humans are pretty much just there to serve. And at the top of the dragon power structure is the worst of the worst - the dragon that condemned Anahrod to death 17 years ago. Unfortunately for Neveranimus, she survived and has been living in the deeps ever since. Even more unfortunately, a group of people have tracked her down to help them pull off a robbery of Neveranimus' vault. Hijinks ensue.  

I really liked book. It's largely a heist story, with political intrigue, found family and a romantic subplot that is queer and poly. There was an interesting system of rings to indicate job roles and sexual preferences.  The world building was very well done, giving enough information to enable me to not feel lost without becoming info-dumpy. The magic system made sense and held together. The character building - meh - many of the supporting characters were not very developed beyond archetypes.  But it worked for me, as this is not a character story.  It's a seat of your pants adventure.

This is a fun ride, and isn't trying to be anything more. And I was here for it all the way. It's billed as a stand alone, but the possibility of further adventures is hinted at in the epilogue. I'd be there for that as well should it happen.
