I received this book in exchange for an honest unbiased review.

This book is what I would call a filler. It fills in the gaps that are happening with our dragons and the council. We know the council has it so bad for the dragons in Stratham because they are hybrids however we don’t really know why aside from the fact that they’re all hybrids. Yes in history, most people don’t like different but the way that the council is going after these dragons it seems as though it is more personal than anything else.

This book exposes one of the reasons aside from the fact that they are are all hybrids. In book 1 Aris we meet Aris who is the king of the hybrid dragons. We learned that he is on the run with a couple of his adopted family and the reader thinks just like all of the characters it is because they are hybrids that they are being hunted. However in this book we learn that Aris is being hunted because his uncle is not too happy about the hybrid dragons and what it means for his reign.

Evander has been held captive the his entire life and he plays a significant role within the Stratham Dragon Clan. Even though Evander plays a significant part with in the fight between the two factions he just seemed kind of entitled. I do understand that he has been held captive for most of if not his entire life however he could not fathom why Aris and his gang did not trust him. He kept thinking that they are not being nice to me, they hate me, I don’t understand why they don’t trust me, I didn’t do anything when in actuality he was sent there to kill Aris. I just felt like he wanted too much when he refused to tell anybody his story. It was not until Aris find him and explains what the issue is did he feel as though he was finally accepted.

The way that this story ended it did seem as though a little more information needed to be given however I have read all of the books in the series so far and all of these books end the same way. It sets up for the next book and the continuation of the fight between the Stratham dragons and the council.
