Synopsis: One boy must earn the trust of a blind dragon and hunt down an elusive sorceress before she can rekindle the war that nearly destroyed their world.
As the Kingdom of Maldobar emerges victorious from the brutal invasion of the Tibran Empire, much of the land is left in utter ruin. With his home destroyed and family gone, 16-year-old Thatcher Renley has no one left to turn to. And when he’s mistaken for a Tibran soldier and banished to a wartime prison camp, Thatcher knows his only hope for freedom lies in appealing to Queen Jenna directly.
But getting out of the prison camp might be the least of his worries— especially after he stumbles across a feral dragon locked in an iron cell.
As far as dragons go, Fornax is a lost cause. The battle that killed his rider also left him blind and too aggressive for any knight to control. But Thatcher can’t deny feeling drawn to the beast. Does he have what it takes to calm Fornax and join the proud ranks of Maldobar’s dragonriders? Only time will tell. And with a bloodthirsty Tibran witch threatening to rekindle the chaos of war, everyone’s time may be running out
Review: Overall, I thought this was a good book! The world building was good and the character development was sound. I liked how well the book did to keep an iconic dragon feel to it. It felt a lot like Eragon in some ways and I really liked that. The book also did well with the plot.
The only complaints I had about the book is that the book sometimes felt like it leaned too much on Eragon and it’s world building. The book also felt really slow in some parts. The book also liked to jump around a little bit and that made it hard to follow.
Verdict: It was good!
