This was a lot of fantasy and world building to dive into without having read any other books in this series. That’s my own fault, but despite jumping in headfirst the author did a great job explaining the dragons, their knights, and how mating between the five parties involved works. The writing transported me back in time to classic literature and fantasy styles, which was refreshing. Although it was scarce on the smut, when it was present it was spicy. This novella made me smile and I enjoyed reading it.
