Description

Will adapting to a changing world make one young woman lose touch with where she came from?

Far from the kingdom of Torvald, on the Western Isles near the coast, Sea Dragons rule the skies. Lila is the daughter of the Raider leader, destined to take his place one day aboard their plundering ships. Her people value only what shiny trinkets they can get their hands on, but she aspires to much more than that: Lila wants the Raiders to become Dragon Mercenaries, dragon riders who help protect merchant fleets and navies from attack. Her father Kasian is skeptical, but a young monk named Danu—with a quest of his own—comes bearing a prophecy claiming that Lila is the lost heir of Roskilde, a born Dragon Rider.

With Danu’s guidance, Lila finds the unruly dragon she’s destined to bond with—but the mismatched pair soon learn that much more than just their futures is at stake.

A terrific start to the new series that builds off the last series "Upon Dragon's Breath". In the same universe, it picks up 20 years after. A great book for all lovers of dragons.

I received this novel from net galley and the publisher for an honest review. Thank you!!
I have read Ms.Richardson's dragon series "Upon Dragon's Breath", which I enjoyed. This start into a new dragon series in the same universe did not disappoint!! It is set 20 years after the "Upon Dragon's Breath" series and it mentions Saffron and Bower and a bit of their legacy.
Lila is the adopted daughter of a sea raider, but wants to use dragons in their quests and give up the life of raiding other ships. She wants people to pay for their services of protection by being dragon riders. She find dragon eggs but is chased away by a dragon and meets Danu, a mage in training and has a natural ability to speak with dragons. Danu has been searching for Lila, for she is the one the prophecy speaks about. Lila is the true heir to Roskilde, but is currently ruled by a tyrant who destroyed the royal family 17 years ago. Lila and Danu return to where the dragon eggs are in hope for her to form a bond with one them. However, Lila ends up forming a bond with a rare Phoenix Dragon named Crux. Crux, Lila, and Danu begin a journey to stop the king of Roskilde. Danu is angry when he discovers some of the witches on the island he grew up on are siding with the king of Roskilde. The West Witches are not supposed to take sides and they are supposed to keepers of the prophecies, which one of the witches told the king, who now chases them. Lila, Danu, Crux, and the Sea Raiders will all have to work together if they want to stop Roskilde and the evil witches. I am looking forward to the next novel in the series!!
