I am always looking or more dragon books so to stumble across a book that has different types of dragons/dragon magic/dragon shifters? I was sold.
The pace of the beginning was a bit fast and choppy. It felt like we were rushing through things quickly to set up the scene so the main story could happen. In some chapters, almost every couple of sentences we were time jumping from scene to scene. There are a lot of characters in this book and at the beginning it felt like we didn’t need them all at once as they didn’t really serve too much of a purpose, felt a bit like overkill. Towards the end I started to see their value!
I struggled to believe in the relationships set up at the start. They were almost established way too early on in a rushed way so I just couldn’t get on board with it. It almost felt like it was forced so it would make future book developments hit harder. However, I was obsessed with those later developments and really enjoyed the pace of that. A much more interesting dynamic.
Chapter 37 was the best part of the book. I liked the build up and while some parts of this book felt really predictable, I enjoyed these plot twist revelations - they hit the spot!! I think there has been some good set up for future books and speculation for further revelations which I’m excited about.
Some of the decisions at the end (such as potentially killing off characters and other typical end of book moves) again felt forced or added in for shock factor. I didn’t really care for these things. It almost felt like it tied up the loose ends a bit too easily, just to be able to move the main plot along rather than having real purpose.
It was an imperfect read but it was fun and I will be continuing on with the series!

I did enjoy this series and would recommend it! I definitely think the 1st book was my favourite. The middle 2 were fun but the 4th one felt like it wI did enjoy this series and would recommend it! I definitely think the 1st book was my favourite. The middle 2 were fun but the 4th one felt like it wrapped up too quickly and too neatly.
We were building up to this final big event across the first 3 books but the ending somehow felt rushed. Being the longest book in the series I felt like we could have cut down so much of the first 3/4 of the book and focused on the ending!!!
Where were Lorain’s POV chapters??? What happened, it felt like we lost a big chunk of the main 2 characters (both narrative wise and personality wise). We started focusing on too many of the side character and subplots so it felt like we lost a bit of the overall story, tension and plot twists that made the first few books sooo good.
Overall I enjoyed the series and would still recommend it, I just wish we had a stronger ending to the story!...more
3.75 ⭐️ Pacing and focus felt different to book 1, focusing less on the plot and more on the romance. I’m not mad about it though.

I think the overall plot development took a backseat in this book. We are missing that diverse group of characters, individual character development, fast paced action we had in book 1. I had a lot of questions that still are unanswered but because we got sooo little of this specific character dynamic in book 1 so I think it was intentional in book 2 to have it be the focus. I’m sure book 3 will bridge the two together with an epic conclusion and all our questions will be answered (or so I’m hoping).
I’m simply obsessed with the dream stalker!!! More!!!! I need book 3 now. Also, Raphael… bye!...more
