Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - effective storytelling [no spoilers]
"Dragon Blood" completes "The Hurog Duology" roughly four years past "Dragon Bones" by continuing the effortless character and plot devices mingled with exciting adventures and a satisfying amount of practical magic. Regrettably the engaging series ends, nevertheless any subsequent adventures involving other individuals would be welcome.

Wardwick along with his allies have been rebuilding Hurog and during Ward's available time receives magical training from Oreg. Tisala, who appears briefly in the prior story as Haverness's daughter, supports the compliment of supplementary characters such as half-dragon Oreg and the now-likable Tosten. The ruthless King Jakoven and magician Jade Eyes are the ideal antagonists in the focused story filled with great characters.

There are disturbing insinuations and moments, which may be questionable for young readers. A detailed map of the significant terrains and comprehensive appendix would have been useful.

Thank you.



Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Worthy follow-up
"Dragon Blood" is the sequel to "Dragon Bones" and I would certainly recommend that you don't read this one before you've read the book before it - I would be incredibly confused if I had done that!

Probably my most helpful comment about this book is that if you liked "Dragon Bones" you'll like this one - they are similar books in terms of subject matter (following the same characters) and cover similar topics (fighting, wizardry, magic).

Patricia Briggs is excellent at writing stories with depth. Politics plays a significant role here as well as the fantasy staples of battles, wizardry, confusion etc. There's a love story in this book which is well written, gentle and not at all cheesy. Ward of Hurog the main character is tortured and Briggs writes excellently how he feels following this experience - his shame and his fear that the memories will affect him when he comes up against these opponents in future.

If you've come to these books through "Moon Called" you'll find them very different but still with the mark of Briggs' excellent writing skills.




Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - good read
It is a very good story. Although the author dwells a little too much on the suffering of the characters, the book makes for a good read.
