    I enjoyed the second book of this trilogy so much I bought this finale as soon as I finished it; I wasn't disappointed. Immensely satisfying plotting - within its fantasy setting of a world of dragons and different peoples, it reflects with intense fidelity the choices, challenges, risks and opportunities of real life.

    Number two in a high-fantasy trilogy. Thrilling plot, lots of action, and complex character development as well as epic themes of power, love, tragedy, and justice. And dragons.

    A slowburner for me; then it suddenly became a page-turner. Set some long way into the future, this is Aotearoa after Plagues have killed billions and rising sea levels have made parts of Wellington uninhabitable. The dystopian elements of this society are revealed very gradually; like 16-year-old Kieran, we’re lulled by the familiar, until he’s forced by events to make some brave choices. With themes including genetic engineering, climate change, freedom and autonomy, authoritarianism and love, this would be a really good text for senior students.
