I like dragon stories. This one is particularly enjoyable because parts of the book are from the viewpoint of the dragon, Alpheratz. And he isn't a completely bad dragon either. Most of his attacks were either because someone attacked him first, or in retaliation for men killing his mate and their eggs. Sadly, only a small part of the book was about Alpheratz.
Most of the book was actually about Gill, a character that I liked more as the book went on and he started to show his courage and morals through the endless drinking he had been doing to forget the death of his wife and child. And most of the problems in this story came because of the Prince Bishop of Mirabay, Amaury, the typical over ambitious man that is willing to throw anybody's life away to get what he wants. Solene was a nice addition to the story because a story can always use a good sorceress to make the story better.
This is the first book I have read by Duncan Hamilton, but after reading this, I look forward to reading more by him.
