Compared with most YA, the story of Fall of the Dragon Prince is unraveled rather slowly, but that's a good thing. It is a well-paced novel with a fantastic story and awesome characters.

After the revered king Toran passes, he leaves the kingdom with five heirs, hidden from the world, spread far and wide. This story follows two main characters: Torith and Reann. I loved both of them. They are so oppositely different from each other and I think that is part of the appeal of this book. You have Torith, on one side of the kingdom, facing physical trials as he prepares for a cross-country race on dragon back. If that sentence on its own wasn't enough to convince you to read this, you also have Reann, a nosy know-it-all palace ward sleuthing around the palace trying to unravel the mystery of the heirs.

The supporting characters left me a little bit disappointed, but after events unfolded in the book, I am excited to see will happen to the main characters and how these supporting characters will play a role (or not) in the future. Because all of this was resolved, it still gets my five stars.

The ending wasn't all too surprising, but the way everything came together at the end was great. Often when I read YA, everything is left on a cliffhanger and it leaves me with more questions than I had at the beginning of the book. This one definitely didn't answer everything, but it had a clear ending that left me satisfied with the book's conclusion while making me excited for when the next book comes out.

I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
