The title of this book is soooo misleading. Originally, I didn't pick it up because I didn't really want to read a book about dragons. But after reading an interview, and some reviews I decided to give it a shot. "Fate of Dragons" and "Dragons Rising" seem like the author is trying to capitalize of the dragon hype currently going on. This book is about way more kinds of beings than dragons. I don't even think we spend over 50% of the time with dragons. All of the beings were pretty equally covered. (Dragons/Elves/Merpeople/human) It seems like it's more about "Fate of Kynds" and "Earth Queen Rising" but maybe it will become more clear in future books why the titles are dragon focused. Overall this looks to be an interesting start to a series. Lots of political intrigue, and drama. I was instantly drawn in by the idea that there was only one human left, and different kynds would have to work together to fight a common foe. The head hoping was a little jarring at places. I love multi pov stories, I just can't put my finger on what was off about this one. Maybe the characters were too similar in voice? I don't know, multiple times I had to figure out whose head I was in. The one sided insta love was weird. I was completely confused at the nude scene, why/how/wtf, and at first I thought her attraction was an affect of the spell she was under, but I guess it wasn't? I assume this is apart of the "every book MUST have a love interest" movement. It wasn't needed in this story, and really just cheapened her.
