Another excellent installment in the series. Flamefall is that rare success of a second book in a trilogy, expanding on the world and character building of the first book while simultaneously setting up the third book and holding its own plotline. A prefect mix that had me speeding easily through this book.

 In the first book we saw our young riders struggling to find their way among adults and the politicking of a young government. In this our riders realize their own power and strengths, although they still have their own flaws to work through. I was begging for these kids to figure it out, even as their painful story built their development. 

This series is setting itself up to be amongst my favorite dragon books, I only wish the dragons had more of their own voices!

This was more of a world building book/political intrigue, way less action than the first book. I love the addition of Griff and Sparker. It ended on a cliffhanger, the last 50 pages were more action packed than the rest of the book. Parts of the book made me a little frustrated reading the teenagers make terrible choices unable to see the bigger picture while somehow still being left in charge of things.

I think I need to come back later and read digital or paper copy - audio is hard to follow.
