The side characters are occasionally interesting, but since we're trapped in the mindset of the protagonist, the shittiest teenager in the multiverse, they don't save the book.
All in all, technically proficient but emotionally offputting. Also, dragons are not in the book enough to justify naming the book after them

This is a revenge story, and don't expect it to be anything but that. Personally, I was a little disappointed that other elements of the world weren't explored more. This book hints at a lot of interesting possible stories and then just sticks with Tau and his single track.
Tau is my other issue with this story. I think he's well written, and he's not intrinsically unlikable, but all of the characters around him are just so much more interesting than he is. I want to here Zuri's training or Kellen's struggles. Tau's just okay.
