Beyond that, I believe the novel started at maybe the worst possible start. I either needed more of Violet’s life before joining the Riders or less. I had a sliver of it, and it served only to push back the action without doing any concrete service to the characters or the plot.

First of all, an adult spicy how to train your dragon? Sold.

Semi-predictable plot but still worth reading? Definitely.
