Dragonworn, book 41 of the Dark-Hunters/Were-Hunters/Dream Hunters series, by Sherrilyn Kenyon (McQueen) @mysherrilyn. This is a reread of this series for me. Long overdue, at that! 😂 I am reading this series in the order from Sherrilyn’s website. 

Such a fantastic book! Wow! I absolutely loved Falcyn & Medea. Falcyn because he gets a happy ending & Medea because she gets a new one. MF, Were-Hunters, Daimons, PNR, Avalon, Merlin, what else could you ask for? 🤩

I love Sherrilyn Kenyon and every time her books come up on chirp I snag them, even if they are a re-read. This was not and I had to actually look up the books because I swore there was a dragon book I read (and there is. It's Dragonswan and I have read that one.).

This story is about Falcyn, a dragon with a vendetta against anything Greek, of course the MFC Medea is the granddaughter of the greek god Apollo. Apollo has sent a plague that will destroy everything Medea holds dear and she needs Falcyn's help to stop it. Only he really, really doesn't want to help her. So it's a typical Sherrilyn story and it sets up further stories in the series because how can these two NOT fall for each other? They're a perfect match in every way and I loved them.

Overall, if you love the Sherrilyn Kenyon books you will love this one like I did. I only made it four stars because it just didn't quite hit my parameters for five stars. But solid book, storyline, and execution as always.

Too many dead people that weren’t really dead.

Loved this book. Definitely a page turner. Finished it in one day. You can read so many possibilities in the book for spin offs so I can’t wait to see what is written next.

I was a little disappointed in this. I found it hard to follow. Plus most of it was spent on other planes or somewhere. I did enjoy the narration.

I would love to see more omnibuses, I feel like bind-ups of these stories are the best.

I am chasing the plot and the overall story instead of the romances so much - not that the romances aren't good because they are - I have gotten to be really invested in the characters, and I am always waiting to see who ends up with who. But once you pick up a book and boy meets girl... 28 books in.. I think I have the general storyline of that bit figured out.

Anyways back to the bind-up thing, you get so much more of the story and these are such nice reads, that you just can't put down because you have to find out what's next.. its nothing to burn through 1000 pages.

This one took me forever to finish. I felt it was very slow going and didn't really enjoy it till the last third of the book.

I love the fact that although these books can be read on their own they definitely come into their own if read as a series. Characters popping in and out from previous books and remembering their own stories is fun. This one was definitely better than the last one.

This book was kinda meh for me until everything started happening and that last sentence. I'm excited to see where that last sentence goes and how much meaning and foreshadowing is packed into it.

It’s time for this series to end.

These books are really repetitive. And this series has gone on so long, I can’t even remember what the main conflict is anymore. Add in the fact that she’s now intertwining series that weren’t originally part of this one, or necessary to read to understand, and I’m just ready for it to be over.
