After being introduced to both Percy and Brandt in the previous series, Hidden Species, I have to admit I was always curious about the kind of person Percy was. We always saw Percy at a bit of a distance - someone in a position of power and leadership. Now that he's more or less retired, I was really looking forward to seeing more of Percy, and what he's been up to. 

And what he's been up to has been crushing on a certain leader of the dragon clan for the past little while since the storyline of the previous series wrapped up. And seeing Brandt and Percy together, it's obvious Percy's crush is reciprocated. 

Where Percy is level-headed, calm, and quite the planner (yet also teasing and playful), Brandt is often taken to fits of whimsy, very playful, and ready for hijinks. And yet they balance each other out very well, and their banter is absolutely top notch. (By this point, we should all know how much I absolutely love amazing banter.)

I really enjoyed that the stakes of this book were much lower than the preceding series. We had a lot of high octane drama, and now we get to sit back and watch the dragons come into their own, and find their own happiness. And the sneaky bits involving our faves from the GSC don't hurt much, either.
