Dream of Dragons by Aja James
4.0
3.5 stars
This is an Arthurian retelling, with dragons, phoenix's, time travel, magic and lots of sexy times.
This story starts of with a bang, literally, the opening scene is some hot guy on guy action, with who I thought were our main characters based on the synopsis, but Ere and Sorin tend to be more background supporting cast in this story even though it's technically about Ere repaying a debt he incurred when he was allowed a rebirth.
We mostly follow Rui(dragon in human form) and Wolfe(dragonslayer in the dark ages) who are incredibly attracted to each other, which confuses Rui who's never had these feelings before and worries Wolfe because he's a bastard and unworthy.
I don't often enjoy Arthurian retellings because I tend to find the plots very sluggish, but this was a fun, very sexy romp where Guinevere is the villain of the piece. I hope Ere and Sorin are more of the focus in the next book though, I like the contrast between the characters and would like to see more of the depth between the bonded mates.
I received this as an ARC through NetGalley and IBPA
