The Lost Queen tells the story of two sisters, two dragons, from Vietnamese legends. The premise of the story was intriguing, and the bending of time and space was inventive. I enjoyed learning about the myths and prophecies, and how they were woven into our story. I found Jolie and her “family” to be lovable characters. The first half of the book sets up much of the story to come, but I did find the first part of the second half a little repetitive and predictable. The ending wrapped up some loose ends, but felt a little bit of a let down at the very end. I was clicking on the kindle going where’s the rest. Overall, I found it intriguing enough to read through to the end.
