A Fire in the Sky by Sophie Jordan
In a land where dragons have been hunted to extinction, royal whipping girl Tamsyn is married off in a bit of political wordplay and must rapidly find her feet in unfamiliar surroundings…
I borrowed this one on a whim, and it turned out to be ideal for the period between Christmas and New Year, with a lot of people at the bach and concentration in short supply. I haven’t rated it since I read it purely for fun.
It was reasonably predictable, but I didn’t mind because it was pacy and thus kept me entertained and interested. My only real quibble is that, based on the title, I was expecting rather more on the dragon front.
After finishing, I found out that this is a prequel to the YA Firelight series. I haven’t read Firelight (but likely would have, had it been published a few years earlier - it sounds right up teenage Mel’s alley) but evidently it’s not necessary as I got on just fine with this one, but it is worth noting that this new series is very much aimed at adults, not YA.
A pacy, entertaining romantasy - perfect for any situation requiring a brain break.
