⭐⭐⭐⭐ Was I hooked by that book? Yes. Dragon Arisen exposes more of Zora’s dysfunctionality, while revealing shocking secrets and expanding the Dragon Kings’ knowledge and understanding of the universe and the realms in it.

Alasdair’s disappointing reunion with the dragons on Zora is making him feel restless. He sets out to find Merrill, who has been missing for quite some time now. A baby’s cries in the woods lead him to Lotti, who keeps herself isolated from everybody and is currently on the run, trying to find a new place to live. When Lotti overhears information about Merrill, they work together to go rescue him.

MY THOUGHTS

Alasdair and Lotti had a rocky start, but once they found a common goal, they put all their fears and differences aside and managed to work together really well. I love how Alasdair was able to utilize Lotti’s magic by using it to enhance his own. Lotti had a rapid development arc from believing she had no magic at all (despite what was happening to her), to discovering who and what she really was, and in the end being able to use her magic more effectively.

This book is an important puzzle piece in the story of the Dragon Kings. We find out a little bit more about where they and the dragons came from, but there are also a lot of questions left hanging. I enjoyed the ending, with all the snippets of various characters and where they are in their journeys. It definitely left me wanting more.

By now we’ve met a whole lot of Dragon Kings. The numbers are becoming a bit mind-boggling. This leaves me wondering just how many dragon clans and dragons there were on Earth and how many of them exist now on Zora?

I can highly recommend this exciting series is you like dragons, magic, and romance. It is best to read them in order.
