Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 262
Compiled by intrepid journalist Neve Pride, this archive of recordings spans the months after dragons emerged on earth, chronicling the communities that sprang up amid the destruction, the scientists, military leaders, and experts searching for a defense, and those steadfastly seeking the missing. Neve and her young daughter Bex travel among the wreckage speaking to those left behind and surviving, against all odds. Neve records everything for history, and in the hopes of locating a clue as to where the dragons came from and how one might stop them.

For some it’s an opportunity. For others it’s a moment to question their faith: In God, in science, in everything. Still others try to keep the world running in the face of absurdity and uncertainty. And then there are the billions looking to the sky and wondering how a thing that was always just there is now... something absolutely impossible.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Fantastic book with a fantastic narrator
The book takes place as a letter Kyra is writing to her uncle. It goes into detail about what happened during her first trial to become a Magister, and introduces a character whom is tied for my favorite, Kyrian. During the story, they go to a hidden monestary and are tasked with fixing a malfunctioning device in the World Tree. After realizing all aren't as it seems, they have a decision to make. Will they complete their task and become Magisters, or is their task more sinister than it first appears?
As in The Reach Between Worlds, the characters are spot on. Kurian is a draconic halfling who is tends to be extremely reckless because of his strength, though I can't remember a scene where he put anyone else but himself at risk. Like Taro, he definitely acts like the teen he is. He is a class clown, knowing lots of people, but very few people actually know him. Kurian is an acrobat, using his draconic reflexes to perform death defying feats. Growing up shunned by the dragons, he cannot transform into a dragon form. Having both the powers of the Arclight and the Overlight, he is much stronger in magistry than the other trial goers, and feels his team won't need to do anything, he can do everything.
We don't learn a lot more about the geography of the world in this book, mainly just the island that the trial takes on, but we do learn a lot about the history of the world. Pairing well with book 3, we start to really learn about one of Nuruthil's commanders, as well as the father of the dragons, Craetos.
I started the series with book 1, but this is a fantastic starting point if are unsure about getting into the series. Why Dragons Hide is a shorter book, being more of a novella than a novel, and it is about half the price of book 1 as well. It is out on Audible and for Kindle, the narrator on Audible (Emily Wylie) is absolutely amazing. Sadly, we don't get more Kurian until book 3 (understandable, as this book was released between books 2 and 3). Overall, I'd say this book rates a solid 4.5/5.
