Publisher's summary

When a desperate king threatens Dion and everything he loves, only dangerous magic can keep him safe.

Dion, now king of Xanthos, is finally in command of the naval fleet he's always dreamed of. But his hopes for peace are jeopardized when King Palemon, in dire need of ships to rescue his starving people from the frozen wastelands of the north, invades the Salesian city of Malakai.

Too weak to confront Dion directly, Palemon turns to magic: mysterious copper chains from the lost civilization of Aleuthea, which have the potential to control dragons...and Dion.

With the people he loves in danger, and his own freedom at risk, Dion's only hope is Chloe and the power she struggles to tame.

Better and Better

This series is like a fine wine. It just keeps getting better. I am hooked on the amazing world-building and fantastic characters this author brings to life. While there are a lot of moving parts, and a huge cast, the author skillfully weaves this story in such a way that the reader is able to keep up with it all-- no easy feat. The story line itself is like a majestic tapestry made of so many threads: each thread is necessary for the grand design to be completely realized and appreciated.

If you are new to this series, don't jump in here. Start at the beginning of the series with "Golden Age" so that you're able to enjoy the entire masterpiece.

Spoiler alert

I love the characters but was not happy with the addition of Isabella. It almost seemed as if the author tried too hard to add her and then quickly did away with her when he didn't like how that was going.

I really wanted this to be the last.

I enjoyed the book and the writing. The narrator remains great! BUT, I really wish the series ended, it would have easily been done and would have made sense the way this book was going, but nope. One paragraph saves the enemy almost like an after thought. Honestly, who knows how many books there will be in this SERIES, at this rate probably 6.

Simon Vance is a wonderful performer

The story is bright to life with many characters with Simon Vance as the story teller. As always James Maxwell doesn't disappoint. I highly recommend these books.
