VM Reviews: Seraphina

What to expect: There is a lot of detail, but it’s not too much. (It’s not like The Priory of the Orange Tree.) I haven’t read the second book, so i don’t know if the author keeps up the good plot and writing, but we’ll see.

 

Plot: Dragons and humans have signed a peace treaty 40 years ago, but both sides are aggressive and not peaceful. Our main character Seraphina has knowledge of the dragons and tries to evade trouble (unsuccessfully). There are a lot of interesting and different characters in the book, and I enjoyed the world building a lot. 

 

Reader Note: This took a while for me to read, and by a while I mean three years. I dropped this book and then picked it up recently. I’m genuinely happy I picked it up, because I enjoyed it immensely. Also here, dragons have a human form, and are very actually developed with their own philosophies but have some problems with being human and handling emotions, it’s entertaining to watch. But they don’t know our ‘customs’, like wearing clothes most of the time, which causes secondhand embarrassment.
