Fantastic friendly dragons, telepathic wolves and humans, a space ship crew bent on destroying the planet, and a feudal system under reform by “spacers” from Earth who make the planet Drako their second home. What more could a reader want? Diane Rapp’s imagination appears boundless and her ability to bring a story to life is impressive. I enjoyed this third installment of the Drako adventure as much as the first two novels in the Heirs to the Throne series.
The story is complex and thought provoking. The plots and subplots weave threads of space travel, life extension and cloning, mind control, telepathic communication with animals, and evolving social structure into a fascinating tapestry. As the tale winds to an exciting and suspenseful conclusion, the humans, dragons, and wolves must join forces to defend the planet using cooperation and ingenuity, since most of the planet’s previous technology has been abandoned and outlawed.
The rich descriptions of Drako and its inhabitants transport the reader to another place and time. Diane does a marvelous job describing the beautiful intelligent dragons and the experience of humans who fly on their backs and once again, the wise telepathic wolves play a central role in helping the humans overcome Jarrack’s treachery. I recommend this unique and very intelligent book for readers who like adventure, romance, science fiction, or fantasy. It’s all in there!
Thank you for the comprehensive review. I know that science fiction is not a genre that you usually read, so this special review means even more to me. You're an honorary dragon writer now.
ReplyDeleteArleen! Did you get zapped with a little mind control while reading DD? Truly, this review needs to become the headline for DD's promotion! You captured the essence and nuances of this fantastical novel. Of course, you are the author of those Darcy cruise mysteries...Duh! Could expect no less from you :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so very kind, Dody.
DeleteIt's so exciting to see the cover designed by Luke O'Donnell. He's a talented young artist and did a great job making this scene come to life.
