justjukka: Both Novik and McCaffrey take great care in developing the worlds for their respective series. If you like one, you may very well like the other.
sandstone78: Bonds with dragons in science-fictional societies- I read these two series in my early teen years and they are inextricably intertwined in my memory.
allisongryski: They both have a fascinating fantasy world setting with some parallels (weyrs/dragons vs aeries/angels) and important traditions that have been forgotten and must be renewed. They also both have a duty-driven hero, a strong, resourceful heroine who begins the story as a servant but was not born to that life. Even the nature of the romance, which is something like "arranged" is similar between the stories.… (plus d'informations)
humouress: Although the [Castle Glower] series is aimed at a younger audience, it also deals with the issues and the wonder of bonding with a mythical creature.
aulandez: Lost World setting in which simplicity has been used to avoid the past failings of humanity. Similar use of sci-fi tools, similar characterization, straightforward yet not overly simple.
TheBooknerd: Both epic series feature a young but clever leader, his intrepid female "partner in crime", great world-building, and -- oh yeah! Dragons!
This book was fun. Its got people-who-strongly-dislike-each-other-to-lovers, its got dragons, its got time travel, its got a strange mashup of science and fantasy. The only thing that really irritated me was the names, and the book did begin with a lot of jargon, but it was smooth sailing after the first chapter. ( )
This was disappointing. First off, it's not fantasy at all, it's definitely science fiction. "Dragons" is extremely misleading in this sense (not that I like dragons, but just to clarify).
Ultimately, this is a story about time travel, a force organized to protect the world from a recurring threat that, in the intervals, people forget about. Unfortunately the characters are all completely flat or one-dimensional, the author is extremely cavalier about time travel and it's effects, and the story becomes predictable as soon as you are given enough information to make any guesses about what will happen next. It was a chore to read this, even though it was so short.
I will not be continuing this series, and don't regret it. 2 stars only because the book had promise, but I thought about 1 star as well. ( )
The first couple of chapters threw a bunch of terms that I was not familiar with. Then it started becoming quite interesting and I was hooked. Also about halfway thru, I realized there was a glossary and info in the back of the book that would have helped in those first couple of chapters in the beginning. ( )
I had forgotten how much I loved this series. Thank goodness I refound it. I was looking for a GOOD dragon story after a middle of the road cookie cutter dragon story unrelieved by average prose.
There are enough books in the series that I'll have plenty to keep me between new releases.
Het verhaal krijgt van mij de volle vijf sterren, maar het taalgebruik in het boek is dermate abominabel dat ik er een ster vanaf trek. F'lar gedraagt zich als een kleuter, en hij moet leren met z'n handen van Lessa af te blijven. Als ik nog een keer lees dat "F'lar Lessa door elkaar schudde", dan krijg ik een beroerte. Ik ga nu deel twee in het engels lezen, en hopen dat het in de originele taal wat beter loopt. ( )
