What to Expect

→ Expect the dragon bond to be as emotionally significant as the romance
→ The dragon is usually a character with personality, not just a mount
→ Physical danger is real and persistent — the body count in these books tends to be high
→ The academic or military structure of the dragon rider world creates natural rivals
→ Often features a found family built around shared danger
