As Randy Jackson (American Idol) would say, "That was just okay for me, Dawg."
This typical middle novel concerns the twin sons born to Melisande: Marcus, the son of the King of Idlyswylde, and Ven (short for Vengeance), the son of the dragon who (in the body of the human Grald) raped her. Most of the book focuses on the development of both boys from age 6 to 16. Neither of them know about the other. Ven is half dragon (his legs are dragon's legs) and is being raised by Bell More...

Better than the first! The twist at the end had me completely floored...Also, the main characters were more developed in this book than in the last, especially Ven.

I liked this book more than the previous. It was a decent story not muddled with some of the garbage from the previous. Although it was still missing "something" for me.

This book is book two of a three book series. Due to availability at my library, I read books two and three out of order. After having read books one and three, I debated whether to go ahead and read book two because I felt quite satisfied that I had a good understanding of the entire story without it.

Not as well written as the first one, but it still does a good job of carrying on a fascinating plotline.

I just love the main character and the whole dragon political intrigue.

It's been some time since I enjoyed a story this much. The pace was excellent and the story gripping. I stayed up past midnight finishing it last night!

Not as good as the first book. The characters not as interesting but it set up for the story for the third book.

Very "young-adultish," but still a good read. Margaret Weiss is one of my favorite "older" authors of fantasy.
