“To be kin to a dragon,” Nayimathun said, “you must not only have a soul of water. You must have the blood of the sea, and the sea is not always pure. It is not any one thing. There is darkness in it, and danger, and cruelty. It can raze great cities with its rage. Its depths are unknowable; they do not see the touch of the sun. To be a Miduchi is not to be pure, Tané.

Wow. I’ve literally never read anything like this. Nothing was predictable. The story was Incredible. I’m so used to reading YA this was so refreshing. It wasn’t filled with tropes and cliches. I fell in live with the characters and the writing. There was something magical about this tale- as if you were there but floating between it all.
