—Gracias…, Sarkan.
Su nombre sabía a fuego y a alas, a volutas de humo, a sutileza y a fuerza, y al rasposo susurro de las escamas.


Y sé que los personajes son un complemento de la historia, pero yo simplemente quisiera extraer a Agnieska y Dragón de este libro y hacerles algo mejor.

I recall reading a sampler for this book and being really intrigued. I wasn't able to read this book until much later, but it delivered on that promise wholeheartedly!

Tenía muchas esperanzas puestas en este libro y no me ha fallado.
