I chose this book because of the title. Dragons are my favourite fantasy creatures. Sadly I was disappointed in this respect. Apart from a brief appearance, the dragons did not show up until the end of the book. This is a shame as the story is quite good but doesn’t live up to the expectations of the title. I would have enjoyed The Dragon King much more if I hadn’t been waiting for the dragons to appear.

Still, the worlds of The Dragon King were well crafted although I did feel a bit out of my depth at the beginning as the people and places were confusing. The author showed much more ingenuity when revealing the human way of life and social interaction. The Dragon King is a pleasant book with adventure, intrigue and romance. The planets appear medieval but have light technology based on zeel which is only found on Pelicosia. A good read with a well thought out plot.
