Violet wants to be a scribe anything other than a dragon rider but with a general for a mom and a brave dragon rider sister there isn't a choice. There certainly isn't much of a chance she will get through the entry contest let alone get paired with a dragon and survive training. Not only is she less than 100% physically ready to do the challenge but most of the other contestants want her to fail (and by fail I mean die). Alliances are made. Challenges are met and a new warrior is born. Those who can't handle the heat are dragon toast. The characters all work for me, the relationship both mental and physical between dragons and their chosen riders is well developed and there is a bad boy romance. This new fantasy series is for those of us who thought the GAME OF THRONES dragons got a raw deal and readers who enjoyed the battles and political backstabbing of HUNGER GAMES and RED RISING. Works for older YA readers and adults won't be embarrassed to show the cover. Ready for the next installment now. 4 1/2 stars
