First line/s: "As far as jail cells go, this one's pretty decent."
My comments: This 12-hour book could've easily been told in six, there was so much repetition of the same old anxieties and worries and passionate scenes. The story itself was quite fascinating: shape shifting dragons who have come through a crack in the world, and in that span unable to return to their world, have more or less gone mad. Therefore they attack with mighty fire everything in their path. The world as humans know it is now forever changed and that's where the story starts, in the desolate poverty-stricken area that is left of Dallas. The story is mostly told by Claudia, with a few chapters in the dragon-man's voice. Not a bad story all-in-all, jut too much of it!
Goodreads synopsis: Years ago, the skies ripped open and the world was destroyed in fire and ash. Dragons - once creatures of legend - are the enemy. Vicious and unpredictable, they rule the skies of the ruined cities, forcing humanity to huddle behind barricades for safety.
Claudia's a survivor. She scrapes by as best as she can in a hard, dangerous world. When she runs afoul of the law, she's left as bait in dragon territory. She only has one chance to survive - to somehow 'tame' a dragon and get it to obey her.
Except the dragon that finds her is as wild and brutal as any other...and he's not interested in obeying.
What he is interested in is a mate.
