Dragon – This, that, and the other-my thoughts

The Uncrowned King (The Bastard Duology Book 2) by Donna Grant

5 Stars

Entirely entertaining!

This is part 2 of the Bastard Duology and well worth reading. Donna Grant left a cliffhanger at the end of Book 1 and this picks up immediately after. Derek, our main male character and a dragon is written exceptionally well, and Kora our hellhound female main character shows that she is able to change her world view and prejudices. I loved this Duology! Ms. Grant’s writing reminds me of how the very first Warrior and Dragon King books are written, hot men and capable women in situations that they didn’t want or expect. With an expansive plot line and many characters in supporting roles a new reader would benefit from reading earlier books in Donna’s Dark Universe. She always manages to create new personalities in every book, with new challenges for all the intertwined characters to overcome. If you like paranormal books, this series has some surprising twists and turns and is well worth your time.

I received and ARC of this book from the author through BookFunnel and this is my honest opinion.

The Uncrowned King – The Bastard Duology #2 by Donna Grant

I would burn the world for him…

My people have been hunted to extinction by dragons. I am the last of my kind. Forever running. Forever alone.

Then I met him. Dangerous. Carnal. Dragon And utterly magnetic. I had no defenses against the passion that claimed us. Each time his lips touched mine, each time his arms held me, I fell deeper.

And I fell hard.

My mortal enemy became my world. The very reason for my existence.

My one and only.

Until our forever was violently snatched away. Now, I’m hunted, once more.

But I’m not running this time. I’m fighting for love.

For him.

A hellhound facing her past. A dragon reclaiming his throne. Forbidden lovers will face the ultimate test. A Dragon King duology from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Donna Grant.

Dragon Born (Dragon Kings #8) by Donna Grant

She’s the most dangerous being alive…and the only one I crave.

I feel her across realms. Through the vast emptiness of space, weaving among the stars. She is the Queen of Violets. Powerful, shrewd, defiant. Utterly exquisite. Feared among her own and pursued by all.

She is the Dragon Queen.

I was an ordinary MI5 agent before being thrust into the world of Dragons Kings, Fae, Reapers, and magic. But it was a world I soon discovered I was bound to by blood from my Druid ancestors.

The instant we met, I was hers. Forever. I would have ripped the moon from the sky for her. I would have razed worlds. Then she deceived me.

Yet, I can’t stop thinking about her. Craving her. She’s in my very psyche, like a fever that burns through my veins like dragon fire. Scorching and eternal.

When I sense a malicious danger closing in around her, I defy every rule to get to her.

My love.

My queen.

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Donna Grant delivers one of the most anticipated books in the exhilarating Dragon King series.

1001 Dark Nights Dragon Kiss: A Dark Kings Novella

by Donna Grant

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Donna Grant’s latest installment picks up where Dragon Arisen leaves off. Alasdair and Lotti return to face the biggest foe the Dragon Kings have met yet—and the stakes have never been higher.

Lotti has come a long way since finding love with Alasdair and uncovering her true origins as a Star Person. She has embraced the magic she once shunned—as well as the label of Destroyer by her own. And it has made her powerful. But will it be enough to stand against her family as they target the Dragon Kings?

Alasdair has faced many adversaries who rose up against the Dragon Kings. But nothing could prepare him for the Star People and the discovery that they once enslaved his kind. It’s more than his life on the line this time. It’s the very existence of all dragons. It will take Alasdair and Lotti, together, to defeat their enemy.

Dragon Frost: A Dragon Kings Novella (Dragon Kings #6.5) by Donna Grant

5 Stars

The Fae Realm

This short novella from Donna Grant revisits Constantine and Rhiannon. They are still on Zora, and on Earth, Winter is approaching. Rhiannon is a Fae and feels her emotions deeply. She missis Earth and the turning of the seasons. Constantine knows this, and this is the story of how he shows his love and appreciation of her.

This is a well written novella, which showcases two of the main characters of Donna Grant’s Dark Universe. The characters are true to their written personalities which makes this an enjoyable read.

I was given an ARC of the novella by Donna Grant through BookFunnel and this is my honest opinion.

Heart of Glass (Skye Druids #3) by Donna Grant

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Donna Grant returns to the beautiful and mysterious Isle of Skye with a captivating tale of magic, mystery, and unexpected passion.

A desire that won’t be denied.

Ferne Crawford is a Seer with unique abilities that set her apart from other Druids. She once ignored her magic with tragic results. So, when she’s bombarded with visions of a great evil that call her to a place she’s been warned never to go, she’s powerless to resist. Her life takes a drastic turn the moment she arrives on Skye and encounters a handsome, valiant stranger. Theo makes her ache for his touch. Their meeting stirs an explosive passion, awakening a yearning that only he can satisfy. However, there’s more than the malice which brought her to the isle that intends her harm.

Detective Inspector Theo Frasier carries the weight of the isle and his people on his shoulders. With more Druid murders and no leads on who’s controlling the killing mist, he’s beginning to feel the strain. The last thing he needs is anything—or anyone—distracting him. But once he meets Ferne, he can’t get her out of his head. Or his heart. She fills his every thought, day and night. His need for her consumes him, pushing everything else aside. But will his love be enough to save them from the growing threat?

Heart of Glass (Skye Druids #3) by Donna Grant

5 Stars

Exciting story in a well written book.

This book and story remind me of Donna Grant’s earlier books in the Dark Sword, Dark Warriors, and Dark Kings series. These three series, along with her Reapers series are the backbone and back history of the two current series, of which Heart of Glass is book 3 of the Skye Druids. This book starts with Theo Frasier, Detective Inspector with the local police trying to find out who is controlling a deadly mist that is killing Druids. He meets Ferne Crawford, a Druid Seer, who felt compelled to come to Skye from Edinburgh. These two people meet, and both feel a connection to the other. Donna Grant shows the reader how to write an intricate mystery, with a romance added to make the book even more intriguing. Both main characters are very well developed and have flaws and secrets. The supporting cast is quite large, with most of them having been either main characters in earlier books, or friends and/or family of the main characters. Every book gives these characters more depth. Heart of Glass is very fast paced with enough pauses to catch your breath before moving to the next surprising element. If I could give this book more than 5 stars, I would. Donna Grant has written a fantastic story that adds more details to the Dark Universe she’s created. If you’ve never read any of Donna’s books, reading this as a standalone might be confusing, but the prior books are the links in the chain, and are worth the time to read them for the best experience.

I was given an ARC by the author through BookFunnel, and this is my honest opinion.

Ignite the Magic (Dark Kings #0) by Donna Grant

5 Stars

A Pre-History novel

This is a prequel to the Dark Kings books, but also the Dark Sword and Dark Warriors. It is a story of the Dragons on Earth, when there are only dragons. We learn about them, their Kings, and the King of Dragon Kings. In particular we meet Lennox, the King of Silvers and the King of Kings. And we also meet a Fae, a Dark Fae named Allis, who has been watching her world, inhabited by both Dark and Light Fae start to fall apart and into war. She’s alone with no living family, and decides she is going to try and create a Fae Doorway, something no other Fae has been able to accomplish. Either she creates it or dies trying, but she has to get away from her world. This is the set-up Donna Grant has written to introduce us to our two main characters. Lennox, the strongest dragon on Earth, has underlying compassion and intelligence. Allis is a frightened woman who truly only wants to explore new places as her aunt had encouraged her to before her death. This is a must read if you’re a fan of Donna’s Dark Universe and gives us some history of an important character who we’ve all been waiting for their story. Mind! Donna Grant doesn’t give us all the information we want in this book, which gave me more questions, but it does tell us how things were playing out for our Dragons before humans enter onto the scene. Well written as always, my only negative is that the middle of the book seemed to go on and on longer than it needed. But the overall story is 5 Stars.

I was given and ARC by the author, and this is my honest opinion.

Dragon Arisen (Dragon Kings #6) by Donna Grant Release Day!

DRAGON ARISEN BLURB

In the latest story in the scintillating Dragon King series, Donna Grant, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, unites a sexy, determined Dragon King and an enigmatic woman who holds him enthralled.

You have to burn before you can rise.

Handsome. Commanding. Powerful. Alasdair isn’t a Dragon King to sit and wait. His carefully laid plans dissolve when he comes upon an enchanting woman. Lotti’s beauty beguiles him, her spirit intrigues him. The longer he’s with her, the more mysteries he uncovers. And the more his passion grows. He never expects she will lead him into the heart of Stonemore —while ensnaring his at the same time. With their enemies closing in, Alasdair will do anything to protect the woman he’s destined to love.

If there’s one thing Lotti knows, it’s that she’s a danger to others. She keeps her distance. Always. But all that changes when she lands in a difficult situation…with a gorgeous, seductive man. Every choice somehow leads her straight back to Alasdair. She can’t ignore his sexual magnetism or the undeniable desire between them. Their journey unravels everything she knew about herself to reveal a carefully constructed fallacy. Yet, she discovers an inner strength she didn’t know she had. But is her yearning for Alasdair worth the risk for them both?
