No Good Dragon Goes Unpunished (Heartstrikers)

Buy Now

When Julius overthrew his mother and took control of his clan, he thought he was doing right by everyone. But sharing power isn’t part of any proper dragon’s vocabulary, and with one seat still open on the new ruling council, all of Heartstriker is ready to do whatever it takes to get their claws on it, including killing the Nice Dragon who got them into this mess in the first place.

To keep his clan together and his skin intact, Julius is going to have to find a way to make his bloodthirsty siblings play fair. But there’s more going on in Heartstriker Mountain than politics. Every family has its secrets, but the skeletons in Bethesda’s closet are dragon sized, and with Algonquin’s war looming over them all, breaking his clan wide open might just be the only hope Julius has of saving it.

  1. The ending left me gobsmacked For anyone who isn’t familiar with the term, gobsmacked is British slang for being unexpectedly stunned. Another reviewer said she nearly threw her book at the wall. If I hadn’t been listening to it on my phone, I might have done the same. 

  2. No Draconic deed goes unforgotten in this continuation of the Heartstrikers Saga Rachel Aaron leads us in a momentous, merry, and murky path as we enter the third book of the Heartstrikers Saga. A fast paced read from start to finish, Aaron manages to weave what at originally feels like competing lines instead into a cooperative tapestry. The cast continues to grow, and I feel for all these characters. Aaron can generate such a unique pathos for some while still somehow maintaining the overall hopeful tone. 

  3. More of our favorite characters, plus plot twists Rachel Aaron’s writing feels a lot like Brandon Sanderson’s, but with a lot of quirky humor thrown in. And I mean that in the best twisty, plot-within-plot-within-meticulously-plotted-plot human-condition sort of way. Her series start out deceptively light, and as they twine on, the plots thicken and twist, even as the characterizations become deeper and more refined.
