“Dragon#39; s dogma” is the second book of the Dragon#39; s Prince-enders, and I must say that I’m a bit disappointed with it, but then I suppose that’s just because I haven’t read the first book. Indeed, while I was reading this book, I found myself thinking about how the series started and how it related to the second in a way, but it didn’t seem like it really needed to be. It seemed to be taking place in a world where magic had somehow returned, and where people lived in harmony with dragons. It wasn’t obvious why, but it just felt right to me. I especially liked how the plot built up to the final confrontation between dragons, and what the characters were up against as well.
I especially like the portions relating to Eric Bana, and how he was revealed to be the rightful heir to the Dragon throne. His story was interesting, and his motives for doing what he did were well thought out. It’s always been a bit of a mystery as to why he took the throne, but his motivations made sense, and they resulted in an intriguing plot, one that I hope gets to have resolution some day. There were some other interesting parts regarding Eric Bana’s relationship with his two brothers, as well as how Eric knew about the Dragon Tablet, and how he came to have it.
I haven’t read any of Peter V. Brett’s Dragon#39; s dogma yet, so I’ll have to wait and see how it all turns out, but I will say this: I’m very happy with this second book in the series and am eager to read more about Eric Bana, and how he deals with the dragons. I enjoyed the character interactions between the main characters and didn’t really feel like I was missing something when it came to the characters. If you enjoy fantasy epics, and if you like dragons, this book should definitely be considered. For someone who has never read anything like it before, this is a wonderful addition to your Dragon#39; s dogma series.
