Talon by Julie Kagawa - Book Review

Upped my fascination with dragons to a whole new level! 

What can I say? Talon is definitely worth the wait. I've been waiting for this baby to finally hatch ever since the day Julie Kagawa announced this whole new series. Only she, could spun a story of mythical creatures and fuse it in modern times in her unique way that will grip readers for sure.
Dragons hunted to extinction by an ancient enemy, a militarian force in the Order of St. George. A hatchling by dragon standards struggling for freedom from an organization who has plans for them, from the moment they were hatched and seemed to control their purpose in existence. When you start to question the things instilled in you from the beginning, you wouldn't know whom to trust and who would betray you. Relying on instincts and the swirl of human emotions is an entirely new concept. Decades of warring among dragons and humans; two different species separated by deep-rooted fear, rage and misunderstanding; can dragon rogues and a human traitor patch a long-time rift?

 Wow, from fey, to vampires to dragons. Freaking awesome! Ember Hill is yet another infamous heroine. I've sinked into this book as I've already expected,coz... really, it's a Julie Kagawa book,for crying outloud! and a book from her is definitely a winner. The characters are insanely strong and interesting. The plot, the intrigue is definitely there. Brewing of intense, defy-the-odds romance too! I can only foresee how Ember will turn into a kickass heroine! And boy, the two males, will definitely make it hard for her to choose. One representing the primal pull of her dragon kind, and the other one signifying a whole new unchartered territory of human emotions. I am definitely looking forward to the sequel, and I'm gonna clutch the hope that it will be as good or better than the primer in this series. Totally 5 stars for Talon!

What would you do to save someone you love?

In Fire & Flood, Tella Holloway faced a dangerous trek through the jungle and across the desert, all to remain a Contender in the Brimstone Bleed for a chance at obtaining the Cure for her brother. She can't quit--she has to win the race, save Cody, and then fight to make sure the race stops before it can claim any more lives. In the next legs of the race, across the ocean and over mountains, Tella will face frostbite, sharks, avalanche, and twisted new rules in the rice.

But what if the danger is deeper than that? How do you know who to trust when everyone's keeping secrets? What do you do when the person you'd relied on most suddenly isn't there for support? How do you weigh one life against another?

The race is coming to an end, and Tella is running out of line, resources, and strength. At the start of the race there were one hundred twenty-two Contenders. As Tella and her remaining friends start the final part of the race, just forty-one are left--and only one can win.

Also, I can hardly wait to read on Tella and Guy's adventures in the Brimstone Bleed, and the badass pandoras I so missed. *sigh* I am so grateful to be part of the V mafia.
