Disclaimer: I received a free copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
This story is about a kingdom, or rather several kingdoms, united by one man who became the king of all. To help ensure their good fortune, he had a child by a woman belonging to each kingdom. The problem is the king is now dead, and his heirs have not come forward to claim the throne. The throne currently sits empty.
Some of his heirs know who they are, or have figured it out at one point or another. Others do not know who their father was, and don't realize they are royalty. The story follows two of the many kingdoms, and two individuals from those kingdoms. One is a servant on a quest to remain in the castle or to find a better life for herself. Along comes a gentleman, seemingly innocent enough, and is trying to find the heirs of the great king. The other is in a fight for his own kingdom, and to become the next chief by winning the dragon race. The winner of the race also gets to choose his wife from the eligible women. One dragon rider is very interested in winning and is out to sabotage the main character we follow from this kingdom.
The writing by itself I found to be good. There were complexities of the story that were well played out. The story itself however, I found on the slow side. Or if there was action, there wasn't a lot of suspense. This is still a book I would recommend to you, and my close friends and family. Overall I give this a 3.5 of 5.
