Publisher's summary

The legacy of Mari and Alain blazes ahead in this brand-new sequel to the hit Audible original series The Pillars of Reality.

The world of Dematr had been locked unchanging for centuries by the Great Guilds, most people living in a world of oil lamps, crossbows, and horse cavalry, the Mechanics reserving to themselves the technology for steam locomotives, rifles, and far-talkers while the Mages treated all others as if they were nothing - until Master Mechanic Mari, dragon slayer and pirate queen, and Master of Mages Alain raised the army of the new day to free their world.

Kira of Pacta Servanda, the daughter of the two greatest heroes of her world, was six years old the day she stood on a battlement in Dorcastle, staring up at a statue of her mother while surrounded by bodyguards who fenced Kira off from the nearby crowds. As the morning sun cast the shadow of Mari's statue over Kira, she realized that she would spend the rest of her life in that shade. Then the world of Dematr learned that a new kind of ship had left the far-distant world of Urth. The ship would take only 10 years to cover the immense distances between stars. Of all the colony worlds, the ship was coming to Dematr. But for what purpose? Kira was 16 when the ship from Urth arrived, and she discovered that her world still needed heroes.

Enjoyable...but...

What did you love best about Daughter of Dragons?

While I understand the need to put filler in a book to increase the volume, I was frustrated with amount of teenage angst, whining, and constant misunderstanding of Jason!

Amazed

I am so excited the story continues in this trilogy. I felt that the end of Pillars of Reality left some questions unanswered. I loved the follow up and new story line. I cannot wait for the next book. I will be pre-ordering it as soon as I see it.

Lots of Fun!

Unique mix of Fantasy and Sci-Fi. While you can listen to this book without first listening to the previous Pillars of Reality series, I highly recommend you do so. Set 20 years after the last book of the Pillars Series but in some ways picks up where it left off. It's just a lot of fun!!

Masterfully crafted YA

An exploration of personal growth, accepting responsibility.  And another method of exiting trains. Highly recommended.

The series gets even stronger.

Such an inventive way to continue the series. I liked this even more than the original series.

There Really Are Dragons

This is a interesting coming of age story with two teenage main characters. There is a girl whose mother is very famous (She is the main character in a previous series). A mother she thinks she cannot live up to. The other is a boy whose parents have told him he is worthless and he has not self confidence. When they have to go on the run both have life changing experiences. A very nicely put together story with danger, tension and the beginning of romance.
