Review: Here there be dragons.....
Rating: 4 out of 5

Sacrificed to the Dragon is the first of 4 parts. And that is my chief complaint, It was a very short, quickly read story that I felt would have been better as a complete book. Short stories like this one tend to be forgotten by the time the other parts of the series come out. Plus all the books you read in between the parts dims your memory of the plot.But that is my only complaint. The book itself offers a fresh look at shifters by bringing in dragons instead of the usual wolves or bears - not that there's anything wrong with wolves or bears!!!The dragons have an agreement with the humans. Dragon females can't breed. Some human females test positive for being able to breed with the dragons and so a bargain is struck. In exchange for carrying a baby for the dragons, the female is gifted with a vial of rare dragon blood, able to cure anything. Even Melanie's dying brother. Each dragon is expected to take his turn at fathering a baby with a female to build up the clan. Even Tristan who hates humans. And that's how the first part starts. It will be interesting to see how it ends.
