Review: Not for the kids its marketed to...
Rating: 2 out of 5

The book itself was ok- I would have given it a three for writing- my big problem with this book is that it was marketed to my 12 year old!  Why is this a problem? Because within the first 10 pages, there is a graphic murder- rape scene! I always insist that I read first any book I let my kid have, and this is why. It was marketed on her kindle as a young-adult (YA) book, but no YA book should be graphic like this! I was horrified to think someone's kid is out there reading this just because it's about dragons. It is violent, graphic, and brutal in some parts. In the 2nd half, the king and his fiance literally go to hell to save his people. It is NOT for kids. I believe an author should be able to write whatever story he or she wants to tell, but I do not believe all of them should be in a young person's reach.
