I received this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.

I must admit that this introduction into the world of The Dragon Hunters Series had my attention just from the concept alone. The book promised to deliver a tale full of action, creatures of fantasy, gods of myth, and mystical mayhem. And from page one until the last word written, I was not let down.

Through the story of Andreas, we are introduced into a world hidden within our own and a few places that humanity has long forgotten or may not have ever known existed. The characters are engaging and worth spending the time to get to know. Some of the fight scenes may have you feeling the pain right alongside of our heroes. I found myself getting some strange looks as I could not keep from making the occasional … “geez,” “oh,” and “that had to hurt” comments aloud.

I am purposefully leaving out anything that may be spoilers because I would not want to ruin the adventure for everyone.

The Lost Dragon is definitely a book that I feel comfortable in recommending to any open-minded readers who are seeking to escape into a well-paced novel that leaves one both satisfied and wanting more by the stories end.

The Lost Dragon was an excellent book. It held my interest from page 1 right through to the end. The story was astonishingly well thought out and rendered. I particularly liked the action scenes. I frequently found myself physically moving with the action. I came to quickly care about the characters and what happened to them.

I was somewhat (and only somewhat) put off by the mixing of tenses, sometimes within a single sentence, and by a few spelling errors. None of the errors I mentioned were enough to be too jarring or put me off the story. I strongly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys reading fantasy tales. Well done, Drako!

I really enjoyed this book. What’s not to like when 11,000 year old gods use modern, street vernacular and have attitude issues? Plus, there are vampires and werewolves and demons. Oh my! Add to the mix a woman who everyone seems to want to either protect or abduct and you’ve got a read with a lot going on. The characters are interesting and the story line is compelling and action packed. As a straight woman with no real-life experience regarding the ins-and-outs of male-male sexual encounters, the love scene was enlightening and well-crafted.
