Synopsis

The third and concluding volume to Margaret Weis's spectacular Dragonvarld trilogy, Master of Dragons.

They were twin brothers, the offspring of Dragon magic, one raised in court, the other in hiding. But, the link that exists between them will not be broken by mere distance, and in the very duality of their origin lies mankind's hope for peace and safety.

When two renegade dragons with an army of crazed demi-human/
dragons devise a plan to enslave all mankind—an act in direct contravention to all the precepts of the Dragon parliament—it is up to the two brothers (separate and together) and Draconas, the special emissary of the Parliament to ensure mankind's survival. Even if by doing so, it will mean the eventual doom of the Dragonkind.

Goodreads review by Josh on December 09, 2011

I was pleasantly surprised with this book. I didn't go in expecting much so I guess I couldn't have been too disappointed. I was glad that most characters were actually able to pull their heads out and start realizing what was going on (view spoiler)[although a certain royal family were pulled into a clear trap an (hide spoiler)]......more

Goodreads review by Bukcrz on March 29, 2016

Note to self: story was good until the epilogue. I wish I did not read the epilogue because instead of the backstabber getting a comeuppance, she was given more opportunity to ruin more lives. If I ever pick up another book from this author, I hope I'll remember how she treats her bad guys.......more

Goodreads review by Mandy on March 19, 2017

I wish the writer would have taken a bit more time for the end battle. A build up of three books and then it was over in a flash. I was really looking forward to the dragons fighting, too bad... So overall 2,5-3 stars for the trilogy and kind of a meh-feeling after reading.......more

Quotes

“Gigi Marceau-Clarke shines in her performance of Margaret Weis's novel. She's got a beautiful voice--she even sings at times during the novel--and breathes life into the numerous characters…. Weis creates an interesting cast of all-female followers of the Mistress of Dragons.” —AudioFile on Mistress of Dragons

“Two brothers of mixed dragon and human blood become aware of each other's existence and begin to unravel the secrets surrounding their births and upbringing. Stefen Rudnicki and Gabrielle de Cuir narrate. Individually and jointly they provide a strong, steady narration, passing the story back and forth smoothly.” —AudioFile on The Dragon's Son
