A red and blue dragon fell in love and ran away from the dragon society and rules. The premise is our main character is a mixed-breed. And when the dragons look at each other, they see a glimpse of the human face to know the dragon’s identity. I also like that these shifts are magical and not tear-out-of-your-clothes type shifts. Red dragons breathe fire, as expected, but then there are blue dragons who breathe ice! There’s wind, electricity, and it’s so exciting to have different types of dragons. There are dragons of various colors, and each color dragon has a special breath weapon.

The notion of dragons and their individual clans is really interesting. I really enjoyed the world-building in Going Down in Flames. But even focusing on staying alive is difficult when you’re falling for someone you can't have. She’ll need to learn to control her dragon powers if she wants to make it through her first year at school. The new girl with the striped hair is a breath of fresh air, and with Bryn’s help, they may be able to change the rules.Īt the Institute, old grudges, new crushes, and death threats are all part of a normal day for Bryn. Segregated clans, being told who to love, and close-minded leaders make freedom of choice almost impossible. Since Bryn is the only crossbreed at the Institute for Excellence, all eyes are on her, but it’s a particular black dragon, Zavien, who catches her attention. Being hauled off to an elite boarding school is enough to choke on.

If her love life is going down in flames, she might as well spark a revolution.įinding out on your sixteenth birthday you’re a shape-shifting dragon is tough to swallow.
