SERIES: Yes, this book is the tenth in the DRAGON KING series – a spinoff from the author’s DARK KINGS books.

This series is also connected to her DARK SWORD, DARK WARRIORS, REAPER, ELVEN KINGDOM books. Same world/universe.

Merrill is the Dragon King of the Oranges. He has always been there for his dragon brethren when they were at their lowest. However, Merrill wants to face his emotional and mental demons on his own. He sees a kindred spirit in Katla. Will Merrill find the redemption he desperately seeks?

Katla is a druid who has been manipulated by the enemy for centuries. She strives for restoration of her past sins. Katla wants to find Villette – the villain who exploited her – and make her pay. She never expected to encounter someone like Merrill on her journey.

I rarely DNF a book. Normally, I can push myself to finish whatever I am reading. This time I could not.

Whenever I start a book, I always set a daily percentage reading goal (15 to 20%) for myself.  Sometimes I go over that, sometimes I barely make it. I could only make it to five to ten percent with this story before disinterest set in. I knew, after reaching fifty percent and still not into the book or characters, it was time to call it quits.

 The characters and plots are getting repetitious and stale to me, especially the heroines. I have noticed, for some time now, they all feel the same to me (personality wise, interests, etc), just with different appearances. They are starting to blur together.

Or perhaps I am getting burnt out on the entire series. It feels like the series has run its course. This can happen with long running series.
