Master of Dragons: The Triumphant Climax of the Dragonvarld Trilogy

by Margaret Weis

Overview

The third and concluding volume to Margaret Weis's spectacular Dragonvarld fantasy 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.

Master of Dragons is the epic conclusion of Margaret Weis's triumphant Dragonvarld trilogy, an epic of politics, war, and the delicate balance of the ways of dragons and men.

Editorial Reviews

The battle between humans and dragons comes to a head in the unimpressive concluding volume to Weis's Dragonvarld trilogy (The Dragon's Son, 2004). With a rogue sect of dragons scheming to enslave humanity, half-brothers Ven-a half-man/half-dragon monstrosity raised in secrecy-and Marcus-a handsome prince raised in the court, blessed (or cursed) with the ability to wield Dragon magic due to the circumstances of his birth-seek and ultimately find the path to victory. Human-friendly dragons Draconas and Lysira play an important role, providing hope for future relations between the two species. In this concluding volume, Marcus finds romance and Ven finds self-acceptance, while series villains Anora, Maristara and Grald receive their richly deserved comeuppance in predictable fashion. A paint-by-numbers fantasy whose soap-opera characterizations, laughable dialogue and execrable prose will have judicious readers rolling their eyes.
