- Being given an ARC of Eona, I hastily read Eon and couldn’t put it down. Of course I had to move to the sequal.
Summary from GoodReads:
In this standalone sequel to Eon: Dragoneye Reborn, Australian author Alison Goodman (Singing the Dogstar Blues) tracks the perilous adventures of Eona, the first female Dragoneye in many centuries. Unfortunately, our heroine finds no time to rest on her laurels: She and her fellow rebels are racing frantically to find a potent black folio while they also attempt to elude High Lord Sethon’s pursuing army. Eona: The Last Dragoneye brims with romance, suspense, and surprises.
My Review:
I can’t express how much I loved reading Eona: The Last Dragoneye. Everything that was present in Eon was magnified in this sequel and I fell in love, if that’s even possible, even more with Eona and the other characters.
In this sequel, and final to the story of Eona, the Dragoneyes are in shambles and Eona’s past finally reveals itself to her. Hard choices have to be made, alliances tested, friendships broken and reforged and, through all of this, epic battles are being waged.
I devoured Eona. I knew I would after reading Eon, but I think I may have liked this book even more. Alison Goodman created a world that was rich, filled with subtle nuances and and so much mystery and magic. Add in an interesting magic system and cultural references and you have a well-rounded, fantastic story that didn’t step too far over the bounds in order to achieve that typical “happily ever after” feeling.
