The hero, larger-than-life Wardwick of Hurog, guardian of dragons, is the main attraction of the novel. He is surprisingly easy to identify with because is fears, flaws and motivations are very convincingly described. The same holds true for the captivating secondary characters, which are equally well-rounded. Especially suspensful were the descriptions of the "Asylum for noble Embarresments" - who doesn`t fear their relations aren`t treated as bad when noone is looking.
Just as strong as the characterzation is the plotting. The story moves along briskly and gifts the reader with some unexpected developments. The starting rebellion against an evil king alows for further sequels. Fortunately, this book reaches a satsfaying end on its own.

In order to protect Oreg and the rest of his family Ward sees no other choice but to join forces with a rebellion led by Alizon (the king’s base born brother) and Tisala. He rescues Prince Kellem for them, who is the heart of the rebellion and has been imprisoned in the Asylum for fifteen years. And while Ward simultaneously tries to soothe the distrustful prince’s feathers and to keep the rebels from fighting each other, king Jakoven opens the game for power and survival with the power of the Farsonsbane ...
