Summary

Nationally best-selling fantasy legend Mercedes Lackey created a vivid, dynamic fusion of the Upper and Lower Kingdoms of ancient Egypt with the most exciting, authentic and believable portrayal of dragons ever imagined. In the second novel in Mercedes Lackey's richly conceived Dragon Jousters series, the dragonrider Vetch escapes to Alta, the subjugated land of his birth. There, he hopes to teach his people to raise and train dragons - and build an army that will liberate his homeland.

Good story but tough to stay interested

I like the concept and I like the plot. Even the narrator isn’t too bad. But there’s just something I can’t quite put my finger on that makes it tough to follow. It’s pretty slow in lots of places so often doesn’t hold my attention so could be this 🤔
