I enjoyed this book. But I don't know. While the whole dragon/human interactions were well thought of and imaginative, I didn't feel the depth of the characters. Seraphina yes. The others, not so much. Glisselda was supposed to be something like Phina's bestfriend. Yet somehow there is not much going on there. And don't get me started on Kiggs. I am not quite sure I felt the main character and him generate any sparks. 
 Don't get me wrong, the intrigue was good and I did not see it coming (view spoiler)[ Imlann posing as Lady in waiting Lady Corongi (hide spoiler)]. I will read the next installement for sure.
