The Rage of Dragons

Though I enjoyed reading the story, the ever angry at life and everyone hero got a bit tedious to tolerate over the course of 426 pages. I think the nature and limitations of magic are rather great, interesting world but really needs a more complicated hero.

LOVED. IT. I can't say how much I loved the characters, the world building... I was annoyed that there wasn't a glossary, but that is such a minor thing compared to the words. I can't wait to read the next part of the journey. Thank you Evan Winters. This was life!

I have never read a fantasy novel before that featured African culture and protagonists as the predominant theme and characters.

While some of the outcomes were predictable and the magic system a bit "video gamey", the book itself was a good read, and enjoyable.

Enjoyed this first in a series, characters are well developed, world is well drawn. The main character, Tua, takes a bit too long to grow up. All the different titles, names are distracting, makes it hard to follow the story line, which is why I gave it four stars.

I don't write many reviews, but I felt compelled to write one for this book. This is a wonderful read. Very detailed worldbuilding, with language, mythology, etc. all very well-thought-out. And the characters are impressively nuanced -- not a lot of one dimensional stock characters. Well done!!!

Everything about the book was near perfection. Awesome and knowable characters and their development. Excellent plot and execution. The only critique that really doesn't reflex this author's amazing talent is there was not a map; I like a good map.

Absolutely terrific book... can’t wait for the sequel. For me, the first 25% started off slow but wow the remaining 75% more than made up for it. The story is unique in a good way and thoroughly enjoyable. Can’t wait for more from the Author.

I read this book in a night. It had me from the start to end. Do yourself justice and read the author's book. I myself have added another wonderful storytellers list of novels to my ever growing collection

I read this on a rainy day and couldn't put it down. The book has a manic pace to it that leaves you wanting to flip to the next page. The world building is great and just when you think you have the plot figured out he twists it.

Reminded me of Way of kings and I can't wait for the next one!

I am ready for a second book! A page turner- several twists as you go, in the beginning the terms are a challenge to keep straight but soon are familiar to the point you don't even think about them. TONS of exciting action, well done

This book has well thought out characters, action packed throughout and leaves the reader wanting more. With bold flowing fighting, romance, revenge, weak verses strong, and people of all morals, from the deceitful and despicable to the ethical and courageous.

I wasn't expecting one of the best books I've read in a long time when I picked this up. If you're reading this and trying to decide, do it. This book is fantastic and I can't wait for the next one. This author has an amazing story here and I can't wait to see where it goes.

I haven't been reading often and if I do I typically lose interest in quickly. This is the 1st time in a good minute that I've picked up a book and finished it in a day. From the characters to the world they live in had fascinated me from the get go as well as the political system that shaped them. I'm rambling now, but I can't wait for the next book

My favorite novel in the genre since Game of Thrones. This book is amazing and I recommend to everyone who will listen to me. EAGERLY awaiting the sequel. I may read it a 2nd time while I wait... its that good!

I started this book soon after finishing another. Too soon I thought. Then I got caught up in it and couldn't put it down. It is well told and nail biting reading. I cannot wait to read the next book.

I was really surprised. It started off pretty slow but when it picked up i couldn't put it down. I'm really not happy to know I've got to wait on the next book! It leaves you wanting more. Great book!

I saw this book on a Facebook ad and decided to read it on a whim. This book grips and never let's go. All the way to the end. Savage fight scenes that drip with gore. Heartfelt pain and loss. I truly felt the lead characters pain and the drive for not just revenge but to be more. A page turner until the very end.

I pay for Kindle Unlimited because I read fantasy voraciously. Every once in a while, I find a book that I wish was on some kind of list, in which they find all of the absolute best cheap pulp fantasy novels. It's so good. I was in a fugue state the whole time I read it. I couldn't put it down. Cannot wait for the next installment.

Once I started this book my inability to put it down was captivating. The new take on a caste system with magic, dragon, sacrifice and rising through impossible odds was awe inspiring. I am loathed to know that there isn't a second book yet and I will be reading it the moment it is released.

I'll simply say that I couldn't put this book down. I read it on my breaks at work and in every free moment I had. Evan Winters debut novel suck you in and you become entranced with Tau and his story. Tau is now on my top three list of favorite fantasy characters. Well done Mr. Winter. Can't wait for books two and hopefully other series as well. Thank you for sharing your work with us.

As an avid Science Fiction and Fantasy reader for over 55 years there is not much I’ve read that hasn’t been a rehash of stories already written. I was pleasantly surprised at the originality of this book and am eagerly awaiting the next.

A couple of small grammatical errors (very small) are the only bad thing I can say about this book everything else is fresh and fantastic. The world this story exists in is very confusing but in a good way while I'm still left with many questions I am thoroughly hooked for the next book.

Can't wait for the second one, I do have one question though... Will tau be able to finally be using his gifts in a more visual way in the second book? Because yes I do realize he has (cough) a few,hehehe
