A Fantastic Fantasy
Ok, I want to start off by saying I do read fantasy books but usually, they're under the romance category first. This book was great even though it was a fantasy first and foremost. The Royal Dragoneers has duh, dragons, action, and a little bit of romance too. The characters were interesting to read about.

Royal Dragoneers completely had my attention all they way to the end of the book. I was about to imagine the story like I was watching some cool high-end movie. The four main characters are trying to warn the king of the war that is on the way, and they have these trolls and orcs to deal with. It's a pretty intense emotional rollercoaster. I had to force myself to take my time reading this one because I felt like it was a special read that I didn't want to rush through. I am very glad that I did that.

I am considering picking up the next book in the series soon. For now, the trilogy is going on my "want to check out" list. You should try The Royal Dragoneers if you enjoy reading fantasy books.

The sampler of The First Dragoneer led me to The Royal Dragoneers and M.R. Mathias.
Since being shipwrecked hundreds of years ago and attacked by the dragons of the land the people have always hunted and killed the dragons. Now the Trolls, Gremlins and Orcs are gathering against them and the only thing that might save them is the few individuals that have bonded with the pure-blood dragons. M.R. Mathias has created a fantastical world and creatures and people that fill it. Great read! ( )

The Royal Dragoneers – Review by Martha A. Cheves, Author of Stir, Laugh, Repeat

‘He saw that his bow was lying back where he had dropped it. His knife wasn’t at his hip either. Beyond the flames, he saw the shredded remains of the stag’s carcass. The dragon had torn half the meat away in only a few seconds. The trolls would have the rest of it, he figured. After they had him. A fist-sized rock slammed into his chest, knocking all of the wind from his lungs. Other stones followed and the primitive troll beasts soon went into a frenzied ritual of howling and savage fighting over feeding position. Luckily for Jenka, a well-thrown chunk of stone bashed into the side of his head and spared him from having to see himself being torn to pieces. All he could think of as he slipped into unconsciousness was that he would finally get to see his father, and he hoped his mother would never have to gaze upon what the trolls left of his body. After that was nothing but blackness.’

Sixteen year old Jenka De Swasso is out on a hunt in hopes of bringing fresh meat back to his mother. When he spotted the aging stag he knew he would have no problem bringing it down but the sun was setting which meant he would have to track the stag after hitting it with his arrow and spend the night trying to protect it, as well as himself, from the trolls that lived in the woods around his home of Crag. Jenka’s mother was Crag’s village kettle-witch, which meant she could cast spells and at times even heal. Jenka’s father, whom he was very proud of, had died while saving the king’s son Richard. With his father being one of the King’s Rangers, Jenka’s dream was to become one too. And if he could get his stag back to town, it might just give him an up on his training to serve the king. But, fate had it that the trolls would spot his fire and come in for the kill and the meal awaiting them. What the trolls didn’t expect was an emerald green dragon named Jade to come to Jenka’s rescue. The bond that formed between Jade and Jenka was eternal. Jenka would find that there were others who were bonded to the pure dragons and along with them they will sacrifice all to save mankind.

The Royal Dragoneers is a book of mystery, magic and love. It stresses the strength of love between man and his devoted friends and in this case his dragon. I must warn you though, The Royal Dragoneers is a very graphically visual book which should not be read by nor to young children. I see this as an adult version of Harry Potter. And since the story has come to no end, I’m looking forward to reading the next book in this series.

I just want to start by saying, maybe this wasn't the book for me.
First, the things I liked about the book.The author did a very good job with world building. With the opening scenes in the forest, you become quickly thrust into the story. Very, very descriptive writing. There were also some likable characters. I liked Zah, Lemmy & mainly the dragons. The dragons ability to feel love and sadness were the only truly moving points of the story for me. The one thing that I can say I liked the best about the book was the dialogue. I actually laughed out loud in a few spots.
Some things that I struggled with. The Royal Dragoneers is told from many points of view. Moving back and forth so often caused me a challenge with really latching on to one particular character. I also felt that in some portions of the story, the description & world building went on a little too long, in particular one long scene describing a castle.
On the whole, I want to emphasize, for my tastes, The Royal Dragoneers was just an" okay" book. ( )
