Dragon Outcast

2007E.E. Knight

4.9/5

Arguably, I think this is probably my favorite book out of the original trilogy. While Auron was busy trying to find more of his own kind, and Wistala was busy trying to avenge her family, the Copper was trying to deal with his guilt (no spoilers) as well as trying to deal with being doubly outcast; driven out by his family as well as the rest of the world. Surprisingly this part of the world where the Age of Fire series takes place got my attention far more than the great Inland Sea, ancient Hypatia, Old Uldam, and all the other lands of the surface world. I don't know if it's because of the setting (the 'Underdark' setting being one of my favorite concepts in modern fantasy) or if it was because of the characters (and there are a lot of great ones in this book, believe me) or if it's because of the change of pace dealing with dragons as if they were less like animals and far more like sentient beings alongside the hominids, but this book really tickles me in ways that the other two didn't or, rather, couldn't.This is definitely a book on my recommended list to most fantasy readers out there. I kind of wish that there was more besides the next three to follow after this one.-Kerian
