Summary

 THE SENSATIONAL SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER!

'Exactly what you love in a fantasy' ROBIN HOBB
'A fire-new take on dragons' SAMANTHA SHANNON
'Brilliant' HANNAH KANER

The first in an epic fantasy series, with a smouldering forbidden romance, a dangerous heist, a world full of magic, and DRAGONS.

The last male dragon. A desperate thief. A bond that will save the world . . . or shatter it.

Long ago, humans betrayed dragons, stealing their magic and banishing them to a dying world. Now their descendants worship dragons as gods. But the 'gods' remember, and they do not forgive.

So when thief Arcady casts a spell to steal a powerful artefact and accidentally traps Everen - the last male dragon - in the human world, the consequences are deadly.

Everen soon realises the key to his destiny, and to regaining his true power, lies in Arcady. All he needs to do is convince them to bond with him completely - and then kill them . . .

Critic reviews

A fresh and intricate world, a smouldering romance, and a fire-new take on dragons
A queer-norm world with new ways of telling tales, L. R. Lam is breaking boundaries and binaries yet again with a brilliant fantasy book that you won't want to miss
Exactly what you love in fantasy: Dragonfall is an intriguing blend of magic, a thief, trickery, and an unexpected dragon
Dragons have never been so sexy. Lam's triumphant return to fantasy strikes the perfect balance between romance, action, high stakes heists, and betrayal, in a richly imagined world that's brimming with magic and heart. You can't help but fall for this book
With a queernorm cast that challenges the roles of gender and sexuality, Dragonfall is a page-turner that keeps you on the edge of your seat with phenomenal worldbuilding and jaw-dropping twists. Leaves you as breathless as flying on dragonback
Lam's Dragonfall is a powerful all-new imagining of dragons and humans and the wild magic burning between them, set in a divided world as brilliantly original as it is convincing. With striking, beautiful prose and characters that will own your heart, this book - and those to follow in the trilogy - are must-reads
Tight, tense, smouldering, and wonderfully queer
Sumptuous epic fantasy
Dragonfall is fresh and exciting fantasy, full of treachery, romance and kaleidoscopic world-building. You will gladly lose yourself in L. R. Lam's creation
Dragonfall is a soaring good time from start to finish, and has plenty for fantasy fans to love: an intriguing world, forbidden romance, unique magic, and of course, as many dragons as your heart could possibly desire
Dragonfall is a brilliant, beautifully paced page turner of a novel, up there with the best fantasy and one of my favourite reads of the year so far
Set in a unique and wondrous world, Dragonfall is a soaring and fiery love story that will burn or melt your heart. Lam's prose is delicate and gorgeous yet sharp, and will leave readers pining for the next book
A thoroughly enjoyable story which deserves to be very successful
A romance featuring a sexy dragon, stabbing and kissing, what's not to love?
With progressive representation and constant shifts of narrative perspectives, Dragonfall is a unique intervention in the fantasy canon
Its unique representation of a non-binary co-protagonist...ensures Dragonfall is a stand-out within the fantasy genre, pushing the boundaries of what the canon can look like
Beautifully written, immersive, and fantastical, Dragonfall evokes shivers with its commanding prose. At the heart is the relationship between Everen and Arcady, two characters with opposing goals who should not, could not, ever love one another-and yet. Readers, ready yourselves for angst, for longing, for a world full of secrets and whispered promises. Readers, ready yourselves to fall

Initially I didn't enjoy either the narration or the story and found the jumping between character's viewpoints a bit jarring.

I'm really glad I stuck with it though as it turned into a really interesting story with well thought out character and plot development.

I can't wait for the next one to come out!

A slow burner but worth sticking with it!

The narrators did a lovely job, but due to the different tenses and POVs used, it made it hard to tell when something was dialogue or monologue at times.

Generally a decent plot but the beginning is slow and parts were difficult to follow. Arcadie’s motivations & long-term goals didn’t feel relevant to her actions, and Everyn’s conflict didn’t feel as impossible as it should have because I didn’t believe their relationship. The premise made the book sound more romance-heavy than it is. I didn’t quite understand the point of the bonus POVs either. The world and magic system was interesting though, and I appreciated the moments exploring gender, and having an NB protagonist.

Great premise, doesn’t quite deliver

This was a great listen, I actually read in tandem to listening to the audiobook. Unusual, but it may be my new way of listening to audio books as it really added to the experience, my familiarity of the text allowed me to get immersed by the story. obviously there can be mismatches with the accents/voices of characters, but the narrators did a great job.

Great fantasy romance

I really should have DNF'd this but I thought because it's an audiobook I could listen to it while I diamond painted and because I very rarely DNF books, but it's 13 hours I will never get back.
I just couldn't vibe with it and I don't know if it was the story itself of the narrators but this book wasn't for me and I love a good dragon fantasy book.

Not for me
