Dragons will fly over Kelsingra once more. The Tarman expedition has at last found Kelsingra, a city filled with ancient treasures. Here, the dragons and their Elderling keepers may discover their full potential, but only if the magic of Kelsingra can be unlocked. Already rumours of the city have floated down the Rain Wild River.

Hey Amazon, give me a realm of the elderlings show( with keeping up with the rainwilders pls)
Now I know Ms. Hobb for sure took IMMENSE pleasure in writing some of these deaths and I had a great time reading them.
It became much better once the story lines starting converging.
3.25 out of 5 stars – see this review and others at The Speculative Shelf.
Blood of Dragons closes the door on the Rain Wild Chronicles tetralogy. I was expecting a grand finale, but was disappointed to read a more muted story that concluded several storylines that I did not care much about. Robin Hobb's similarly structured Liveship Traders series had countless characters that all felt like important components of a densely woven tapestry, while this series felt less essential and grand, with a heavy focus on relationship drama. Gripes aside, this is not a bad book, just one I did not enjoy as much as most other Realms of Elderlings works. Four series down, one to go!
