Remnants of a Scarlet Flame: The Last Draegion Saga Book 1

A solid debut book, with an introduction into a strongly built world and intriguing magic system.

While it starts off a bit slower than expected, setting up as much as it can before the events take place, this book has some amazingly written scenes in it that left me unable to put it down. There was some struggle in keeping up with the different POVs, but it ended up showing a lot of characters and their viewpoint, some of which I wish we explored more into.

Definite recommendation to try and read a little into the different factions/races/etc. first, using the sections towards the end if you find it difficult to keep up with the amount of information that we end up exploring.

Looking forward to the next book!

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

This read was enjoyable. It took me a couple chapters to understand who was who and to get invested in the story but once I did, it really reminded me of good old 80's fantasy books. Where the world and magical system is really fleshed out and the realities of war and power are played out on page with real world consequences.

I am looking forward to book 2, let's bring on the dragons!!
