I really loved the book, with its conversational dialogue, banter, dark world filled with dragons, krakens and other mythological creatures, interesting world-building, but found it incredibly confusing. ![]() The Ruin of Kings, the first novel in The Chorus of Dragons, provides me with a unique review challenge. Then again, maybe he's not the hero, for Kihrin is not destined to save the empire.

Kihrin is a bastard orphan who grew up on storybook tales of long-lost princes and grand quests.
