The brutal revolution that overthrew the Dragonlords may have orphaned Annie and Lee, but it's brought new hope to their city. Now anyone--including the lowborn--can have wealth, an education, and even test into the governing class of dragonriders. Aristocratic by birth and with his identity concealed, Lee's confidence and air of power have made him a rising star in the very regime that slaughtered his family. Annie, a former serf, is as bold a rider as they come--in the air. On the ground, she struggles with self-doubt. Now, after seven years of friendship, Annie and Lee are rivals for the top position in the city's fleet. All the riders have been preparing to lead their people into the future, yet no one is ready when survivors from the Dragonlord families resurface with dragons of their own, bent on reclaiming the city. With war looming and their relationship growing, Annie and Lee will both have to confront wavering loyalties. Lee will be forced to choose between killing the only family he has left, or betraying everything he's come to believe in, while Annie will have to decide whether to protect the boy she loves . . . or step up to be the champion her city needs.

I'm a huge young adult fantasy fan and have been gobbling up more and more fantasy books this year, especially those with dragons. This world building in this book is imaginative and rich in depth as if I were there myself. The plot twists and turns surprised and delighted me and kept me reading. The characters were well-drawn and each had flaws. The author gave them immense growth arcs that I enjoyed and felt satisfied and not cheated with stereotypical cut outs or coincidences to move the plot along.
I felt at times that the pacing was too slow and hopefully now that the war for a new political regime has begun, book two's pace will be gripping. I needed more at the end--the ending was too abrupt for me as I was hoping to see more of the battle between the two factions. I also wish more of the dragon and rider bonding and choosing parts of this fantasy world had gone into more depth. The dragons needed distinct personalities and these needed to be shown, especially in how they could have impacted their bonded humans.
Overall, I am happy I chose to snag a copy and will be looking forward to book two.
