It was interesting to meet new characters under the sea that I would have liked to know more but that was short lived. I get now why all readers wished there was more of dragon world. It wouldn’t be spoiler if I mention all these was wrapped up in first 30% of the book which was a surprise.
All Seryu could do to save her is make her his companion that includes drinking elixir that will make her forget who she is. Shiori promised Raikama to return the pearl to its owner which wasn’t Seryu’s grandfather and he wanted pearl for himself and all that ends up with Shiori being imprisoned. It starts from where the first book ended with Shiori entering Taijin Sea and Ai’long, home of dragons with Seryu to bring her stepmother Raikama’s pearl to Seryu’s grandfather, God of Dragons. Plot is interesting and filled with lots of adventure and twist and turns. Writing is engrossing, vivid, and fast paced with first person narrative from Shiori’s perspective. The story is about promises, secrets, loyalty, trust, friendship, family, love, loss and grief, finding the purpose and magic with layers of cruelty of zealots, demon’s deception, hypocrisy of dragons, and court politics. The Dragon’s Promise is immersive YA Fantasy that revolves around Shiori’s adventure to fulfill the promise she made to her stepmother. It will take every ounce of strength Shiori can muster to defend the life and the love she’s fought so hard to win. The pearl itself is no ordinary cargo it thrums with malevolent power, jumping to Shiori’s aid one minute, and betraying her the next-threatening to shatter her family and sever the thread of fate that binds her to her true love, Takkan. She must journey to the kingdom of dragons, navigate political intrigue among humans and dragons alike, fend off thieves who covet the pearl for themselves and will go to any lengths to get it, all while cultivating the appearance of a perfect princess to dissuade those who would see her burned at the stake for the magic that runs in her blood. Princess Shiori made a deathbed promise to return the dragon’s pearl to its rightful owner, but keeping that promise is more dangerous than she ever imagined.
