Series ✦ Penny’s Take
Gods and Dragons
Kevin J. Anderson · 2022
82/100
👍 Worth It
A genuinely satisfying finale to Kevin J. Anderson's Wake the Dragon trilogy, with breakneck pacing, intricate multi-viewpoint plotting, and an emotionally resonant payoff that earned starred trade reviews. The brutal battle violence is not for the faint-hearted, and you really do need the first two books under your belt. But for epic fantasy fans who've been along for the ride, this delivers.
