Melanie Rawn's best-selling debut is a novel of love and war, magic and madness, and deadly dangerous dragons that hold the secret to unimaginable wealth that could prove key to mutual peace-or a bloody tyrant's reign. And among it all, an idealistic young ruler struggles to civilize a culture that understands the strength of the sword-but has yet to discover the true power of knowledge.

Review of 'Dragon Prince #1 (Dragon Prince)' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

I very much minded the sexism and the gore, but I liked the overall story. It's a bit of a problem with oldschool fantasy - on a meta-level, the values and scenes displayed are often straight-out alien, from today's perspective.
