City of Dragons
"City of Dragons" by Robin Hobb is the third installment in the Rain Wild Chronicles, continuing the journey of the dragon keepers and the ancient dragons they are tasked with protecting. As the group ventures deeper into the Rain Wilds, they uncover a city long lost to history, a place that holds secrets that could change everything for the dragons and their keepers. The bonds between humans and dragons grow even more complex, as both must confront the challenges of survival and transformation in a harsh and unforgiving world. Hobb masterfully explores the characters' personal struggles while expanding the lore surrounding the dragons, making for a rich, immersive experience.
"City of Dragons" is a powerful continuation of the series, offering a slow-burn narrative that rewards patient readers with deep character development and the gradual revelation of long-buried secrets. Hobb's talent for world-building and emotional depth shines through, providing a satisfying blend of mystery, adventure, and poignant moments. I highly recommend "City of Dragons" to readers who have enjoyed the previous books in the Rain Wild Chronicles and to anyone who appreciates fantasy with strong character dynamics and a focus on relationships between humans and magical creatures.
