Críticas:

"Best known for her successful partnership with Tracy Hickman (Dragons of the Vanished Moon, etc.), Weis launches a new series on her own that's sure to please high fantasy fans... will leave them eager for the next installment." --Publishers Weekly on Mistress of Dragons "Full of intrigue, magic, and violence, this first book of Dragonvarld--a projected trilogy chronicling the battle to preserve the uneasy relationship between dragons and humans--launches the project powerfully. Weis has brilliantly conceived a world viable for both dragons and humans." --Booklist on Mistress of Dragons "Gigi Marceau-Clarke shines in her performance of Margaret Weis's novel. She's got a beautiful voice--she even sings at times during the novel--and breathes life into the numerous characters.... Weis creates an interesting cast of all-female followers of the Mistress of Dragons." --AudioFile on Mistress of Dragons "Smart and distinctly alien, Weis's dragons are in no way cuddly" --Locus on Mistress of Dragons "Sure to please dragon fans." --Publishers Weekly on The Dragon's Son "Exciting ...Weis maintains a carefully crafted world and deepens the characterizations of the twins as each tries to come to terms with the past and his destiny." --Booklist on The Dragon's Son "Two brothers of mixed dragon and human blood become aware of each other's existence and begin to unravel the secrets surrounding their births and upbringing. Stefen Rudnicki and Gabrielle de Cuir narrate. Individually and jointly they provide a strong, steady narration, passing the story back and forth smoothly." --AudioFile on The Dragon's Son Best known for her successful partnership with Tracy Hickman (Dragons of the Vanished Moon, etc.), Weis launches a new series on her own that's sure to please high fantasy fans... will leave them eager for the next installment.

Reseña del editor:

They were both the offspring of Dragon magic, one raised in court, the other in hiding...but the link that exists between them will not be broken by mere distance, and the duality of their origin will unlock new hope for a return to peace and safety. Now, two renegade dragons have hatched a plan to enslave all mankind - an act in direct contravention to all the precepts of the Dragon parliament. With an army of crazed demi-human/dragons, they threaten the world order. It is up to the two brothers (separate and together) and Draconas, the special emissary of the Parliament, to restore the status quo between Dragonkind and mankind, even if by doing so, Dragonkind seals its own eventual doom.
