“An extraordinarily entertaining and innovative treatment of dragons . . . the relationships among the characters are extraordinarily well developed. I recommend this book highly, if only to prove that when it comes to dragons, we have seen much, but there is more to see.”

“I could not put this book down. Wow, just pulled me in with the politics, world- building, character development, and heart wrenching love story. It is also extremely clean in the bedroom while still maintaining a good current of chemistry between ODC.”

“Okay, nobody tell, but I think I like Amy Beatty's "Out of the Fire" better than the original 1877 "Through the Fire." Ms. Beatty just has a knack for descriptive imagery; I was mesmerized. The story: A fire fairy princess and a water fairy prince fall in love—what's the worst that can happen?”
