DRAGON'S MATE VOLUME ONE: BOOKS 1-3 introduces us to the world of dragons, gargoyles, and witches, where liking someone of the same sex isn't a problem... unless you're part of the wrong clan.
With three full-length novels plus a Christmas novella that ties up those three stories nicely, there is plenty here to enjoy. Each couple became my favourite and each time, I was convinced no one could topple the couple before.
I really hope Glimmer gets his own story, and Alfie finds his way to the Hoskins! I am invested in these characters and the world they live in, and I can't wait to read more.
If you like Dragons, then you will absolutely enjoy this box set. Definitely recommended by me.

This is okay as a basic fantasy novel. One thing did bother me towards the beginning in that the main character classifies her and her friends as classes, like assassin, ranger, etc. and even in Dungeons and Dragons books they don't come straight out and name them like that, and it just seemed a little cheesy. Overall the concept is good, but the characters just don't grow nor did I become attached to them.

This wasn't the book for me. It's a cute premise, but sadly, it didn't hook me. I think it might be better for those that play games like Dungeons & Dragons on a regular basis. It dragged on for me. The illustrations are cute and colorful, and I loved the DM popping in and out to interact with the characters. I just didn't love it as a whole. Maybe you'll like it better than I did!

The protagonists in this book would be Aurora – the Queen of The Court of Light, and Jarvok – the King of The Court of Dark, but the novel was told from multiple perspectives. There are a lot of characters in this novel, of all the species you can imagine. We have fallen angels, mermaids, pixies, various animals, dragons and many more. My favourite characters would be Aurora and a little dragon called Los.

Perfection
We get to see more of the eagle race. We get an amazing war scene. There will be rivers of tears flowing. And this is the end. When realization hits, it hits hard. No more lembas, dragons, beautiful elves, partying dwarves, and all the other races that you thought you didn't need in your life, but turned out that you did. And the ending of this movie adds more pain.

Good but predictable in places
The plot and characters make more sense compared to film 2. It would of been nice to have more of the red dragons back story feed in such as why he was drawn to that character. It is predictable in places in regards to obvious mentions to previous events to make things tie it which really are not needed.

Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.
Ellis takes a vacation in North Wales, and finds herself feeling so much at home. Meeting Luke helped, but she had to return to Cardiff. Following dreams of dragons and Merlin, Ellis needs to go back to the vacation spot, and then things really get odd.
I liked this, I liked this a lot!

Of course, tales of dragons and Merlin help, but the level of research is exceptionally clear here, with lots and LOTS of Welsh tales, myths and legends told.
The feelings Ellis have for Luke grow and develop over time, and it's really only they are apart that things start to get serious for both Ellis and Luke. The call of Beddgelert, and indeed, of each other on their souls and hearts is too powerful to ignore. Ellis gets back, but it takes a bit longer for Luke to finally admit that he needs to go home.
It's told from Ellis and Luke's point of view, along with a couple of others that need a say. Each voice is clear and different, most pointedly when Luke talks about his past, his knowledge of what he is and what Ellis is to him. Ellis doesn't have that, and she needs to learn it.
There's no drama or danger, aside from discovering that dragons still exist! It's not totally clean, there is love and passion here, but nothing explicit. It's well written and extremely well delivered.
Lots of Welsh names here, and I had no idea how to pronounce them! But it didn't spoil my enjoyment, just made me chuckle trying to read them out loud :-)
A wonderful, delightful, beautifully written love story, set in Wales, with all its myths and legends about dragons. And now I wanna visit Beddgelert, cos it's a real place, and see all the wonderful places that Ellis visits!
