The Dragon Kin Series focuses on the lives of many of the Royal Cadwaldr dragons, fierce yet wonderfully quirky fire breathers that inhabit the Southland Territory; sometimes as a dragon and at other times in their human form. It is not common for a dragon to take a human mate but periodically there are times that a mere human catches their fancy. However, taming a dragon is not for the weak or feint-of-heart and it takes a special person to catch the eye of the man and manage to hold on to the heart of the dragon....
In G.A. Aiken's latest book, HOW TO DRIVE A DRAGON CRAZY, ten years have passed in the Dragon Kin World and Iseabail the Dangerous, aka Izzy, is now a powerful general in Annwyl's army. She still possesses amazing physical strength and beauty despite the many years of battle but has never truly allowed anyone into her heart compliments of her past with Γibhear the Blue. When her younger sister Rhianwen's magical ability gets out of hand, Izzy finds herself face-to-face again with Γibhear as he has been given the task to escort her back to the Southlands. She can't deny the attraction she still feels towards Γibhear but Izzy is no longer the sixteen year old that fell hard for the coy blue haired dragon. When she realizes that Rhi needs serious help in order to rein in her powers, she volunteers to travel to her homeland in search of her grandmother, a Nolwenn witch that once turned her back on both her and her mother. While Izzy has no problem blazing this dangerous path on her own, she can't seem to keep one irritating blue dragon from imposing his will.
Γibhear the Contemptible, the young dragon prince formally known as Γibhear the Blue, has maintained his distance for ten years. Now a feared member of the Dragon Queen's special warriors, the MΓ-runach, Γibhear finds himself on a mission to bring Iseabail the Dangerous home to the Southlands. Nothing could be worse for Γibhear than not completing a mission but common sense tells him that he should keep Izzy at a distance as she is the adopted daughter of his brother, Briec. That plan is put to the test as he can't seem to keep himself far from things that involve her. Realizing that Izzy has never really been fully out of his system, he launches a new mission to break into her heart...no matter how long it takes!
HOW TO DRIVE A DRAGON CRAZY is the sixth and highly anticipated installment in the Dragon Kin series. G.A. Aiken takes readers, once again, into a world filled with dragon shifters, strong and courageous heroines and tremendous battles while tossing in lines and circumstances that are so funny and snarky, you will find yourself laughing out loud frequently throughout the book. To really get the most out of G.A. Aiken's series, read them in her recommended order, it definetely adds to the experience.
Overall, a truly clever read and one of the best books I have read this year! While it's wonderful for Izzy and Γibhear to get their HEA, I find that I will certainly miss the anticipation I held for them since the second book of the series. I do certainly hope to see more of the new dragons introduced this time around and will eagerly but not-so-patiently wait to see if Rhianwen and her cousins become the focus of future books. Until we meet again, you wonderful dragons!
Some things never go away, like vile enemies, bad ale, and annoying kin. But I thought I was finished with the one dragon I'd have done anything for: Eibhear the Blue, a big, gorgeous, blue haired beast who thinks the world belongs to him. The world and, apparently, me. So if Eibhear wants to play the caring hero and travel into the most forsaken of Gods forsaken lands to protect the one woman who doesn't need it namely me I'll let him. Because while I'm trying to fulfill a ridiculous quest for a pushy god, I'm going to draw this overconfident warlord much too close, rekindle his fires, and enjoy every minute of his delicious defeat...
