The Dragon's Path
The Dragon's Path | Daniel Abraham
All paths lead to war... Marcus' hero days are behind him. He knows too well that even the smallest war still means somebody's death. When his men are impressed into a doomed army, staying out of a battle he wants no part of requires some unorthodox steps. Cithrin is an orphan, ward of a banking house. Her job is to smuggle a nation's wealth across a war zone, hiding the gold from both sides. She knows the secret life of commerce like a second language, but the strategies of trade will not defend her from swords. Geder, sole scion of a noble house, has more interest in philosophy than in swordplay. A poor excuse for a soldier, he is a pawn in these games. No one can predict what he will become. Falling pebbles can start a landslide. A spat between the Free Cities and the Severed Throne is spiraling out of control. A new player rises from the depths of history, fanning the flames that will sweep the entire region onto The Dragon's Path -- the path to war.

Great characters/world but a book heavy on banking & economics should be a snooze fest. It was, in a good way! I‘m losing you. It wasn‘t my usual high octane adventure.

5 characters: Marcus, Cithrin, Geder, Dawson/Clara, a merc, an orphan good at banking, a noble & a couple. Their personalities glowed & the world was drawn so well!

Political intrigue & banking. Spice surprised me.

Need to see where this one‘s going. Need book 2!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/4

The Dragon‘s Path, my first of Daniel Abraham. It‘s in world building stages, but hey! It‘s Fantasy and right up my alley. Geder Palliako, Cithrin, Marcus, and Yardem are a few of the characters that‘ll play a big role. Oh yeah! There is something about Master Kit. A mystery likely to uncover. Looking forward to a magical path to war. Loyalty questioned and a plot of treason, for greed and power. #TheDaggerandtheCoin

Liked it a lot, great writing.

I love the Expanse series and had no idea that James S. A. Corey is the pen name used by Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck - one more reason to read Leviathan Wakes next.

Each chapter is from the point of view of a different main character, which does slow down the story. I strongly advise sticking with it, as it becomes an all encompassing world. Like all the better multi book fantasies, pretty soon I found myself living through my day with the world and characters always at the edges of my consciousness. I am now in book 4/5, and just flat out enjoying myself. This guy can write!
