As a lowly pot boy, Holt Cook was never meant to be a dragon rider. Until in a moment of madness, he saves a dragon egg doomed to be destroyed. A blind hatchling with a mysterious and unknown magic. Soul-bonding with the dragon, Holt gains access to its magical core. Only through training and perseverance can he cultivate its power to stand a chance in the battles to come. For the riders are preparing for war. Undead horrors are rising across the land. Kings and riders alike die in their strongholds. Order is crumbling. And Holt faces a terrible decision. To do what is expected and maintain order, or do what he knows to be right and cause only chaos?

Ascendant, the first book in Songs of Chaos by Michael R. Miller, is a fresh spin on dragon-rider fantasy 🐉, perfect for Eragon fans seeking a darker twist. Holt, unlike the classic hero, is flawed and grounded, with a gritty bond to his dragon, Ash, that‘s unpredictable and raw. Miller‘s world 🌌 is morally complex, with dragons that follow their own agendas, making this an intense, layered story that stands apart. ⚔️

An easy 5/5 star read. Good world building, magic system set up, character development etc etc. Engaging story that was well paced. A coming of age + dragon rider quest story. Small cast of characters mainly single POV so you needn't create a flow chart to keep track of things. Highly recommend.

Dragons ☑️ Adventure ☑️ It had a similar feel to Eragon (which I really like), but still a unique storyline.

As a commoner, Holt will never qualify to join the order and fly a dragon. So he steals an egg that would have been destroyed because of a suspected weakness in the developing baby. Then Ash is born blind. Together Holt and Ash learn to overcome the assumptions others make about them.

I enjoyed the epic adventure feel of it all. ⬇️

Zuhkeeyah I struggled with the idea that Ash and Holt call each other “boy”. To my mind, it‘s a term used when speaking down to someone. I know the author was trying to write in an American accent instead of his native British, but I feel like an editor should have adjusted this. 3y
