There's so much stunning artwork of the books. I cannot wait for the new illustrated edition of The Rise of the Dragon.

The books are always better unless we're talking about Divergent

**wickedrum** · 10-24-2022, 01:49 PM

there's not much detail in them books, right?

***madness*** · 10-24-2022, 01:56 PM

I didn't finish the first one.

and then blocked it out so I could not tell you. Books I've read mostly leave me with feelings and that one, it wasn't good.

I read one of them too waiting for the next movie and I don't remember much. Maybe that's a sign.

***madness*** · 10-24-2022, 02:17 PM

I don't even think I finished the movies either

I think they came out around the time of Hungers Games and it was just dystopian overload.

**wickedrum** · 10-24-2022, 02:25 PM

the last movie never came out. At least not to the theatres.

***madness*** · 10-25-2022, 12:32 AM

Oh really? That's so sad.

Princess Rhaenyra was a different matter. Daemon spent long hours in her company, enthralling her with tales of his journeys and battles. He gave her pearls and silks and books and a jade tiara said once to have belonged to the Empress of Leng, read poems to her, dined with her, hawked with her, sailed with her, entertained her by making mock of the greens at court, the “lickspittles” fawning over Queen Alicent and her children. He praised her beauty, declaring her to be the fairest maid in all the Seven Kingdoms. Uncle and niece began to fly together almost daily, racing Syrax against Caraxes to Dragonstone and back.

I really need to make work of actually reading this book.

Apparently my The Rise of the Dragon book has also arrived at the post office.
