Dragon Ties by Dusty Lynn Holloway

(Image found on Goodreads)
"Time seemed to hold little meaning. It just kept moving forward, never holding still like she wished it would." -Dusty Lynn Holloway, Dragon Ties

Dragon Ties continues the story of Terradin and the war. Auri has made her choice, one that will hurt those around her even as it brings joy. But there is no time for her to enjoy the love that she has found and return it. The war is still going on with Obsidian and Auri is the only one that can stop it. Can Auri stay strong and save those around her? Or will she and the land crumble into nothing. Find the official description on Goodreads.

Dragon Ties is an amazing addition to the Chronicle of Shadow and Light series. Throughout the book we find out more about the characters that were the focus of Dragon Dreams but it also allows readers new perspectives and new insights to characters that readers may have overlooked in the first book of the series. Auri fears failure, and that just makes her seem so much more realistic and helps the reader to form a deeper connection with her. We also gain Liran's perspective and learn more about the elf and the depth of feeling he has for Auri. I found myself empathizing with Liran much more than in the first book and I found myself more strongly connected with Auri than Nachel in Dragon Ties.
