Nice book. Loved the characters and the world. The magic of Hurog was really interesting. This was a great, fast and fun read. ( )

An interesting idea but I think it got pretty muddy in the delivery and lost along the way. I like the general ideas and the characters are fun, and you can feel the tangible difference between this book and the MT characters and the very different viewpoints between them. But the villians aren't really there for me, and the human succubus idea was.... intriguing but just wasnt fully carried through, you were never quite sure was that character truely evil or were they brain washed? ( )

I like the Mercy Thompson and Alpha and Omega series so much that I've been reading Patricia Briggs' older stuff too. I haven't liked any of it as much, but I still think the older books are worth a read, enough so that I will read the next Hurog book, along with the others she's written. Patricia Briggs is great at creating characters and relationships between characters that really draw me in. The plot in Dragon Bones had a lot going on, maybe too much for the length of the book, but I still think the resolution, while sudden, worked in the end. I loved Ward and Oreg, and I'm hoping to hear more about Garranon in the next book, as well as Beckram and Ciarra. I was glad to have a definite end rather than a cliffhanger, yet still have enough story left for there to be another book. ( )

Ward lets the world think he is stupid. It keeps his father from seeing him as a threat and killing him.
When his father dies Ward finds he faces an even more dangerous threat. He must act to save his home and possibly even his world.
He has pretended to be someone else for so long that he isn't sure who he really is. He fears being like his father. ( )

First book of Ward of Hurog. I love Ward. ( )
