Of Dragons and Fae: The Complete Series
A fae with impossible magic
Adara has been an outsider for as long as she can remember. Born and raised in the earth fae realm, she’s a water fae who can’t control her magic, making her not just useless, but downright dangerous at times. When a training mishap accidentally unleashes a hidden magic inside her, Adara suddenly finds herself on the run. The king wants to use her powers for nefarious reasons, and he’ll stop at nothing to obtain her—including kidnapping and torturing Adara’s own mother.
A dragon awoken from slumber
As the last of his kind, Einar wants nothing to do with the kingdom of Ediria or its problems. The fae hunted his kind to extinction, and he harbors only hatred for them in his heart. But when a beautiful fae female awakens him from an enchanted slumber, Einar is reluctantly ensnared. And while he would rather die than submit to any fae, every fiber of his body screams to claim her as his own.
A kingdom corrupted by darkness
The last thing Adara and Einar want to do is join forces, no matter how scorching the passion between them is. But a dark magic is sweeping through the land, rotting the kingdom from the inside out. And if the two cannot put aside the centuries-old feud between their races, they will lose everything they hold dear...

"Of Dragons and Fae" by Jasmine Walt plunges readers into a realm rich with the mystique of fae and the majestic allure of dragons, setting the stage for an epic tale shadowed by looming threats. The narrative is anchored by robust main characters who navigate through adventures, breathe life into the world's creation, and forge connections with histories long forgotten and futures desperately in need of salvation. While Walt excels in crafting a vivid, enchanting universe, the novel occasionally stumbles in its narrative coherence, particularly in the seamless transition between concurrent storylines. The interweaving of main and background narratives at times feels disjointed, detracting from the immersive experience. A smoother, more integrated approach to melding these threads would enhance the fluidity and captivation of the tale. Despite these challenges, "Of Dragons and Fae" remains a compelling and exciting journey through a beautifully realized world of magic, intrigue, and the timeless dance between dragons and fae, promising readers an adventure worth embarking on.

I had hopes for this series. I think I found it on social media and thought the premise sounded good for when I needed to satisfy a dragon fix. It had a good start to it, Adara seemed like she was going to be a fighter. Smart, stubborn, hardworking. Even when she finds out her whole life is a lie, which I kind of rolled my eyes at this type of plot device. I kept reading thinking it’s ok, it can still be a good book series. However by the time we make into the meat of book 1 and she been captured and/or betrayed multiple times even with her Dragon mate protecting her I started to get frustrated. The book kept going from one fae court to another while this was happening, from one “quest” to another like a bad video game. By now we have the dragon mate that she doesn’t know is her mate, her plucky best friend and a random Air fae guy in our ensemble cast. It’s started to feel like a bad Scooby Doo cast, at one point I think one of the fae that’s against her even says “if it weren’t for you meddling…” like a Scooby Doo villain.
Again I kept going hoping it would get better knowing it probably wouldn’t. I almost DNF it half through book 2, but I said to myself I can at least finish book 2 and if it’s still bad I’ll stop. It didn’t get better, it only got worse. She kept being put into these situations where there just weren’t any good choices, and I get that’s sometimes what happens in life, but not every time! Finally at the end of book 2 when a Harpy she saved in book 1 came back in book 2 to return the favor, the Author gets the name wrong! Like how do you do that!?! I even went back to highlight to make sure I wasn’t crazy. It’s part of the highlights I’ve made public. I just couldn’t continue after that. So DNF after book 2.
I’d also like to address how poor the writing was. The characters are supposed to be New Adult/ Adult, they act and talk like teenagers. If fact the teenage Air fae acts older than anyone. Usually YA books in the fantasy genre are great even if they don’t have spice. The romance and chemistry is not slow burn, it’s nonexistent! She doesn’t even find out about the mate bond until almost the end of book 2, when he’s know since the first time her saw her. I don’t always need romance or spicy scenes or smut in my books. This seemed like it was supposed to have that and fell way short. So couple that with the very bad writing, I was so very disappointed.

The king wants to use her powers for nefarious reasons, and he’ll stop at nothing to obtain her—including kidnapping and torturing Adara’s own mother.
A dragon awoken from slumber
As the last of his kind, Einar wants nothing to do with the kingdom of Ediria or its problems. The fae hunted his kind to extinction, and he harbors only hatred for them in his heart.

And while he would rather die than submit to any fae, every fiber of his body screams to claim her as his own.

The book started off strong, with an engaging plot and well-developed characters. However, I was disappointed that everything was resolved abruptly at the end of the last book. There was extensive buildup throughout the series, only for it all to be hastily wrapped up in the final chapters.
The love story felt underdeveloped, progressing from nothing to everything almost instantly. Additionally, the revelation about the fire fae, which initially seemed like an incredible discovery, was only briefly explained, leaving much to be desired.
Overall, it felt as if the story was building up to something amazing, only to end suddenly and unsatisfactorily. Despite this, I did enjoy the series as a whole, which is why I gave it three stars.

Must read!
I read these books individually when they first came out but it's been long enough I had to reread them in omnibus. I don't usually reread books but these are worth it. And that cover is gorgeous! If you've never read any Jasmine Walt books, this is going to get you hooked.

Great story
I love these very much. The story is great the only take away is some editing could habe been done better. The timeline in witch things happens is all messed up. Going from a week to 3 days a few times. Along with the story going from 3rd person to the person in the story talking. Still a very fantastic story.

The storyline had a lot of potential and I enjoyed the plot, but it's written in a style that is extremely YA - the author pretty much holds your hand and you get to see in most characters heads via POV.
I skipped a lot of the internal dialogue to just read the conversations, which made it a bit better. Just not my style of writing...

Well written Difficult to connect
I give one star for the good writing. Another for the world building. Another for character development. Three stars total. The overall story line was okay but not good. And the mix of all these elements didn't create a story that enveloped you throughout the story.

Took one day…
Great characters and landscapes- well developed worlds and the way she brought the dragons in - excellent.
Of course when I say it took me one day to read the story wrapped into three novels, it’s because I tend to speed read through the “less than interesting” portions to get to the good stuff. But there was plenty of that too.

Let's Hear It For Dragons!
So much hatred and conniving, which is expected of Fae. And then the caste system. I'm glad that I read Leap's story prior to this so that I knew his background. This is an excellent series about individual strengths and the need to work together.

One of the best series I have read
Jasmine Walt has brought two fantasy characters together in a fast moving undeniably fierce at times, frolicking at other times. showing the majesty and magnificent of both.

My take on this is it is a YA book with a touch of spice. I liked the books overall. The premise sounded great. I found out about the books via FB marketing. Did it live up to the marketing kinda but I dont regret purchasing them and reading them. Was a fun read that I won't re-read again.

Love
I totally devoured this series. The main character is a perfect combination of fierce and yet growing into her own. Her cast of chosen family is such a good complement

I liked this series, but the last book fell very flat. I feel like there were so many opportunities to really embellish and add finesse and that didn’t happen.

Overall a good read, the odd spelling mistake but not too bad
Loses 1 🌟 cause I noticed the FMC has some internal dialog about her power, refers to it as "icefire" and not once after that do we see her ACTUALLY tell anyone that that what she's calling it, and now the mmc and one of the antagonists us calling it that too...WHO TOLD YOU?
