Good story
The story, concept, and characters are all interesting. The writing isn't the smoothest though. There was a few inconsistencies that bothered me, but not enough to quit the story. Most people might not even notice these things, but I've read hundreds of books all my life and pick out to these things a bit easier, unfortunately.
Small things like the satyr being mentioned as having goat feet, when she has horse hooves. I'm fine with the satyr being female even though they are traditionally always male. But they described her as having goat legs and then described the hoof as being crescent-shaped like a horse. I figured the authors just didn't know what goat hooves looked like, until I looked up satyrs and found out that they traditionally have horse legs and tail. The satire wasn't described well enough for me to decide which the authors were going for.
Another small example which is probably just me being nitpicky and disagreeing with people's fighting choices, but it still bothered me. One moment the main character might charge into a magic battle, then the next moment they'll freeze up at the sight of a spell going towards her. Then she doesn't watch the battle because she doesn't want to see the spells and freeze up. Then when she's got a plan she can charge in fearlessly again.

Help me read more books
Interesting story here. A story about dragons can rarely go wrong, and although the dragon in this story spends very little time as an actual dragon, I found the story to be rather amusing, and of course, action packed. Heck, the dragon even breathed fire in the end, having never even mentioned it's ability to do so before then, so that was a little out of sorts, but the story itself was pretty good, and I think I might read more in this series.

An intriguing and entertaining story!!!
Congratulations to Talia Beckett and Andrew Billingham for this amazing series. It’s extremely hard to find such interesting and exciting authors who not only write intelligently but also provide top rated plots, characters and excitement in the stories. I’m really looking forward to the next book.

A definite new twist on dragons
Can a human, dragon & satyr get on and while doing save the planet. An interesting question the remains to be answered.

Interesting concept
While the concept has possibilities, I just could not get interested in The storyline, the characters did not grab my attention and I did not finish the story.

I will continue reading this series…it’s an interesting premise. I will enjoy seeing if the characters develop with depth and feeling
