I finished The Last Dragon of the East in a weekend! This romantic fantasy is swoony, action packed, and heart warming at once. Talk about a book that had me shedding tears at the end. Keep reading this book review of The Last Dragon of the East for my full thoughts.
Summary
At the spry young age of twenty-five, Sai has led a quiet life, keeping the family teahouse up and running—even if that means ignoring the past-due notices—and taking care of his ailing mother. But he has a not-so-secret gift that he’s parlayed into a side career: he was born with the ability see the red threads of fate between soulmates, which lends itself nicely to matchmaking. Sai has thus far been content not to follow his own thread, the only one he’s ever seen that’s gray and fraying.
But Sai’s ordinary existence is about to be turned upside-down by a pair of shining dragon scales. When his mother’s doctor sells them to him, claiming them as a miracle cure, Sai is pretty sure he’s being scammed. When the medicine actually works—and the terrifying, ruthless emperor catches wind—Sai is thrust into the search for a dragon long thought extinct that will lead him into the throes of a brewing war and deep into foreign lands, facing down challenges both magical and mortal on an unexpected adventure. And for the very first time, as his own thread of fate begins to move, he may be able to solve the mystery of his Fated One at the other end of the line.
Review
(Disclaimer: I received this book from the publisher. This has not impacted my review which is unbiased and honest.)
The Last Dragon of the East begins as a story about the threads of fate. About the loves that carry us through the long nights. The hope of finding someone who would be our Fated One. And then it becomes a story about mystery, the power of love, and revenge. When the avalanche begins, it roars. The Last Dragon of the East is swoony whether it be the atmospheric setting or the action which propels readers through the story. We love good banter and this delivers!
We fall into this story that feels expansive and immersive. A story about the power of love throughout time. The heartbreaks of loss, the ways we always assume the best, and the power of vengeance. The Last Dragon of the East is emotional. If you love a romantic swoony fantasy, then you have to add this one to your TBR! It’s a go-to recommendation now!
