I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review but it was also free for a promotion at the same time.With Dragon, I was hooked from the beginning The story covers two distinct societies a technologically advanced one, and one with advanced natural powers The two main characters Rone and Keiara were very likable and well developed The action was well paced and the world was very well detailed I could easily imagine the peoples in my mind and how their world worked The uses of the [...]

Dragon is a strong debut novel from Rustin Petrae The author is ultra creative and has a huge imagination, which really came through in the details of the world he s created The story has everything from nano creations to Avatars to shapeshifters, all surrounding an ongoing power struggle that threatens to tear two very different civilizations apart The villains are ultra evil, the good guys are true heroes, and there are no weak characters in this book.In a lot of ways, it was similar to Avatar [...]

This book is a creative mix of fantasy and science fiction that isn t likely all too futuristic, though it may seem that way when reading, yet the building blocks are already well established Be prepared, for this book is filled with fascinating characters, a creatively designed world, and plot twists that easily challenge a corkscrew Once you begin reading you won t want to stop until you ve finished the book, and then all you ll do us want to grab Book Two, which sadly isn t due out until July [...]

I simply could not put this down Book One Dragon by Rustin Petrae is an outstanding story in which fantasy and science fiction are seemlessly melded together in a believable world.The story begins with Prince Rone, the bored heir to the throne of the Kingdom of Roanoke, a technologically advanced civilization whose citizens make use of personal nanobots and blueprint programs to build a nearly limitless variety of machines for themselves Feeling trapped by the duties and responsibilities that ar [...]

Thank you to the author, Rustin Petrae, for gifting me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review I don t think I ve ever read a book quite like this one It s like a combination of everything I imagine in my head science fiction stuff I don t really know how to structure this review so lets just jump right in I really loved the setting and just generally the world It was really different but also was described in a way that I could picture everything and I always knew what was goi [...]

Really good book I had a hard time putting it down I enjoyed the way you brought the two different worlds together The Terraqouis people being connected to nature, and the Rooks being connected to technology The way this author has brought these two worlds together was seemless.One thing that I would like to have seen sooner in the book is the powers of Keiara develope a little sooner in the story Granted the way the book ended with her fully developed powers makes you want to read the second bo [...]

Oh my god, I hate you Argh Why do you have to make me wait so long for the next book I M DYING HERE

I got a copy for review in exchange for an honest review.I really enjoyed reading this book, although I did have some issues with it Mainly it is a very enjoyable story with a nice idea, but some of it could ve been done better.The story is really interesting and enjoyable I liked the idea of having two groups of people live next to each other that are so different and are always in war Although contrary to what the blurb suggest this book is not much about war The blurb made me expect a very di [...]

Mr Petrae let me just start by saying you are a master storyteller Your talent shines through in this novel and I now consider myself a huge fan I didn t want to put this book down and was saddened that my life kept pulling me away from your world.I don t even know where to start The story is filled with so much that I m afraid I will leave something out and not do it justice in my review To keep from giving too much away I will stick to the basics and tell you my general thoughts.First, it is h [...]

Dragon is quite the compelling novel Like an AU Romeo and Juliet The blend of science fiction and fantasy, futuristic and old world, high tech and natural, within its pages is well done and will appeal to readers of both genres I really enjoyed the aspects of the nano machines as well as being able to shape shift The characters were likeable, and each had their own voice view spoiler I also enjoyed Mr Petrae s very nice twist with the Behemoth hide spoiler While Dragon has a lot of good points, [...]

Rustin Petrae creates a tangible world unlike any I have ever read about.Where you are either a Rook technologically advanced person One who has grown up using tiny nano robots to recreate an extension of your ideas If you are one of the few you can create anything you put your mind to But most have vast blueprints at a fingers touch.OR Your life has been one close to the earth, living off what is naturally grown Terraquois the totally counter part of the Rooks in almost every way Upon living ha [...]

This was a fun fantasy story with some really fun ideas I loved the sci fi elements in regards to the people of Roanoke I felt the story started strong, especially with nanobots and mechpaks, which are specialized computers physically part of the Rook people, and have the capacity to release nanobots tini robots that turn into or become whatever the person has asked it to become This was a really fun idea.I also loved the Terraquois people and there ability to shape shift and take on the form, s [...]

I received this book from the author in exchange for a fair and unbiased review Having said that, i really liked the book Rustin Petrae did an excellent job of blending sci fi and fantasy into a most enjoyable story.The novel revolves around the technology loving Rooks and the nature loving Terraquois The son of the Rooks king, Rone, is targeted for assassination by a rebel element within the Rooks When the attempt appears to be successful and Rone crashes his transport in the desert near the Te [...]

I was given this book to read for free from the author in return for an honest review.I absolutely loved this book It reads like a sci fi movie playing in your head The characters are lovable and memorable and I love how the narrative is told through multiple characters instead of just one or the author himself The world created by the author as well as the races of people created are fascinating to say the least and very original It s a very fast paced read and none stop action.I will most cert [...]

This is a good book It s worth reading even though its kinda confusing at the start.I m not stupid, just slightly confused DLove the merging of old and new, love and hate, war and peace.I love the setting and the characters.I also love the way both Rooks and Terraquois were so bloody misinformed of each other that its funny.This book also reminded me that wars started because of men with huge egos No offence, guys DLove the surroundings and love love love love EVERYTHING.Rustin Petrae is definit [...]

I thought this was a great book The creativity of it in itself was amazing Rustin Petrae created two completely different worlds, and put so much detail into both of them I was in love with both Rone and Keiara right from the beginning The only thing I would criticize is the fact that there s no mystery in the book that everything is given to you right away For example who the monster is and what animal Keiara is But all in all it was a very good book, and I would recommend it to those who love [...]

Yeah, this was pretty good Good story, good characters, good writing Just a good Fantasy novel that I enjoyed reading It certainly was worth my time not that I had something else to do, I was sick so okay and I will be reading it again when I feel like reading some good fantasy Short review, sorry

This is a new mix of Fantasy Sci Fi with great action, interesting characters A titanic struggle between two different races of human, one with Hi Tech toys galore The other shape shifters and a deep attachment to nature.This book left me spellbound and panting for the next volume.

I was given a copy of Dragon Book One Histories of Purga by author Rustin Petrae, in exchange for an honest review I met Mr Petrae on After a quick discussion about his book, I was than interested in reading what he had I actually was to read the book Roc Book Two Histories of Purga However, in order to understand what was going on, he sent me the first book, just to catch up Dragon starts off in the Kingdom of Roanoke Rone sees that Lady Guilder is sporting wounds that she received at the hand [...]

If there is a map in the book, it makes me expect a good story One where is a whole different world and people dealing with some kind of danger threatening to destroy what they have And it was a really good story The I read, the and eagerly I turned pages.This story is kind of a legend It starts with seemingly small events but eventually it comes to a big picture and it gets bigger and bigger It has intensity, actions, dangers, secrets and treachery At the same time it tells a story about peo [...]

HE WAS HER ENEMY SHE SAVED HIS LIFE THE REST IS HISTORY Rooks have embraced science and technology, inventing helpful, microscopic robots called nanos to create any machine they need The Terraqouis are their opposite They embraced the spiritual, developing a deep bond with nature This bond allows them to shift into the animal that resembles their own, inner selves These two races have fought each other with brutal savagery for centuries But things change when the Rook prince, Rone Varlamagne, is [...]

I really hope that everyone who reads this book enjoyed it I have always been a fan of both science fiction and fantasy and I had fun combining the two genres into one book I think that I melded them together convincingly but only time, and reader opinion, will tell.
