Dragons and humans had once coexisted, fighting a common enemy. However, one day, the humans banished the dragons to a dying world. When one dragon is dragged back to the human world by a bond with a human. Will he follow the prophecy and bring back the dragons with the death of this human, or will he test fate and try saving his human, letting the dragons die with their world?

L.R. Lam’s “Dragonfall” is a 334-page novel divided into 48 chapters. It was rereleased with a Barnes and Noble exclusive hardback, with beautiful, sprayed edges.

The physical version of the book includes a couple of things that the eBook doesn’t. It includes some added information, such as a brief history of key events in the story. It also has a Q&A from Lam in the back.

However, they both share a map of Loc, the land where most of the book takes place.

The chapters are split into five POVs. Two are for the main characters, Arcady and Everen, and three are for the minor main characters, Sorin, Cassia, and Magnes. Before the chapter title, it has one of the characters’ names to indicate whose POV it is.

In the chapters that follow Arcady and Everen, the writing style is first person. Whereas the other chapters are all in the third person.

This makes the novel very interesting. It makes the first-person chapters feel like you’re reading someone’s letters or their diary. The others make it feel like you’re looking on from an outside perspective. The whole book itself is written under the pretense that it’s a prophecy from the past.

“Dragonfall” is a fantasy book with a clear enemies-to-lovers romance between Arcady and Everen. Though on top of a fantasy and romance story it would also fit into an LGBTQ+ fantasy.

Arcady themselves are genderfluid/nonbinary, and in the kingdom of the story, most people are first identified using they/them pronouns until the character specifies a preference.

I would highly recommend this book to those who are interested in dragons and magic.
