Mordred and St. George, patron saint of
England, have been together in the Realm of Dreams for
centuries. They have pledged their help to some special
humans in the battle against all sorts of magical creatures
that have been appearing all over Europe. This is putting a
strain on their relationship. At the end of the day they
must decide whether their love is strong enough to withstand
separation, doubts, and insidious companions whispering in
their ears.
Dreaming of Dragons continues the story of
Kael, Hugh, Mordred, and George as their stories are
inevitably intertwined. This time Mordred and George bear
the brunt of the stress of battle as it takes place mostly
within the Realm of Dreams. As the story unfolds we
discover that Mordred is nowhere near as nonchalant about
his image of self-absorption, while George is found to
be unhappy with the parts of his life which does not involve
Mordred – something that causes Mordred untold hours of
misery as he doubts his ability to truly make George happy.
When these two men come together it is romantic and
inspiring as their love has been centuries in the
unfolding. Still, the magical plot seems a gloss over the
romance as it never really deepens or becomes truly
intriguing. Dreaming of Dragons is an average
read for a lazy day under the sun. |
