Dragon Cursed

By Elise Kova
Dragon Cursed by Elise Kova digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Now optioned for film by Amazon MGM Studios!

The moment you see a dragon is usually your last…

Since the dragons emerged–along with the scourge that ravaged our lands and people–there’s only one human city that remains standing: Vinguard.

But the hellfire from above is nothing compared to the threat from within. For there is no worse fate than being dragon cursed. Slowly and excruciatingly, you’ll be transformed into a mindless beast who destroys everything–and everyone–you love.

Any of us could be tainted. Any of us could be lying. Any of us could be caught and killed by the authorities.

And I’m terrified that I might be next.

There’s only one other person who might suspect my secret. He’s like my shadow, following me wherever I go. Part protector, part tormentor, fully annoying. Sometimes I think I am just one of the million unfathomable secrets he keeps hidden.

Because Lucan definitely knows something.

And if I’m dragon cursed, death might be the only mercy I get.

Dragon Cursed Reviews

4.5
“This was good, but it was very much the first book in a series, so I have some questions I need answered. Also it took me until about page 200 to really get into the story and the characters, which is… a lot. The ending was very interesting though so I’m not mad!”
“Dragons? Humans turning into dragons? Bring. It. On. With a fast moving plot and exciting twists and turns, you are in for a real treat! The cover is gorgeous, which immediately draws your attention and the blurb makes me want to dive right in! Dragons have abilities based on their scale colors. I love that they don't just breathe fire! To prove that they aren't cursed, humans have to go through Tribunals. Isola isn't sure if she is cursed or not. The banter back and forth between the FMC and the MMC is well done. I really like the interactions between them. You also don't know if Isola can trust Lucan; he turns on her just when she thinks she can trust him. She goes through the Tribunals with her best friend, Saipha, by her side. I love how the trials are written; they stand out from the usual portrayals in books. You are left guessing what will happen. The unexpected twists and turns are well executed! It's easy to be mislead thinking you have it figured out, only to be completely blindsinded! Wow!! This is a fantastic book! The world building, pacing and flow kept me completely engaged. I didn't want to put it down! It has you captivated in ways you never thought it would! I'm really looking forward to book two! "Remember: The deadliest dragon is the one within." "Bravery isn't about conquering easy challenges. It's about facing what scares you and doing it anyway."”
