When humans became prey...

Set in the prehistory of the Cloud Lands world, “Dragon Prey” tells the story of how humans and dragons met for the first time.

Their early encounters are anything but auspicious. Humans and their livestock become the prey of invading “firebeasts”.

Sidren's clan is hanging on, helped by her unusual talent. She can sense the emotions of those firebeasts, allowing her to warn her clan of an impending attack and seek shelter.

Even so, their numbers dwindle, and trips to the burial cave have become too frequent.

What will it take for them to survive?

Love, forgiveness, survival, and dragons

5 stars

A very hopeful, love-affirming book about an old healer who not only establishes communication with dragons, but actually saves her people by building friendships with the creatures that had once thought of humans as nothing but prey.

There is much forgiveness, but also an understanding of the necessity of accepting with offered forgiveness has been refused.

As other reviews noted there's a lot of well-written fights, but for me love, forgiveness, and new lives from the ashes of old are the heart of the story.
