This is the book where things start getting really good. We see more of the characters we know and love and, best of all, they get more time to interact with each other. Which I completely love. We also meet one of my favorite grumpy characters of all time, Colonel Therrik. Well, we meet him for just a brief little while before he gets tossed on the side of the road.

Death Maker, Dragon Blood Book 2
Book 2 is pitched as a stand-alone but is best read after Book 1, in my opinion. We get to follow the story of Caslin, who had been presumed dead in the first book. She’s not dead, but she is in trouble and held captive in enemy hands. When she goes from the pot into the fire, her adventures are just beginning.
The Dragon Blood Collection, Books 1-3 Omnibus
The Dragon Blood Omnibus by Lindsay Buroker is a great introduction to the series and will save you a ton of money vs picking up each book individually. But be warned! You’ll end up buying the rest of the books in the series just to keep in touch with your favorite characters.
