Knight returns to the Mageverse, June 8, 2007
If you have read any Angela Knight books you know they are "HOT" well be prepared this one is dynamite. As a matter of fact over half the book is in the bedroom, so to speak. Nevertheless, the story is fantastic. I don't know if this is the last one in the Mageverse, but I would think not. However, after this one she may have to stretch to get another one with as much action in the bedroom and out.
Nineva Morrow is a half human/half fairy princess, she is the avatar of a Goddess,Semira, who is imprisioned in a sword. She has been raised to know her destiny is to free the Goddess. She has visions and dreams of a blue dragon incinerating her. So she is not exactly thrilled to meet Kel.
Kel is a cobalt blue dragon, for 1500 yrs he was imprisoned in a sword. His friendship with Gwain got him through and in MASTER OF SWORDS he was finally released. Now the God of the Dragons has asked him to protect Nineva and help her release Semira. Semira is a fertility goddess and needs to be recharged by her avatar. Kel and Nineva do their best to recharge the goddess.
The Dark Ones are after Nineva, they have already stolen Llyr's sword and using the power of Nineva and Semira they will destroy the wards Merlin left to protect Earth.
This is a wonderful adult type fairy tale, and I liked it. It really did remind me of the fairy tales I read as a child, but with alot more detail and intimacy. Most of the characters from her other books make an appearance in this one.

Dragons Rule!, June 5, 2007
Master of Dragons pairs up dragon and a princess, right off the bat, you know Ms. Knight's working her own brand of magic, because usually the dragons eat the princess, right? Well, okay, I'll give you that's the case here too, but not the way you'd think.
Nineva is a fairy princess and also the the last of avatar of her goddess. She's in exile because an evil king who wants to kill her to stop a prophecy from coming true. All her life she's dreamed of a man, who despite his beauty, brings great pain, in the form of dragon's fire.
Kel is a dragon, however, when you're imprisoned in a sword for over a thousand years you have a lot of time to learn magic, including the spell to turn human. Once freed, he became the first Knight of the Round Table in over four hundred years, an honor he was happy to accept with all the many perks, and women that came along with it. But he's still a dragon first, so when his dragon god asks him to protect Nineva, he takes the job very seriously.
Nineva and Kel are the latest couple paired up to battle almost insurmountable odds to save the Mageverse and subsequently Earth as well. This time she's added the dragons to her vamps, witches, fairies and were's and oh my, what a mix it is! I loved Kel from the moment he talked out of that sword, and I've been wishing for his story ever since. They say be careful what you wish for.. well, they don't know what they're talking about. Kel and Nineva deliver on all levels. Kel is one of the sexiest heroes ever and Nineva is the most down to earth fairy princesses because of how she had to live. Master of Dragons is packed full of action, adventure, danger, romance, steam and just enough character cameos from the past books to satisfy your need to know that their Happily Ever Afters really did last forever after all.

Wow! Loved this one!, June 6, 2007
Nineva Morrow's whole life has been spent in preparation for freeing her goddess, Semira. As the twenty-first Avatar, Nineva knows this is her destiny despite her horrific visions. After all, her visions entail her being burned alive by a dragon in order to fulfill the prophecy and free Semira. When she meets the dragon knight Kel, she knows instantly he is the dragon from her visions. However, much more is at stake than just freeing Semira. Dark forces are at work... will these dark forces destroy Nineva, Kel, and even the Mageverse?
As a long time fan of the Mageverse series, all I can say after finishing MASTER OF DRAGONS is WOW!! Angela Knight has outdone herself with this one as it exceeds all expectations. I had hoped Kel's story would be one worthy of him, since he had endured being imprisoned in Gawain's sword for such a long time. Ms. Knight has created a story that was definitely worth the wait as Kel is allowed to truly shine in this tale. Without a doubt, MASTER OF DRAGONS is the best book yet in this phenomenal series.
Angela Knight has a talent for developing characters the reader can bond with as she puts a lot of emotion into her stories. Kel is the ultimate hero with his selfless behavior. Nineva needs a mate like Kel to soften the matyr's attitude she has developed. The intertwining of their fates is very nicely done as MASTER OF DRAGONS will satisfy both fantasy and paranormal romance fans.
Angela Knight is one of the masters at writing steamy paranormal romances. Her Mageverse series is packed with all sorts of supernatural creatures while her heroes and heroines generate quite a bit of heat. MASTER OF DRAGONS can definitely be read as a stand alone, although readers may be a bit overwhelmed by all of the characters as many of the past characters play important roles in this tale. However, I would at a minimum suggest reading MASTER OF SWORDS first simply because it contains a lot of Kel's past history and sets the stage for his character. MASTER OF DRAGONS is one heck of a read and easily recommended!
