Magick and Lead: Dragons and Aces Series, Book 2

by Paige Reisenfeld J. G. Gates

4.3

The kingdom has fallen, and Essa’s world lies in ruins. Blaming the catastrophe on the man she once loved—Charlie, a daring biplane pilot from the enemy nation across the sea—Essa is left to lead her surviving dragon riders in a desperate fight for survival. When she discovers that the young dragon bonded to Charlie is a rare and powerful stellhan, she realizes she holds the key to reclaiming her homeland. There is only one catch: the dragon’s bond is unbreakable while its rider lives, forcing Essa to make an impossible choice. Driven by duty and vengeance, Essa crosses the ocean to infiltrate Charlie’s urban world of skyscrapers and jazz. Her mission is clear: track down her former lover, sever the bond, and eliminate the traitor. Yet, stepping into enemy territory brings her face-to-face with the man who broke her heart, only to find that their connection is far from extinguished. Featuring the high-stakes tension of an enemies-to-lovers romance, *Magick and Lead* blends gritty fantasy with 1920s-inspired aesthetics. As Essa and Charlie navigate a dangerous web of court intrigue and divided loyalties, they must decide if their lingering love is a weakness to be exploited or their last hope for redemption.

Jaw dropping!

Image 78: A 1x1 image, likely be a tacker probe Amazon Customer](javascript:void(0)) 5 out of 5 stars Jaw dropping! This world! Gates has done an excellent job in world building here. There are dragons and riders and bi-planes and aces. Dark, dark magic. Vampyres. Traitors. Friends. Lovers. And fast-paced action. A jaw dropping ending that will leave you screaming for the next book (that releases in July)! Poor Charlie and Essa. There are characters you love and characters you hate. I read where someone compared it to Indiana Jones with dragons, and I couldn’t have said it better than them. That exactly what it’s like. Gates did not disappoint. This is one of my top series this year! I can’t wait to . And I’m adding his other series to my TBR.

3 4.3 out of 5 stars](javascript:void(0))(295) Book 2 of 4: Dragons and Aces Series Sorry, there was a problem loading this page. Try again. See all formats and editions A dragon rider. A biplane pilot. Two enemy nations, one epic love story. Her mother is dead. Her kingdom has fallen. And the person to blame for it is the man Essa loves—Charlie, a famed biplane pilot from the enemy nation across the sea. But Charlie is gone now, flown back to the cursed country he came from, and Essa and her surviving band of dragon riders fight to protect what's left of their kingdom. Essa soon learns that the young dragon bonded with Charlie is a stellhan, the most powerful of all dragon types. He could be the key to winning her kingdom back—if only his bond to the traitorous Charlie were severed. The only way to break a dragon bond? Death. Essa flies across the sea, leaving her fantastical homeland for a city full of skyscrapers, streetcars, and jazz. She's determined to kill her former lover, free the powerful baby dragon from its bond, and take her kingdom back. The only thing that could possibly stand in her way? Charlie still loves her. Dragons and Aces is an enemies-to-lovers romantasy series featuring a morally gray love interest, mistaken identity, court intrigue, and spice.
