Gold Dragon (Heritage of Power Book 5) Kindle Edition

Now that Trip’s siblings are safely back in the capital, he would like it if life got back to normal. As normal as possible for a half-dragon army officer learning to use his magical powers when he isn’t busy piloting with Wolf Squadron.

But trouble keeps popping up, and the capital isn’t the safe haven Trip had hoped. More and more dragons are working together, with attacks growing frequent as they scheme to claim the country for themselves. Equally daunting, Rysha wants to introduce Trip to her parents, parents who want a proper nobleman for their daughter, not some odd commoner sired by a dragon.

If Trip is to have any chance of bringing peace to the country—and impressing Rysha’s parents—he’ll have to finally and fully embrace what he is and what he can do. Before time runs out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Strong ending to an imaginative saga- 2 thumbs up

Friendship, love, dragons... action and adventure. A fun read from start to finish, and a grand ending to an enjoyable saga. Enjoyed the characters as they grew personally and professionally. Most definitely a book that I found hard to put down, even as sleep called my name. I hated to see the series end.

I really like this book. It wrapped up a number of series storylines quite nicely, and I love happy endings. No, that isn't a spoiler for anyone who reads Ms. Buroker's books! The world building and character development in her books are top notch and always keep me wanting more. I held off reading the fourth book in this series until I also had the fifth book because I knew I would be desperate to stay in the story! This particular book is full of humor and adventure and human, well human and dragon, relationships. A very fun read that I would recommend to anyone.

4.0 out of 5 stars Exciting Series of Dragons, the Riders and Children

Reading this last book of this series, I find myself wanting more. As usual when ending one of Buroker's books I have a hard time leaving. The characters have begun to seem like friends and I wonder how they're doing and if one officer is now open to having children or how the relationships are doing. With this one is I feel like shouting more, more!!! I feel like we'll need to catch up again and if I will get the chance to watch Tripp's baby siblings grow up a bit. Then the usual s l wondering about sends now departed, will Trip and Rysha marry sometime soon, now that the king has married a commoner. Will they continue working for the Iskandlia Air Force. All the while feeling the need to watch as the mages and sorcerers begin to grow in number and power are see if they're beginning to change the old system of nobility to one off power. A Great Series and a lovely happy ending with the wedding of the stern Kingv Angulus to the lovely Officer and Bomb expert extrordinaire Major Kaika! Are future heirs in the future for Isklandia?? So much more to wonder about. Maybe another book in af year or so?

Although you say you don't know if you will tell the siblings story, I feel deep down that you will. You have a gift that many good writers wish they had. You write about people you know and dragon's you've ridden. Oh how I would love a journey through your imagination. What a journey that would be. Please keep writing and always let your heart shine through. Never read a better series or a better author...BRAVO.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun Read! Good finish to story arc, but don't want the story and characters to end.

Loved this book. Trip and Rysha both mature in this book and I loved Shulina Arya. The book answers a lot of the questions from the Previous Books but does leave enough loose ends that more stories in this world of Dragons would be possible!! I would love to find out more about Trip's siblings, and Shulina needs her own Romance Story with a special hero! This books has all of the action , snark, and quirkiness we love about a "Lindsay Buroker" book. I hate that this is the last book in the series for now. Hoping the author decides that certain Dragon's and Mages need more stories!!!

... an unconventional wedding that you may or may not have seen coming. (And no, I don't mean going back to Ridge and Sardelle's; that story, "Oaths", is still forthcoming.)

There's more than one method attempted to deal with invading dragons this time, from Iskandia's dragon allies and the chapaharii sword-weilders, of course, to bargaining, to Trip's inventions. In the end, things are looking safely settled. (BTW, I have to to ask, am I the only one who keeps starting to say "chappa'ai" instead of "chapaharii"? I miss Stargate!)

Dragons aren't the only source of conflict, as Rysha's family continue being reluctant to accept either her military career or her non-aristocratic lover, especially with his whiff of the Other — and an embarrassing incident doesn't make it easier for Trip to face them! Trip's efforts to help them deal with a noble-blooded, ignoble-natured schemer land him in possibly serious legal trouble.

Oh, and speaking of parents, we get to meet the two male bronze dragons who raised Sulina Arya, both research scientists seeking a solution for the difficulty of human and dragon populations vying for land and resources.

But if you know Lindsay Buroker, you know that there's never a shortage of lighthearted moments, before, after, and often during the action scenes. Teasing is typical between romantic partners and among pilots (including Gen. Zirkander). The differently but equally irrepressible "god" Bhrava Saruth and youthfully eager Sulina Arya keep stealing the scene. And let's not forget the soulblades, fire-happy old friend Jaxi, and Azarwrath, who keeps hoping to sample culinary delicacies via Trip's taste buds.

The airborne battle climax is one of several exciting scenes (though it didn't feel like the most certain resolution I've ever read). I enjoyed more than enough in this story to easily give it a fourth star. The only bit that really felt missing to me was Trip talking with the grandparents who raised him about all he'd discovered of his origins. The proofreading/ editing was thorough and clean.

Lindsay has done it again. A great read mixing believable characters, high adventure, love interests and puzzles to be resolved.

The book could be read on its own but is a fine and with the return of large numbers of dragons to this authors world with their sometimes acrimonious interactions with humans a logical conclusion (possibly interim) to the current Heritage of Power series, itself following on from the previous Dragon Blood series. I look forward in the future to Lindsay returning to this world and how events continue to unfurl.

I must admit I haven't enjoyed a book containing dragons as much since the works of the late Anne McCaffrey albeit that Lindsay has in some ways taken a more 'traditional' view of dragon-human relationships. The introduction of the 'first' dragon rider, in possibly millenia , promises the potential for many more adventures in this universe.

Obviously for me five stars again.
