Review - DragonRider by S. Rodman
My rating:
Kirby has set himself up as a sort of freelance mage, offering wards, spells, maybe the odd potion, to whomever needs them. He receives a commission involving a castle in Wales, but he’s not sure of the specifics. When he arrives, the imperious young man who greets him informs Kirby that he is just there to “round out the numbers” for the selection of a new dragon rider. Dragons were one of the few mythical creatures that Kirby was sure didn’t exist, so he’s thrilled just to get to meet one.

Zelli has had a crush on one of the guards, Tahlen, since the day he arrived.

Then word comes to the Lotus Pavillion that the Duke of Goa is trading in N'Bosoti artifacts. The mission requires the pair to go undercover in a way that threatens to open old wounds for Ivan.
