Loading... Darkness Descendingby Harry Turtledove
None. As this series continues, it continues to parallel the history of World War 2. Small nations have been engulfed and ethnic cleansing begins. The story continues on both the ground and the air, but most of the action is from the point of view of aerial troops - in this case, dragon riders who both fight their dragons and drop explosive 'dragon eggs'. This was interesting, but because of the lack of technology, it felt static, and in places Turtledove has to cheat, as it is a lot harder to replace a lost dragon than it is a lost airplane, for example. (  ) Karlstar | Mar 3, 2013 |  This is the second book in this excellent series. I spent the entire time trying to match the fictional countries of Turtledove's universe to the powers which were actually involved in WW2. I got most of them. I got very attached to many of the characters, even those I didn't believe I could become attached to. Very well written war story, though the love scenes could have been much better.
