He is basically the baby of the family, as his parents deliberately had him set up as the Queen’s personal bodyguard precisely because they aren’t certain that he could cut it out there in the wild and dangerous world outside. In this one, Celyn the Charming gets the spotlight when it comes to the romance department. The series have expanded to become more mainstream comedy fantasy than strictly romance, however, so every later book in the series is basically an ensemble story. If you have no idea what this series is about, let’s just say that it revolves around a bunch of dragons – who can shift into hot human form, so don’t worry, this isn’t an illegal kind of animal love we’re talking about here – and their ins and outs with humans and dragons. I am not going to even try to give a “The story so far!” kind of synopsis because I would probably need a small pamphlet to do the job. Practically everyone from previous books is here, along with his or her spawns, and even if the new reader manages to work through the large cast appearance, this book is still best appreciated if the reader gets the many references to previous events in the other books. There are already seven titles before Light My Fire in GA Aiken’s Dragon Kin series, so it is definitely not newbie-friendly.
