- Review For The Book: Rise Of The Last Dragon Knight

Rise Of The Last Dragon Knight by AngelWarrior7118

Title:
Rise Of The Last Dragon Knight gives me high fantasy mood already which I like. It's enough for me to want to know more. After I read the title, I went to the blurb and saw that the title does match with what your plot will look like which readers will like. In some cases I find shorter titles a little bit more intriguing however you do a great way of including details to pull the readers in. For example, you used "last" as the description of the dragon knight which adds tension and importance of the title and ultimately your book. Good job with that!

Blurb:
I can understand the idea of the plot but I feel like the blurb is not as intense as I would have liked it to be. Readers get a little bit introduced to Arya and her background as well as her goal in the book which I find intriguing. However, at the end, we learn that she falls in love with the son of the King. I find it disappointing that the blurb ended there because it reduces the impact of that forbidden and dangerous love. It would increase the tension if you added questions such as "Will Arya get past the feelings that grow bigger each day and complete the  task that will help end the corruption? Or will she think of herself and let her feelings blindly overtake her?" This is just an example and definitely not perfect but it's enough to give readers a start to question the conflict of the plot and form their own ideas of the ending.

First chapter/opening scene:
I liked the plot more and more as I read the prologue. However, I highly suggest you flip some things around with the opening scene so that readers continue to read the book with more enjoyment. For example, you started off the book with the quote and for some, the quotes work with opening the chapter. However, for you, I would suggest opening it like this -

King Arthur's booming voice echoed throughout the dark chamber, "You cannot continue down this path! Humanity was never meant to rule over the world. We were all meant to live in harmony with the creatures and the Dragons that also inhabit this place!"

And then say...He was clad in shining black armor adorned with flames of purple fire on his breastplate...

See what I did there? I flipped some things around with your first and second paragraph to make it a little bit more balanced. Opening scene is extremely important to keep the readers engaged and with just a little bit changes with your paragraphs you'll have a perfect start.

Overall, you have a great way of describing characters and where they are which readers and I will like. Moreover, there were barely any grammatical errors and I was never turned off by your writing and that's important. When readers see you are acting professionally with writing your book, they will appreciate you more. You asked me if this is a good start for writing an original book and I can assure you it's more than good. You have a potential to make this book amazing because of the plot you have started and there is a lot of room to create a great world building. I'm excited to see where your story goes <33
