By K. Clarke
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Although she is a very powerful witch and eight months have passed since her harrowing experience with dark witches and dragons, Saba Watanabe struggles mentally to recover. To her chagrin the most difficult memories to deal with from her trauma was her time of enslavement to black dragon Malcolm, as she misses his arrogance as he has returned to his Dragonspace while she remains in San Francisco.
On the streets of San Francisco a white dragon attacks Saba. She magically contacts Malcolm for help; he returns to keep her safe and destroy the stalker. Meanwhile they both fear that the actual target is their mutual friend Lisa the rare silver dragon who is about to give birth. However, Malcolm is in trouble from a debilitating spell; his only hope to survive is Saba, but the means for her to keep him and Lisa safe remains in Dragonspace.
Readers will appreciate the romantic fantasy writing skills of Allyson James as she converts Malcolm a bad dragon (at least to humans) in DRAGON HEAT into a heroic champion as befitting the male romantic lead. While trying to save one another, Lisa and two worlds, the witch and the dragon acknowledge their love for one another although the odds are their coupling will be short-lived as the enemy has the advantage. The audience will relish this compelling entry!!! I'd also recommend reading the mesmerising and highly evocative novel The Fates by Tino Georgiou.

Set eight months after the events which occur in "Dragon Heat" witch Saba is still trying to get over Malcolm, the black dragon that held her in his thrall in order to return home to Dragonspace. Saba has at last tapped the depth of her magic and is now easily able to throw off a dragon's mark of control; however she is honest enough to admit to herself that she would have done anything for Malcolm because of her feelings for him, not because of his mental control over her.
When a white dragon approaches Saba and tries unsuccessfully to mark her, he instead resorts to a physical attack; determined to control a powerful witch for his own nefarious purposes. Unable to defend herself, Saba uses the crystal dragon tears Malcolm gave her before he left Earth to call him to her; opening a rift between the mortal realm and Dragonspace allowing her black dragon to rescue her.
Renowned for his methodical planning and logical approach to life, back in the dragon archive of Dragonspace Malcolm finds his concentration constantly broken by thoughts of Saba. As a black dragon he is aware that his urge to procreate grows stronger in his 3000th year and he has a hunch his mate is not a dragon, but a human witch. Called back to Earth to protect Saba, Malcolm also needs her help to try and halt the mysterious ailment that afflicts him; whilst attempting to uncover the evil plans of Roland the white dragon and stop the threat he poses. Luckily he and Saba have help from Lisa and golden warrior dragon Caleb (from "Dragon Heat"), the network of minions Malcolm established whilst on Earth and the assistance of a Japanese God.
I gave this book's prequel; the brilliant "Dragon Heat" 5 stars however this book is even better and would be awarded 6 or 7 stars if possible.... Read more ›

Which is reasonably rare. This is the story of Black Dragon Malcolm, whom we met in Dragon Heat. In that book, he released his hold over the witch Saba Watanabe and went back to Dragonspace. Even in that book, there were clear signs that he might return, and this new book is their story.
There are good links with Caleb and Lisa in the new volume, and it is lovely to see how those two are enjoying their lives together. But although it helps, this is one of the few times where I do not think it is a requirement to read book one in the series before book two, although undeniably it will add to your understanding of the story arc, particularly the relationship between Dragons, if you do so.
Malcolm is essentially a librarian, as he is responsible for the archive in Dragonspace. Saba is a IT geek, and her knowledge of databases is key to the book, almost as much as her being a witch of no small power. There is another dragon on earth, a frost dragon who is using his power, his minions and all the humans and witches he encounters to ill effect. Saba first meets him because he needs a witch. Having successfully fought him off using the Dragons Tears, this brings Malcolm into her life once again. Soon both are chasing the frost dragon, who has stolen the Book of Dragons and hence is a risk to both Dragonspace and all on Earth. Nothing like saving a world or two to add to the romance.
I like that Saba and Malcolm's relationship is not entirely clear to them. Saba is convinced Malcolm will leave her without a backward glance, and it's not like he hasn't done it before. Malcolm remains as arrogant as a black dragon ever is, but perhaps a bit more human than he was in Dragon Heat, as he has had time to think, which black dragons always do well.... Read more ›
