Dragon Rider/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Cliché Storm: Pretty much, yeah. It's still a good book, but the plot, setting and characters don't do anything new for the fantasy genre. What with typical dragons, elves, fairies, dwarves, The Chosen One, an orphaned main character, and all...at least it's well-written.
  • Complete Monster: Nettlebrand. Let's see, he ate all of Twigleg's brothers and the alchemist who made them, hunted the dragons to the edge of extinction and drove the remaining ones into hiding, and he treats his Mooks like dirt. By extension, Nettlebrand's creator, who supplied all his... well, monster-ness just so he could create gold and strike it rich, and needed the horns of dragons to do it.
  • The Woobie: Twigleg.
