Read Alison Goodman's blogs and other content on the Penguin Community.Eon has been revealed as Eona, the first female Dragoneye in hundreds of years. Along with fellow rebels Ryko and Lady Dela, she is on the run from High Lord Sethon's army. The renegades are on a quest for the black folio, stolen by the drug-riddled Dillon; they must also find Kygo, the young Pearl Emperor, who needs Eona's power and the black folio if he is to wrest back his throne from the selfstyled "Emperor" Sethon. Through it all, Eona must come to terms with her new Dragoneye identity and power - and learn to bear the anguish of the ten dragons whose Dragoneyes were murdered. As they focus their power through her, she becomes a dangerous conduit for their plans. . . . Eona, with its pulse-pounding drama and romance, its unforgettable fight scenes, and its surprises, is the conclusion to an epic only Alison Goodman could create.

"<strong>I keep coming back to this</strong><br/><br/>As I write this review this is not the first time I’ve finished this duology and I doubt it will be the last. This is a story of a fantasy world so full and nuanced that you’d believe you were reading of a tangible place. The characters within are just as nuanced, with no ‘good’ or ‘bad’ characters (except maybe Sethon). All the good guys have flaws and all the bad, have their own sympathetic qualities. Eona makes some deplorable choices, and she changes as a person. But she stays true to herself. You’ll never fully love a character or hate one (except sethon). And your opinion may change through the story."
