I think what hurts me the most about the newest Dragonwatch book is the sheer potential in it.

It has so many places it could've done amazing things, but instead it did... That

The entire time that I was reading ROTDS I was waiting for Kendra to do anything important and I was so disappointed. Library.

No for real. She apparently handled a dragon but like- off screen- it's so frustrating.

You could've replaced her with a lamp and had the same result. It wasn't even inverting the importance of Seth and Kendra in KTTDP. There BOTH of them were super important.

Seth set off the events in a way, forcing the Sphinx to act in their favor, and then got several allies and went on a trip to get passage for them, face witches, challenge the undead, get a super important sword, and then kill 2 of the Biggest Demon figures around.

Kendra in turn helped regain some allies, bring the unicorn prince to the Queen, helped kill several enemies (even if she didn't personally), got Raxtus to get the dragons to come, and then killed the demon king.

Both of them did so much important stuff in KTTDP. Neither would've succeeded without the other. Their actions combined to save the day.

But in ROTDS it's Seth doing everything. Seth escapes, Seth gets two op swords, Seth kills over 100 dragons (we did MATH), Seth steals from the dragon king, Seth steals from the Giants, Seth trades with the Demon King, Seth goes to the Source, Seth becomes an Angel, Seth kills Celebrant-

Kendra... goes on a quest for dragon slayers who die in five minutes and gets betrayed. Oh, and handles a dragon off-screen.

The contrast is infuriating.

Love how Brandon gave Knox literally everything he needed to have character growth then said "no 💞"

13. Sasquatches blur the line between reality and fantasy, because some people believe in them, while others don’t. Do you think sasquatches are real? Why or why not? What other cryptids interest you?

Sasquatch isn't a cryptid, it's a creature in native folklore/mythology. Have some respect.
