It would be interesting to explore the empath powers thematically throughout Songflight, and in just how many respects they portray or typify empathetic struggles, whether there's any more nuanced analogy going on; but that would require a reread on my part that I don't currently have time to give ;) Jensen, Erin (June 22, 2016).

It's the perfect coming of age tale with a troubled heroine and an original fantasy land full of strange Celtic spiritual charm. I haven't cared so much about draconic characters since Eragon or Dreamwalker.

The relationship dynamics between her and each character were fun to watch, and I'm eager to see how one or two in particular carry forward into the next book.
