Wait...this isn't the Netflix series of a road trip to Xadia with Callum, Rayla, Ezran, and Zym! Ehaz must've copied Rawn! 
Ok, name confusion aside this is a pretty good adventure with plenty of action and drama around. Rohan and Sioned have good chemistry. I know everyone will want me to address...that deplorable event. Honestly, it could've been done better but hey at least it's not Ramsay Bolton x Sansa Stark all over again.
PS Sorry @Wyrdness! I know you expected me to tear this to shreds! 
PPS Is it weird that I imagine the dragons with pterosaur wings(contrary to what the cover art depicts), Rohan sounds like Brian Bloom and Sioned sounds like Mae Whitman?

One wonderful look at amazing art of prehistoric creatures. Though the ones with Cenozoic creatures age way better scientifically speaking.
