On a cold Sunday evening in early 1957, Sarah Dewhurst waited with her father in the parking lot of the Chevron gas station for the dragon he’d hired to help on the farm… Sarah Dewhurst and her father, outcasts in their little town of Frome, Washington, are forced to hire a dragon to work their farm, something only the poorest of the poor ever have to resort to. The dragon, Kazimir, has more to him than meets the eye, though. Sarah can’t help but be curious about him, an animal who supposedly doesn’t have a soul but who is seemingly intent on keeping her safe. Because the dragon knows something she doesn’t. He has arrived at the farm with a prophecy on his mind. A prophecy that involves a deadly assassin, a cult of dragon worshippers, two FBI agents in hot pursuit—and somehow, Sarah Dewhurst herself.

Dragon book! And holy shit that is a hell of a book, that was so much and awesome. I want more from this world, but I feel like it was finished so well in this one.
I really loved this! I couldn't stop reading it. The characters were so complex and fully realized. The plot was brilliant and unpredictable. I was particularly impressed with the way it handled the major plot point in the middle. A change that significant can be hard to pull off, but this book did without losing momentum.
As a book about racism, inequality, prejudice, and police brutality it struck as particularly powerful in this current moment.
Fully recommend
There was a lot going on with the setting and fantasy combination. A bit too much for me and a bit too all over the place.
