Title: If you loved Dragronsbane, this will be a brutal letdown
Product review: This book ends on a such note of emotional and personal loss and desolation that my first thought was to hope Ms. Hambly's personal life has not taken a turn for the worse. John and Jenny, in Dragonsbane, had one of the best relationships of any literary couple. They were obviously and deeply in love and Ms. Hambly showed that in a skilled and detailed way that always made me want to meet the "John" in her life. At the end of Dragonshadow the relationship is in ruins and there seems little hope for them. Perhaps the promised sequel will salvage something from the wreckage. Dragonshadow, well-written though it is, seems a cruel thing to do to loyal readers in the name of art.
