"So it's been a very long time since I've read these books but as far as I can remember I enjoyed them...however, I'm not sure if I'd given them four stars if I were to read them today."
"One of the better books of this series. It gave much more informaiton onteh Elves and their history. This series is picking up fo rme a bit, I was beginning to get bored after the last book."
"In the fantasy genre there are two types of elves.
The first type are short, tend to wear lederhosen, love to sing songs as they hang around workshops or gardens, are very loyal and diligent, and often have an amusing accent and amusingly odd shaped noses.
The second type are tall, thin, pale, and gorgeous, well dressed, good archers, very good at magic, and very well assured of their high ranking social status.
The Halfblood chronicles take the second type of elves to a whole new level. In this series elves rule a Middle Earth type setting. Elves are the masters, humans are the slaves, and intelligent, magic welding, talking dragon live in secret, worried about exposing themselves to the magic the elven kind weld.
For the most part the elves treat humans as animals, but they also like to make harems of the prettiest humans. They try and regulate human breeding, because a human with human magic combined with an elf with elven magic results not in a doubling, but a squaring of magic, but occasionally a half-breed escapes their purges. The pot revolves around a half elven / half human who as born and managed to elude death. She was raised in secret by the dragons, and wrecks havoc on the elves when she comes of age.
A fun read for when your in the mood for some trashy fantasy."
