The normal world is an illusion.
Separated from other realms by a thin layer of powerful magic, humans are protected from the fae and dragons, the ghosts and warlocks, and an unfurling evil.
Khali Elliot is a princess —of sorts. She wasn’t born royal and yet she’s destined to become queen. As a Dragon Blessed with four elements running through her blood, her future lineage has already been … four elements running through her blood, her future lineage has already been claimed by the Brightcaster’ throne. She will marry one of the princes. She won’t get to choose which one. She will be obedient.
Until she’s not.
Hazel Forrester sees dead people. Her life is pretty much a bad made-for-tv special where being the haunted girl isn’t a gift, but a curse. Going away to college in a small town where nobody knows her seems to be a solid plan. That is until she meets Dean Ashton, the infuriating boy with fire in his eyes and far too many questions. She will ignore him. She will act normal.
Until she can’t.
Two vastly different realms. Two vastly different girls.
But the realms are bleeding together and the girls are linked. Bound. Spelled.
And little do they know, one can’t survive without the other.

Dragon shifters, magic, & mediums, oh my!
Brilliant! Two stories in one! Weaving urban & medieval worlds, each a different story complete with their own strong heroines, and craftily drawn together, creating a magnetic read! I struggled to put it down, wanting to know what happens next. I really need to know more about what happens to these girls, the brothers, and more about a certain feline fae!
I was gifted with this as a prize from the author, publisher, or assistant, and chose to leave a review.
Nina Walker expertly weaves a story rich in paranormal intrigue with enough drama to keep you rapidly turning the pages. This story depicting elemental dragons is entirely original, with Walker taking great care to spin a tale unlike others in the genre. I am only left wanting more.
This is the first book I’ve read by this author and all I can say is WOW! It was brilliant. She has woven different realms that bleed into one another wonderfully. The characters are intriguing and keep you wanting more. She has a vast variety over paranormal creatures thrown in to make it even more interesting. Drama that keeps you turning the pages. This story was so beautifully written that it is so easy to get sucked into it. I honestly can’t wait to read book 2.
I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review. This in no way has shaped my thoughts on the book.
Oh wow! I’m totally floored by the richness of this story! Different, unique and fun!
The MC characters are fantastic and well written, the storyline is so good, that I was sucked into the book from the very beginning and the world building, Wow, just WOW! I was swept away! Definitely looking forward to reading the next book!
“Separated from other realms by a thin layer of powerful magic, humans are protected from the fae and dragons, the ghosts and warlocks, and an unfurling evil.“
This story is amazing, I read the above blurb and thought I wanna read that and boy am I glad I did! Two different storylines that came together and blended really well with great characters in a fantasy world built by this author that is different and exciting and filled with danger, mystery and romance and I hope book 2 is every bit as good as this one!
I really enjoyed this book because the characters are so well developed. They are strong, courageous, funny and unique. There are several twists and turns in this book. I am looking forward to book number two!
Crown of Dragons is my first book my Nina Walker and now I’m definitely curious about her other work. If you’re looking for a new fantasy series to start and love dragons and other mythical creatures, this book is definitely for you.
I loved that this book was seperated into two timelines with our two main characters. A perfect mix of the modern day world and a brand new fantasy world. Hazel is a 17 year old girl just trying to live a normal life. Well, as normal as she can be while seeing dead people. Khali is also a 17 year old girl, but she is also a dragon and can work with all the elements. Even those these two live seperate lives that are so different, there are so many similarities. They’re both strong, stubborn and have a really big heart.
Nina Walker starts are characters off seperately, but I loved how their worlds slowly started merging in different ways. This felt natural and seemed like the next step in many ways. We learn a lot about the world they’re in. I have to say I wish we would’ve gotten just a bit more history. While I love discovering everything as it comes (like Crown of Dragons does really well), I think a little more background information would’ve been helpful. A lot happens in the 290 pages of Crown of Dragons.
I don’t want to give away too much about this story, because this is the type of series you need to discover as you read. I can tell you besides an amazing world and characters, you can look forward to humor, lots of adventure and a lot of fun references to our modern day world. On top of that I loved that this author wasn’t afraid to make this book a bit dark at times. It’s not always happily ever after and a few moments in this book really prove that. I can’t wait to see what happens in the next book, because that ending definitely left me wanting more!
This is a great read. Its a fast paced and action packed read. That is a real page turner. If your a lover of Magic and Dragons, and the Supernatural. This read is definitely the read for you. The World building is great and the Scenes are very well written. The Author has done an incredible job. A definite must read.

I loved this book! It was a fun read! I enjoyed this world that the author created. And I really loved the characters. This story was adventurous and unique. And I can’t wait to read more!
Fantastic start of a new series!!!
Love, love, love this book… It’s so different and original… amazing world building and story line, wonderful characters… Love Hazel, Dean and Khali, I think they’re going to be an awesome team… Love how the story is told, interconnecting the chapters between both realms… Now that Khali is here, what they’re going to do?, how this will affect the dynamic between Hazel and Dean?… Is Khali still in love with him?… How about the Occultist and that Reaper?, what’s their final goal?… OMG, so many questions, I need the next book NOW!!!
