Upon Dragon’s Breath Trilogy By Ava Richardson/Replaced Parts By Stephanie Hansen

Rating: WARTY!

"Saffron was exiled from Torvald because of her ability to communicate with dragons. When she joins forces with reclusive young noble Bower, can they face the evil magic that ruined their kingdom?" Who cares when it's yet another in a long line of female-penned stories that says a woman is useless unless paired with a man to validate and protect her?

PAIRED WITH

"In a dystopian 22nd century, Sierra spends her days rescuing animals from laboratories - but when she finds out where her long-missing father is imprisoned, she enlists her friends for a secret rescue mission to the planet Vortex." How is this any different from the one above? The blurb says, "her friends," but the cover shows the alt-right 'one woman and one man' because you just know a woman is usless without one, right? Ri-ight! Barf.
