Story
Steve doesn’t know who he is. Or who he was. He doesn’t know anything, actually. Not even where he is. Other than a vast open field of dirt. All Steve knows is that he’s apparently supposed to build a farm. At least that’s his only workable assumption. Given the number of farm-tools left to him. That and the massive number of sacks full of seeds. Unfortunately, this isn’t even the strangest part of this new life. Hidden inside the farm tools, Steve finds messages. Messages that appear in floating windows in front of him.

Ugh, this book was horrible. Really bad. I would return it if I could. The way the main character treats women is cringe.

I loved this book. The only bad thing is that #2 isn’t out yet. Great storytelling

Story
Holt Cook was never meant to be a dragon rider. He has always served the Order Hall of the Crag dutifully, keeping their kitchen pots clean. Until he discovers a dark secret: dragons do not tolerate weakness among their kin, killing the young they deem flawed. Moved by pity, Holt defies the Order, rescues a doomed egg and vows to protect the blind dragon within.

A new take on dragon fantasy
Reviewed: 11-18-20
This book is a must if you are into fantasy with dragons. An added bonus, the narrator was perfect for this title. I can't wait for the next one. As for the story, the dragons were not just an afterthought, they are integral to the story. Hopefully this will result in an amazing series like Pern.

Story
Lavan Chitward is a very unhappy young man; pulled away from his country home by his parents' ambitions and resettled in the big city of Haven, he is desperately lonely, bullied and beaten at school, ignored by his parents. It is not surprising that he falls ill - but his illness is the first manifestation of a terrible power, the Gift of the Firestorm, a power which can and does kill. If controlled, the Gift of the Firestorm can save Valdemar, but if it is uncontrolled, it will destroy the country - and him.

Great listen! Horrid cover art
Reviewed: 01-27-20
Don't let the cover art put you off. The narrator does a great job, though the female impersonations are amusing. Mercedes Lackey wrote a great story.
The cover does not do this wonderful story justice. For starters, heralds wear white, not red. It looks like the man is leaning against something, but nothing is there. The design is just bad. The companion is well done, but for the rest... it missed the mark. It would have looked a ton better if they kept the original cover art.
