A mysterious warlock. A ruthless band of wyvern poachers. A marriage neither of them wants.

Tsar Kirill’s only daughter is ailing. Poachers and robbers plague his kingdom. He doesn’t want a wife. Especially not that one.

Tsarevna Yuliana has a home, already. She doesn’t want to leave everything she’s known and the seaside that she grew up by to start a new life in a strange land. Especially not with him.

But Tsar Fyodor, his ally and her father, has other plans. He wants to forge an empire. And empire building by marriage is so much less taxing than empire building by war. Or so he thinks.

First at odds, Yuliana and Kirill unite to outwit Fyodor and save themselves from his machinations. But as a mysterious sorcerer and a dangerous band of wyvern poachers threaten the future of both kingdoms, the two must risk everything - including their hearts - to save the hard-won peace.

A humorous fantasy novel, full of lovable characters, dangerous villains, and laugh-out-loud moments.

Firebird's Lair (The Dragonland Saga Book 1), my fourteenth read from prolific author Rachel Ford and the first book in her Dragonand Saga series. No matter the genre a Rachel Ford book can be counted on to be entertaining & enjoyable. I look forward to the next book in the series, Kraken's Depths (The Dragonland Saga #2). "I received an Audible review copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review." (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

This story had a bit too much of pithy language & salacious thoughts. Otherwise it was a good tale. I liked the adventure and the twists and unexpected directions that the story took! Very nice world building and character arcs!

More Slice of Life than drama, could have been a novella. room for more Intrigue that didn't happen. A number of lost opportunities because the world building has promise. But , except for a couple of scenes, it won't disturb most sensitive readers.

too long

I was entertained by this story, but it took me a while to like it. I thought the first part of the story dragged, but once the action heated up, the story got better. I liked Tsar Kirill and Tsarevna Yuliana. I enjoyed their meandering path to love. I wasn't impressed with Blazej Fiser's narration. I thought his voice was fine and his diction clear; however, there were long passages where his performance lacked expressiveness. I was given a copy of the audiobook through StoryOrigin. I volunteered, without financial gain, to leave this review which included my honest opinions regarding this story.

A Fine Fantasy

I really like the book. It portrays the characters with all their peculiarities and makes the reader/listener feel like they are part of the story. I liked the unexpected twists and turns of the story, the suspense right up to the end.
The narrator did a good job, although it took a long time between the end of one chapter and the beginning of the next.

Listen to your heart!
