About this listen

Cameron wants to make one thing clear: He didn't come into the festival to find a dragon mate.

Germany is supposed to be an escape. With a new mechanical engineering degree, a new job looming, and a whole life planned out that isn’t his, Germany seems like the best place for Cameron find himself. So how does he end up discovering his lost magic heritage, running from bad guys with a secret agenda, and being adopted by the not-so-extinct Fire Dragon clan?

He blames tall, dark, and sexy Alric, king of the Fire Dragons: his fated mate. Because of course he is, and mates are meant to take the blame, right? It may take a hot second, but as Cameron learns more about the scarred Alric and the life he’s landed in, he realizes that perhaps this is where he’s meant to be - magic, mates, kidnapping, and all.

Turns out Germany isn't an escape...it's his awakening.

I loved the story (having already read the book) and I always love Joel’s narration. The only thing that was hard for me with this one was Cameron was Korean/American and Alaric was German. I thought his accents for them were good it was just the remainder of the story he was using a British accent.

Only one small issue

I was hooked from the first word. This is a fantastic story about dragons and mages that have survived over 500 years after The Dragon Wars decimated their kind and sent any surviving mage families into hiding. King Alric had practically given up hope of ever finding a mage mate of his own. Cameron is vacationing in a small German town, enjoying a dragon festival, when all of a sudden he is being told he is a mage. Cameron's grandma has always told him and his twin sister that there was magic in their blood, but he never thought it could be true. This information sends Cameron into a tailspin as he gets thrust into war that everyone thought ended 500 years ago. The Jaeggi, the mage clan responsible for The Dragon Wars, have apparently survived and are causing trouble for King Alric and his dragon family. The plot was fast paced and full of action, humor, and an oblivious king who doesn't realize he's being flirted with. The world building and characters are amazing. I loved this book and am looking forward to listening to the rest of the series. Joel Leslie did a great job voicing these characters. I really enjoyed his accents.

Fantastic!

Ive read all the books and was super excited to hear that the audio was coming out. It's an interesting take on dragons and mages and had a little bit of everything in it.

I was concerned that I didn't know the narrator until I realized that Joel Leslie and Joel Fromkin are the same person. Joel is always a fabulous narrator and he does this well too. Especially considering the amount of different accents there are. English, British, German and Asian. Add in the amount of characters there are and it's a lot of voices and accents, but I could tell who each was easily.

Awesome series
