London, the Empire of Albion. The Great Dragons of old are long-gone. Now the world is governed by the science of Celestial Physicists, and everyone's life is foretold by the track on their wrist.

When 13-year-old Paisley discovers from her track that she is destined to die, the race is on to protect her dragon-touched brother and find her missing mother. But an ancient power stalks the sewers of London, and the Dark Dragon is rising, intent on restoring the Great Dragons and destroying Paisley's family and her world forever.

In a world where science rules and dragons fear to tread, Paisley must trust her instincts and forge new friends, as she attempts to outrun fate itself.

Before this book I had never heard of this author. I found myself between a book just finished, and a book I had been anticipating coming up in my pre-orders. Looking for something not too long in length, I found this book by browsing books read by narrator Nicola Barber whom I’ve listened to and enjoyed previously.

In all honesty, I didn’t expect much from this book. I guessed this would be a YA or Romantacy that with Barber’s narration would get me through to the next book. I ended up surprised, and found myself actually enjoying this book quite a bit. While there is some YA elements to this book like a teenage main character, and overall lack of R rated dialogue, I found the story to be a quite interesting fantasy novel with elements of sci-fi set in a dystopian type setting. The plot and world building were well done, and the characters likable.

I mentioned I had previously listened to narrator Nicole Barber and had sought out the book due to her excellent work. She doesn’t disappoint here.

Overall, a nice find of a book I probably wouldn’t have normally picked up. Definitely worth a credit. I’m planning on moving on to the next book in the series after reading the pre-order book I mentioned at the beginning.

Better than anticipated.
