About this listen
When a dragon finds an assassin sneaking into his lair, he tells her of his life's work and his soon to be final chapter.
–--
For the past thousand years, the dragon Vakandi has watched the people of Vakfored grow from a wandering band of refugees to a glorious city of art and magic. Under his protection, the city has survived monsters, floods, and wars all without building an army, dam, or even a wall. But time changes everything and now the citizens of his beloved city want him dead. Vakandi spends his last day telling his assassin why he loves them, and why it's his time to die.
---
Listeners who love dragons will get their fill with the most lovable dragon. A quick standalone fantasy listen that will entertain those who love a bit of soup with their story.

"I'm happy I found this. Best short story I've read in a while. Well done."—Astrowoud
"Vakandi has been added to my list of favorite dragons. The Sunset Sovereign is a great book for fans of subverted tropes and complex characters."—Witty & Sarcastic Bookclub
"It had a cozy and slice of life feel at times and then bam - epic action! It was so good and the dragon had the perfect voice for the stories it told."—P.M Hammond

Story
At six years old, Clara met fire and shadow... Her parents were murdered, her home burned to the ground, and her past erased. She grew up believing she was a delusional orphan, haunted by fragments of memories that made no sense. The only clue was her mother’s jade necklace—a relic as mysterious as it was beautiful. Now, as a pre-med student, she lives a so-called normal life. But when a stranger attacks and a surge of power explodes from within, everything changes. Her memories are real, the man who hunted her is back, and she is far from safe. As Clara’s abilities grow, so do the ...

During his nearly fifteen-year reign of terror, Ronald Lloyd Bailey’s depraved obsession with sexual sadism held communities across southeast Michigan in a shroud of fear.

Some people get meet-cutes. I get a meet-crash. When Vincent Forde rear-ends my car, I expect an apology—instead he tosses me a scowl that could melt steel and acts like I’m the problem. Charming, right?

Story
After I returned to my small hometown six months ago to attend my estranged grandmother's funeral, I swore I would never go back. That is, until my grandmother's lawyer calls me up. If I don't return to Harmony Island and fulfill my grandmother's stipulations, the generationally owned family inn will be turned over to the state and sold off to the highest bidder—my grandmother's rival and mother to the man who broke my heart, Missy Willis. I'm not sure I'm strong enough to return home, but I also know, I can't let Miss Willis win.

The narrator did a great job as well. Some might find him a bit intense at certain parts, but such is the tone of a dragon I guess? I would gladly listen to other stories told by this narrator.
Final thoughts, but I hope the author continues writing and building their own worlds without too many of the common fantasy elements that are found in other texts. We had a magical never-ending bag, healing elixirs, life/death magic, orcs, dwarves, limited use magical shield, and all the other common fantasy stuff. None of them were too important to the story, and honestly not a big deal, but it would be interesting to see the author come up with their own unique elements to build their world.

Without spoiling anything, The story tackles a conflict of perspectives while masterfully building upon it's fantasy world.
My one complaint is that I couldn't just put it on in the background. Believe me I tried, and failed.
Everytime I'd go to fold laundry or perform some sort of task I'd instead find myself several chapters later having realized that I didn't get a thing done because that's how well written and narrated the story is.
It's great for road trips! 10/10 would listen to over and over again!
