About this listen

In the aftermath of war, dragon riders walk alone.

A time has come when the Dragon Queen must destroy Cimeren in order to create something new. The Dragon Queen of Murgare barrels toward the lone outpost of Nevergrace, riding her infamous shadow dragon and destroyer of kingdoms. She seeks retribution for her murdered king.

At Nevergrace, Cyran Orendain encounters a snarky forest dragon named Eidelmere who is bitter and resentful, having seen many centuries of battle and betrayals. Cyran forges an unlikely bond with the creature, which hurls him down a path he never could have imagined. He will wield magic, lance, and bow, and become a rider and ally to Eidelmere.

Cyran's sister, Jaslin, must learn of the old guard and the many breeds of dragons, of their magic, and discover a mysterious power she can wield and use to lead her people.

Pravon the Dragon Thief roams the lands stealing these creatures and performing deeds under blood contract to a concealed employer. In the beginning, his objectives are obscure, but the closer he comes to the war, the more someone's darker intentions are brought to light.

For in the end, it will take strategizing with many unique dragons, magic, and forging bonds with the creatures.

One side will bleed and one will fall.

But little do they understand each other.

And either the queen or the knight will rise from the ashes of dragon fire.

it's worth a listen and I enjoyed listening to it. Net the best but still worth a listen.

A fun dragon story

This voice actor has an alluring style and performs some amazing character voices.

Dragons fighting with archers and bolts where you can feel what it would be like and experience the sensation. I loved all the main characters each in their own good or evil ways. Many twists will unfold but I don't want to include spoilers. Lots of intrigue with superb writing of dragons and battles and magic and deception. It gets bloody sometimes but nothing spicy.

It reminded me of Lord of the Rings, Stormlight archives, A Game of Thrones, and The Wheel of Time series.

A thrilling new epic fantasy adventure

The most exhilarating and unique dragon story I've read. What cool concepts. I've heard this is being made into a video game.

The world building in this dark epic fantasy tale is phenomenal. Great characters and insane plotting with twists you won't see coming. Original ideas and dragons. Not the same old same old epic fantasy tale, although there are throw backs to Lord of the Rings, A Game of Thrones, and Eragon, but with new takes on each.

The story starts without tons of action, if you only like to listen to fantasy fighting tales, but it is captivating and delightful with the dragons, characters, and world building. Then when the action ramps up, it doesn't let go, like edge of your seat type of stuff.

The performance by the narrator is above and beyond. His voice draws you in and wraps you up so you can't turn it off. The voices he does are also top notch.



An enthralling dark and imaginative fantasy world

I read the kindle version of this book after it came out last year and loved it, it was one of the best fantasy stories I’ve read in quite some time. I don’t listen to audiobooks much at all but figured I’d give this one a shot as I enjoyed the book so much. And it’s fantastic! The voice actor does an amazing job and really brings a great story to life. I strongly recommend giving this a try.

Great story and narration

Not quite sure what to say about this one feels like it skipped the editing step and narrator mispronounces names frequently enough that sometimes I’m not quite sure who’s talking. Between those two factors feels very chaotic and confusing. Having read the wheel of time several times over the last 20 years both in book and audio book form this was much harder to follow with less characters.

Confusing chaotic

The baseline of the story is good, but there is too much going on. I feel in a rush to have so much in the story there are sections that aren’t explained or that are gloss over. One element will be introduced to the story in one chapter just to be completely disregarded and not brought up anymore in the book.

Confusing
