About this listen
Kingdoms burn. Heroes soar.
At the decimated outpost of Nevergrace, Cyran Orendain and his companions stand watch. They search for the Dragon Queen's remains while awaiting the full onslaught of Murgare's retaliation. But some of their own turn against them, and a village is ravaged by whatever lurks in the woods.
With the young lady of the Never by her side, Cyran's sister Jaslin arrives at the king's city of Galvenstone to answer a summons. She will find the answers to the queen's murder and the darkness lurking beneath the streets, no matter what—or who—stands in her way.
Meanwhile, Pravon the dragon thief follows the unpredictable dragon assassin across the lands of Cimeren, hunting down emissaries who seek to bring peace to the kingdoms. For only one path can stop the coming war, and they will ensure this path is never found.
Only those at Nevergrace sense the coming dangers—that which stalks the far side of the Lake on Fire and that which prowls within the forest.
The growing shadows will consume all of the kingdoms and cover the lands in blood and dragon fire.

Story
All in Voramis know the legend of the Hunter. Relentless. Immortal. Death walking. The greatest assassin who ever lived. Pay the master killer his due and the Hunter will execute any target, carry out any contract, no matter how impossible. But when the Bloody Hand crime syndicate harms the innocents under his protection, they foolishly make an enemy of the one man they can't afford to anger. The price of the Hunter's vengeance is high-paid in blood and eternal damnation. Not even an army of crooks, cutthroats, and demonic creatures of nightmare can stand in his way.

But when a group of thugs steal his mother’s necklace, the only link he has to his murdered parents, Aaron decides that sometimes gold isn’t enough - sometimes, blood is the only payment worth taking.

All of the incredibly powerful high mages died out centuries ago. Nobody expected one to return. I was just a simple blacksmith apprentice when a visit by the mages of Essalin confirmed what I’d long suspected—I could touch the aether. Destined to be a mage, I’m plucked from my village alongside a feisty redhead so we could journey to the fabled city of the high mages to learn how to control and wield the aether. The road there isn’t going to be easy though.

Minalan gave up a promising career as a professional warmage to live the quiet life of a village spellmonger in the remote mountain valley of Boval. It was a peaceful, beautiful little fief, far from the dangerous feudal petty squabbles of the Five Duchies, on the world of Callidore. There were cows. Lots of cows. And cheese. For six months things went well: He found a quaint little shop, he befriended the local lord, the village folk loved him, he found a sharp young apprentice to help out, and, best yet, he met a comely young widow with the prettiest eyes.

Great world, tough performance, medium characters

Action, magic, thieves, assassins, dragons, epic battles, dragon archers, jousts, mystery, and answers. All the questions you had in book 1 are answered here, and those answers will probably shock you no matter what you were thinking or thought you were expecting for this story. The main character Cyran does not just stay as a same type of dragon guard, he progresses into a new breed, lifting the action to new heights. I can't wait to see where he goes from here. Jaslin and Sirra also grow and adapt, and sides shift, with hints of more progression fantasy to come.
One of the great epic fantasies I've experienced.
A new imagining of dragons!
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Amazing Sequel
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
The characters are deep and complex, the world building absolutely mesmerizing and real and original, the plot full of twists I haven't read the likes of since A Game of Thrones, the dragons unlike any I've encountered, as well as how they are used in war.
The multiple magic systems are awesome! Knights and archers and warriors and viking-like barbarians, and dragon thieves and assassins? What else could you ask for?
This one will keep you on the edge of your seat the entire time without the world building needed to set up the story in the first installment. Amazing performance as well. Tip my hat to Ben Farrow.
A must read or listen for any avid fantasy buff. This one will be on the big lists soon, probably bumped up once the video game comes out.
MY FAVORITE DRAGON FANTASY!!!
