About this listen

The Witch's Reign...a land of unnatural hellish cold ruled over by the Ice Witch herself, who is in turn guarded by three creatures - Wolf, Bear, and Raven. Those lovely beasts derive their power directly from their mistress and just happen to kill any who cross their paths. To get there, you first must pass through the Dragon's Ground. Full of, you guessed it, dragons who for the record, also do not like trespassers.

Sounds like a fun place to go, doesn't it?

Yeah, not so much.

You see the thing is my best friend, Darcy was sent with a team into the Witch's Reign to recover a powerful jewel that belongs to our mentor, and they are long overdue to come back.

That leaves me, Zamira "Reckless" Wilson to go after my friend because no one else will.

Somehow, I get saddled with a human - a male no less! - tagging along for the ride. A human that is as weak and useless as my shifting abilities.

Throw in a weapon that might be trying to kill me, and a small dragon that has a penchant for Shakespearean insults, and you've got my life in a nutshell.

May the sands of the desert swallow me whole because this is going to be a friggin bumpy ride.

Great book with lots of adventure!

Zam, Maks, and Lila are some of my favorite characters. I love the Shakespearen insults! This book is a nonstop adventure. I love seeing how each series connects in some way. Such an awesome story that you can't help loving the characters!

Lauren Fortgang is an amazing narrator and I love listening to her.

Young, Strong Fantasy

Zam is a strong female lead. i was already a fan of both the author and narratrix. This series is a multi-layered story that unravels a little at a time, just giving away enough to make the plotline work. It's almost pure Fantasy, but there is enough real-world subject matter to make it Urban Fantasy. By the time i got to the end of this book, i was hooked.

Great new series!

I love this audiobook series!! Lauren Fortgang does a fabulous job narrating this series. She’s a fabulous narrator that and allows the listener to get lost in the world that the author had created. Great world building!! Zam is the main character who keeps finding herself in trouble. Full of action and fast paced! Absolutely love it!! Discover new places with just one click.

Lila is my hero

This is just a great start into a promising series, with so many surprises and the development of a deep friendship ahead. I love Zam and her travel companions, how they overcome all those obstacles to reach a common goal. What a team. I have a feeling they will be back and stronger than before. Great story and awesome narration! Off to the next to be enchanted by the desert cursed series over and over again!

Kudos to Sharon Mayer and Lauren Fortgang

Performance was outstanding. Characters were clearly identifiable by changes in the narrator's voice, speed of talking, and turn of phrase.
Captivating story but there wasn't a clear ending to this first book in the series. That said, I plan to read the next book in the series.

great book, excited to start the next

I thought this book was great and am excited about starting the next book. I had this book saved for quite a while and after starting it wondered why I hadn't started it sooner.
