In the Labyrinth of Drakes

A Memoir by Lady Trent

De: Marie Brennan

Narrado por: Kate Reading

In the Labyrinth of Drakes: the thrilling new audiobook in the acclaimed fantasy series from Marie Brennan, as the glamorous Lady Trent takes her adventurous explorations to the deserts of Akhia.

Even those who take no interest in the field of dragon naturalism have heard of Lady Trent's expedition to the inhospitable deserts of Akhia. Her discoveries there are the stuff of romantic legend, catapulting her from scholarly obscurity to worldwide fame. The details of her personal life during that time are hardly less private, having provided fodder for gossips in several countries.

As is so often the case in the career of this illustrious woman, the public story is far from complete. In this, the fourth volume of her memoirs, Lady Trent relates how she acquired her position with the Royal Scirling Army; how foreign saboteurs imperiled both her work and her well-being; and how her determined pursuit of knowledge took her into the deepest reaches of the Labyrinth of Drakes, where the chance action of a dragon set the stage for her greatest achievement yet.

Can’t stop listening

I am hooked. I just finished In the Labyrinth of Drakes after I had also gone quickly and anxiously through the previous books in this series. I am entertained am thoroughly impressed with the intellect and planning and craftiness by which Ms. Brennan has created these stories. I cannot wait to start Book 5.
Ms. Reading is amazing in her performance and ability to voice the characters with such distinct individuality. Bravo!

worth it to finish the series only

The last book in the series is PHENOMENAL, and this book is well worth reading to get to it, but this is by a long shot my least favorite of the series.

Slight spoilers ahead. Nothing specific, just on the direction of the story.

No animal lover can read through this without severe discomfort. The fact is, once a government finds an animal to be a resource, that animal will be mistreated to the max. Not Lady Trent's fault, but hard to choke through in parts.

At least Lady Trent had some nice personal moments in the story to balance the horror to the dragons.

Exciting

It was intriguing and exciting from the start to the end. I loved listening to it.

Might be my favorite in the series

I love this series. I've listened to it 3 times? 4? I'll listen again. The narrator is brilliant, perfect for the character.

if you've read this far you'll love the whole series. if you're starting here, well, you'll still love the whole series.

Fascinating take on Archeology & Dragons!

I'm loving this series; both in story, and performance. I'm looking forward to the next (and concluding) novel eagerly!
