Publisher's summary

Mistress of Dragons is the first volume in an epic fantasy trilogy entitled The Dragonvald. Here is a world where men and dragons coexist amid political intrigue and dark magic, where the uneasy balance of power between the two is on the verge of becoming undone, threatening to unleash waves of destruction that will pit humans against humans as well as dragons against men for the domination of the world. Humanity's very survival is at risk.

The power to hold the chaos at bay, the terrible secret that maintains the balance, rests in the hands of a new and inexperienced Mistress of Dragons.

Don't miss the next book in the Dragonvarld Trilogy The Dragon's Son.

Loved this book now want the next one

This book introduced Dragons and how they dealt with humans in a new light and I loved it. I listened to this book on a long drive and the drive ended much too soon as I still had a couple of hours left on the book, wanted to just sit in my car and listen to the rest. Audible needs to get more of Weis's books recorded.

Awesome Story line.

The story line to this adventure marches continuously on. it has several twists and turns that you wont have any idea until the end of the 3rd book.
I highly reccomend that you listen to all three of the books.
the narration is great.

Dragons and a sexually confused maiden

I am new to fantasy fiction, but I suspect I am fast becoming hooked on it. Some of the characters in this tale are a bit shallow but the story is intriguing ? dragons, danger, and a sexually confused maiden (Weis goes out on a limb, but not too far). The writing is lyrical and the narration is superb. I anxiously await the sequel.

Pretty Good

Any additional comments?

I bought this book because I am a long time fan of the original Dragon Lance Chronicles. I thought the book was good and original, but if I had to pick a flaw, I would say it was a tad heavy on the drama. I like drama, just not much into the romantic parts of it.

Good; bear in mind is for adults

The first one of this author I read; liked it a lot. When I got it I thought it was ok for all ages. For you who think the same and want to pass it along children I recommend you to hear it first. If you are ok with the description of two women in love and their romance, pass it along to younger ones. Otherwise just wait until you are comfortable explaining it if they asked you how that works...

Mistress of Dragons

The Mistress of Dragons is fun, interesting, dramatic and held my attention and challenged my imagination. I am looking forward to the next of the trilogy.
