Dragon Horn

Bloodline Awakened Supernatural Thriller, Book 1

De: J.P. Rice

Narrado por: Benjamin Allen

Dragons invade Pittsburgh.

Mike Merlino serves as the magical guardian of the city and vows to solve the problem.

He discovers only one option that will work. Find the illustrious Dragon Horn. The mystical musical instrument can summon the noble dragons he needs to save the city.

But there's a problem.

Mike must journey to a murderous faerie netherworld to uncover the horn that’s been buried for 500 years.

Will he die like the thousands who have failed on the quest, or will Mike unearth the elusive instrument and use it to reclaim his city?

If you enjoy snarky urban fantasy by masters such as Shayne Silvers, Jim Butcher, and Orlando A. Sanchez, you’ll have a great time with this adventure.

This audiobook includes unique characters, like a vegetarian Sphinx, an ornery faun, a rhyming red cap, dullahans, and a wingless pixie.

5 stars all around

I liked the books and the performance added to it so 5 stars all around.

Good story

Great book full of excitement, magic, and adventure. Add in a hero who is flawed, but still relatable and you get a really good book. The narration is good and fits the story.

Very good

This was a very good audiobook. The narrator does a great job of bringing each character to life

very fun...

could use a little variety in the spells, but the story was pretty fun and so were the characters

Great character arc

I like the way the author shows character growth in this story. With each book the author shows the main character with a little more growth. The author shows how the hero becomes a hero, in every since of the word, a little at a time with each book. the narrative of this story gave me chills as the written words become alive with the story telling.

Secondary characters make this book more bearable

I was told that this was the first book in the series by the author and I really should have double checked because it’s actually the middle of the series. As soon as I started this book, there was a dragon invasion happening and I was extremely lost as to why there was an invasion and who the characters were. I personally wasn’t too fond of the main character, Mike, because of his personality, drunkenness, and inability to take responsibility for his actions. I mainly stuck the story out because despite him, the secondary characters made it worth it and I wanted to see where the ending brought them.
Benjamin did an okay job with this narration. I feel like he took too many pauses between sentences and it felt more like a reading than a performance. I did appreciate that he gave each character different voices and personality.

Burn saves it...

I struggled through this one, due to the narrator. in all honesty, I went and grabbed the KU copy to finish the story. I did like the plot, although the main character is really immature. If it weren't for Burn, I don't know if I would have liked it. She seems to bring about some growth in Mike by the end of the book. I'll have to read the next one to see if that promise holds true.

I think there must be a prequel though. there were several references to Mike and Alayna in the past, without a lot of detail (Alayna saved my life, etc).

If Burn isn't in the next books, I hope she gets her own series.

very good

Loved it !! this story. the narrator is so fantastic it's like your really there!! good overall

Excellent!

I love the way the author brings us this story, in the world of the scarlet dragon series. It gives us a different view of the world. Very well done! If you haven’t heard the Scarlet dragon series, start there and enjoy the whole story from multiple angles!

I have received a free copy of this book in exchange for an unbiased review.

Dragons, Demons, & Fea Oh MY!!

This book is set in the same world as The Scarlet Dragon Series. It focuses on Mike Merlino. One of my favorite things after having read that series is seeing some of the other sides of the story. it is awesome getting more than one point of view of the world.

Mike is such a great male hero, he is not perfect and he tries to recognize his flaws while working on his strengths. The secondary characters Eleina & Bern (excuse the spelling as I listened) are very nicely incorporated into the narrative.

I liked the fact that it was quite high action and hard tot put down because I felt I would miss something.

I am quite excited for book 2!!
