Drake Hall

The Secrets of Ormdale, Book 2

De: Christina Baehr

Narrado por: Elizabeth Knowelden

Edith's ancient home is full of secrets . . . and dragons are the least of them.

As the new dragon keeper in the hidden valley of Ormdale, Edith expects her first dragon mating season to involve venomous bites and amorous wyverns.

She doesn't expect to find herself growing closer to an inconveniently appealing suitor next door, or to stumble upon a dragon poacher lurking in the outbuildings, or to uncover a family scandal in the Abbey.

Fortunately, Edith has a mentor to help her sort things out, the spellbinding Helena Drake of Drake Hall. Or does Helena harbor secrets of her own?

For Edith, the dragons were always going to be the easy part.

Drake Hall, Book 2 of The Secrets of Ormdale, takes Edith deeper into the cozy gothic world of Yorkshire dragons and the mysterious families who guard them.

Loved it!

The narrator is amazing! I love the story, characters, and writing. I wish there was a bit less lecturing about ills in society. I’m on the same page as the author on them, but it just feels a bit like I’m getting a lecture constantly and it slows down the story.

Wonderful series.

My new favorite series. Second book. Lovely writing and story and narration. what is not to like about dragon keepers in 20th century England. Highly recommended.

Wonderful captivating inspired novel

Drake Hall, The Secrets of Ormdale is a great, entertaining and captivating book with laughs and tears that are inspired. The performance is excellent. It is a must listen audible book. It will bless you.

So fun!

This is a delightful series, and I can’t wait to listen to the next book!

Super fun story and lovely characters

So far this series is terrific. The plot is a pleasure and I enjoy the characters and how they interact with one another. . I can’t wait for the next book!

Delightful

I love this series! I titled the review as I did because everything about it fills me with delight! The story, the characters, the relationships, the humour, the clever literary references, and the superb performance Elizabeth Knowelden. This is book 2 in the series and I can’t wait for all 5 to come out on audio! The 3 that are out so far have become my “comfort audiobooks”. I’ve listened to them multiple times and sometimes nothing else will quite do.
