Rise of the Last Dragon Rider

The Last Dragon Rider, Book 2

De: Shawn Wilson

Narrado por: Eric Michael Summerer

From the author of Ultimate Level 1: Bonded to a powerful dragon, Kaen finds himself at the helm of challenging expeditions . . . and an unexpected love.

Before Kaen can win a battle—much less a war—he must learn how to harness the incredible energy of his lifestone, and identify who is friend and who is foe as others join his cause. Trained by the aging Elies and his dragon, Tharnok, Kaen and his own dragon, Pammon, urge each other harder and higher with every practice run, all in service of the fight that is ultimately Kaen's destiny.

The thrill of challenges in far-flung kingdoms ignites a kind of joy Kaen has never felt before. Even the sometimes-messy work of learning Pammon's quirks is exciting. But it's a woman named Ava who lights an unmistakably passionate spark in him. However, he must fulfill his purpose before laying claim to the bright promise of a future with the woman he loves.

Meanwhile, Kaen's dreams are haunted by Stioks, the heartless villain responsible for his father's death. Now, he must determine whether to risk flying across the great waters to find the land of the dragons and recruit some aid—or face off against Stioks directly, despite being massively outnumbered.

Encompassing adventures both breathtaking and perilous, Rise of the Last Dragon Rider is the thrilling continuation of the story of a hero's journey—perfect for fans of Christopher Paolini and Rick Riordan alike.

The second volume of the hit LitRPG adventure series—with almost two million views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

Callie brummlen

I liked that Kane can do lightning shot and I hope that pamen has an egg and Callie bonds with it.

Can't wait for the next one

absolutely amazing. Now gotta wait for book three. Hairy dwarf balls! Looking at the title of the next book it makes me worried

Great story

story line was good and the character building was not outrages. I do love the humor that is throughout the book.

Great edition to dragon fantasy

A great addition to dragon fantasy. Up there with Inheritance & Songs of Chaos. While not as quite as good as those (yet) has great potential to be just as good. Can’t wait till the fall of the last rider. I am not as stupid that the hero arc you have to knock down the hero to his lowest point to be able to have an epic victory. Hence the next title “fall of the last dragon rider”. I just pray we don’t get the whole for shadow of the main hero family legacy with children (not going to spoil it. If you know you know). I would love to finally have a happy ending for once is the past 20yrs where the hero gets the girl and lives happily ever after with his whole family!!!! If one particular person dies (again if you know you know) I will stop reading this series.

I have one nitpick

Another excellent book in this series. Lots of interesting new developments and excitement to come for the next book. I look forward to reading it.

I have one nitpick that genuinely annoyed me to no end. I will preface that this is a minor spoiler. If you’re cool with that, then keep reading.

Kaen through a series of events gains a skill called poison resistance. It also gets power leveled just like some of his other skills to an absurd degree. Yet, despite this skill, he still is somehow unable to hold his liquor. To be fair, there is still room for this happenstance to be intentional, but I kinda doubt it.

An argument could be made that in this fantasy world, alcohol is not inherently harmful but just a fun loopy liquid for adults to enjoy. However, I dislike that idea.

The other thought I had was that because it’s a skill that might not necessarily be passive and because Kaen might not consider alcohol a poison, the skill never triggered.

Regardless, alcohol is inherently harmful to the liver and body so therefore it is a poison.

I think I was also partially annoyed that the potential dynamic of this skill and the presence of alcohol could have played an interesting role in earning some clout with the dwarves.

Oh well. The book was still amazing nonetheless.

the time skip was odd to me

Im not that far in. The big points of the story are fine. maybe I'm just nitpicking but these small things are really bothering me.

Why didn't kaen go into his magic until after the time skip. Before the time skip he learned his fire shot. why did it take him two years to learn the lightning shot. Why did he stop at lightning. The jump in logic doesn't seem that far. If you have one element why not two. Why not four. He lived with elves for two years. Is a nature shot out of the question. It makes him seem dumb or unimaginative.

Also I think he should have done better against the Griffins. I get there're young but Dragons should be kings of the sky. Matched in ariel combat only by other dragons. but again yes they are young which may be an excuse. It was just sad to see them grounded so fast and easily. You know a dragon and all.

also in that fight why did Kaen get so flustered when the griffins dodged his shot. Your saying that every ariel enemy Elias put them against in the last two years had the dodging ability of a brick house. It all just seems like a lack of imagination or something.
