The Dragon in Winter brings New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Maberry's epic Kagen the Damned Trilogy to a wild conclusion!

War is coming! War is here! The Witch-king of Hakkia, aided by terrifying dark forces, sits uneasy on his stolen throne. His enemies, led by Kagen the Damned and the Bloody Bastards have found the secrets of ancient magic they hope will defeat him. Strange forces gather on both sides—vast armies of both the living and the dead, devious trickster spirits, strange gods, warrior ghosts, undying vampires, blood plagues that drive people to murderous rage, immortal faeries, and Earth’s last dragon.

Kagen knows that he faces the impossible task of toppling a usurper whose dark magic conquered an empire in a single night. But the Damned fear nothing and there are no limits to what Kagen will do to destroy the Witch-king. With his allies he will tear apart the veils that separate our world from the infinite realms of supernatural magic. The Witch-king will not go down with a fight, and he is willing to drown the western lands in innocent blood to retain his stolen crown. Even if he rules over an empire of dust and blood. His power is growing and soon he will be unstoppable.

But they are not the only forces at work in the world. Magic of all kinds is awakening and who can tell which side they will pick…or if they will pose a new and terrible threat to all! In the frozen North, the last dragon—tortured, captive, dying—cries out in despair. In the inky vastness of the outer dark that cry is heard! And something of incalculable power is coming in answer.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"An intriguing mashup of epic fantasy and cosmic horror lore and tropes, exciting action sequences, and interesting, sympathetic characters.... Fun and clever."–Kirkus Reviews

Fantastic

Fantastic ending to a great series of books. Lot’s of fun and twists and turns!

A ball of knots

This book and this series was like a ball of knots, so carefully and deliberately tangled that Maberry was able to pull that final act like a loose thread and unravel all the mystery and horror and intrigue and gore in a mindbendingly satisfying tug leaving you with but a simple string of awe.

EPIC conclusion!!!

Absolutely fell in love with this series and Kagen!! The conclusion has epic battles, well deserved endings for certain characters and of course, dragons!! Ray Porter is such a fantastic narrator for this series, loved every minute!!!

Great Conclusion

This story was worth the wait. Everything was wrapped together well, by the end of this book. And yet I feel like there could be more adventures of Kagan...? Ray Porter, as usual, KNOCKED IT outta the park!

Epic!

Mayberry and Porter hit it out of the park once again. This was a fantastic story from beginning to epic heartfelt ending!

WONDERFUL!

I love this book and the entire series. If you haven’t yet read or listen to it you’re missing out amazing characters storylines battles, characters, world building everything about this book was amazing.

I highly recommend this series!

Great ending!!

What a great trilogy!!! And Ray Porter is a master performer!!! I love everything he narrates!!!! Don’t get me wrong, Jonathan Maberry is a fave author of mine!! No spoilers, just a great series.

the fact the Jonathan Maberry can write any style

excellent work as always, a wonderful storyteller. if Jonathan Maberry wrote it ... it is worth the time to read it. Horror, fantasy, sci Fi, mens adventure, young adult, frankly I'm waiting for the bad books and it has yet to arrive.

What an experience!

I’m a long time Maberry fan and yet I can say without a doubt that he has outdone himself with this one. I literally want to experience amnesia so I can experience this book again for the first time. There was so much grit and heartbreak, such wonderful descriptions of the vast and the unfathomable, so much vulnerability and strength. I am blown away and I hope you enjoy the experience as much as I did.

action,passion.

I loved it entirely and would recommend to everyone. excellent read.you will not be disappointed in any way. ray port is excellent.
