Through Blood and Dragons

The Forged and the Fallen, Book 1

De: R.M. Schultz

Narrado por: Ben Farrow

In the aftermath of war, dragon riders walk alone.

A time has come when the Dragon Queen must destroy Cimeren in order to create something new. The Dragon Queen of Murgare barrels toward the lone outpost of Nevergrace, riding her infamous shadow dragon and destroyer of kingdoms. She seeks retribution for her murdered king.

At Nevergrace, Cyran Orendain encounters a snarky forest dragon named Eidelmere who is bitter and resentful, having seen many centuries of battle and betrayals. Cyran forges an unlikely bond with the creature, which hurls him down a path he never could have imagined. He will wield magic, lance, and bow, and become a rider and ally to Eidelmere.

Cyran's sister, Jaslin, must learn of the old guard and the many breeds of dragons, of their magic, and discover a mysterious power she can wield and use to lead her people.

Pravon the Dragon Thief roams the lands stealing these creatures and performing deeds under blood contract to a concealed employer. In the beginning, his objectives are obscure, but the closer he comes to the war, the more someone's darker intentions are brought to light.

For in the end, it will take strategizing with many unique dragons, magic, and forging bonds with the creatures.

One side will bleed and one will fall.

But little do they understand each other.

And either the queen or the knight will rise from the ashes of dragon fire.

Great original take on Dragons

Good story and character development. An original take on how Dragons are used in battle and the use of different points of view between the different factions is interesting

A fun dragon story

it's worth a listen and I enjoyed listening to it. Net the best but still worth a listen.

Confusing chaotic

Not quite sure what to say about this one feels like it skipped the editing step and narrator mispronounces names frequently enough that sometimes I’m not quite sure who’s talking. Between those two factors feels very chaotic and confusing. Having read the wheel of time several times over the last 20 years both in book and audio book form this was much harder to follow with less characters.

excellent storytelling

loved this book I would recommend it to anyone who likes fantasy and dragons

A thrilling new epic fantasy adventure

This voice actor has an alluring style and performs some amazing character voices.

Dragons fighting with archers and bolts where you can feel what it would be like and experience the sensation. I loved all the main characters each in their own good or evil ways. Many twists will unfold but I don't want to include spoilers. Lots of intrigue with superb writing of dragons and battles and magic and deception. It gets bloody sometimes but nothing spicy.

It reminded me of Lord of the Rings, Stormlight archives, A Game of Thrones, and The Wheel of Time series.
