Publisher's summary

What kind of power is lurking inside him?

After a year of training to become a dragonrider, Jaevid Broadfeather has been sent home to rest during a three-month interlude. But when he returns to find the king drake has chosen Beckah Derrick as his new rider, Jaevid realizes something big is about to happen.

Every fiber of his being is pushed to the breaking point as Jaevid battles through his avian year, preparing for the final graduation test of the battle scenario. But there is more standing in his way than a few push-ups and fancy sword moves. Jaevid must face a new fear as he is tormented by a gruesome nightmare of a mysterious gray elf warrior murdering the royal family of Maldobar. It seems obvious to him that this is some kind of message about how the war started long ago - until Felix assures him the king is very much alive.

With his strange powers growing stronger by the day and that violent dream replaying in his mind every night, Jaevid no longer wonders if he will pass his avian year or not - he wonders if he will even survive it. The truth will soon be set loose.

I really enjoyed this book.

You'll like this book if you like Eragon, Godling chronicles, and other Dragon / Elves stories. Great read. Can't wait to finish the series.

Plainly, clearly, and unabashedly a cliff hanger!

In some of the recent reviews, the reviewer has stuck their delicate nose in the air and disparaged the author for not being more subtle about the next book in the series and put a distasteful cast to the term "cliff hanger". I hope none of them start this series for I fear they'll perish at the flagrant cliff hanger ending! But it is an appropriate ending in this case: the book has energy and action of the most intriguing kind and encompasses everything that makes a successful listen or read depending on the purchaser's preference. This is a second book and worthy of the 5 stars for story. Buy and enjoy!

Story makes up for the slow-talking narrator.

Honestly I hated the first book, I literally was skimming through it as I was so tired of Jaevid getting beat up. He seemed so accepting of it I couldn't listen, it was annoying buuut this book really picks up!! Lots of twists, and character progression of course.

I highly recommend this book.

Narrator is 2/5 but the story is worth it.

The narrator talks a little too slow, and draws out most words in a weird way, sometimes I listen at 1.25 speed... FAR from my favorite narrator.. it's weird. He narrates so slow(talks slow) it feels like Jaevid is a slow thinker, but he's not.
