Dragon's Hope

Red Planet Dragons of Tajss Series, Book 4

By: Miranda Martin, Juno Wells

Narrated by: Tristan James, Jillian Macie

Length: 6 hrs and 43 mins

Publisher's summary

Before the generation ship crashed on this desert alien planet, I was a vagrant. Unplanned and unwanted, struggling to survive.

Now, we're on Tajss, and if not for the natives, seven-foot-tall dragon-men with wings and tails and scales, we'd all be dead.

My new friends are finding love, and I couldn't be happier for them, but I want to fit in, I want to have a place and a purpose. Strangely enough, the only one who might understand is one of those scaled dragon-men.

I wanted comfort and attention, but it turns out "one-night stand" doesn't translate into Zmaj. He wants more and won't give up until he claims his treasure. Me.

Contains mature themes.

Amazing

Just can’t get enough of this storyline the author and narrators are amazing. Y’all keep pulling me in and can’t wait for the next one.

Another Dragon love story!

I enjoyed this fourth book in this series very much. The books can be listened to as standalone, but make much more cohesive stories of listened to from start of series. The heroine is a misfit, who never fit in on the generational ship. But as she finds her place on the desert planet, learning to be a hunter, she falls in love with the hero who has claimed her for his own. Throw in a return of the nasty slavers, an unknown colony of natives, plus an unexpected find of the other half of the ship and it’s survivors and things get exciting. Narration was well done.

Good story!

The Hero: Astarot - he is a zmaj dragon from Draganoff. He has known for a while that Lana is his mate, his treasure. He knows she doesn’t see him that way but is content to wait for her to come around. He lives and works with humans; he doesn’t know any other males like him that are alone and don’t have mates. He feels he doesn’t belong.

The heroine: Lana - On the generation ship, she had been an outcast and a vagrant. Since it crashed her life has changed, and she is in the same boat as all the other human women on the planet. As a vagrant, she was always struggling to survive, she didn’t have a job like the rest of the ship’s population, vagrants are seen as a drain on the ship’s resources. Here on Tajss, she can help hunt and contribute.

The Story: Lana is interested in Astarot when she hears he has been watching her. She sees a kindred spirit in Astarot, since he feels he doesn’t belong, and she has always felt that way as well. Though Astarot, is shy and it is a bit hard to get to know him. Though she decides that she wants to hook up with him for the night, little does she know, that the zmaj don’t understand the concept of a one-night stand.

The pirates (slavers) that crashed the human ship might have still be out there on the planet. They have raided smaller villages in the past and captured slaves and could still be a threat. The story is decent and there is also the unrest between the humans. Many of the human men don’t like the fact that some of the women have mated to the zmaj.

The story on this one is pretty good; the two main characters end up having quite an adventure when they are out hunting. I don’t want to give away the plot, but they seem to keep getting out of the pot and into the fire every time there is danger.

This audiobook was told in dual points of view via dual narration. It was narrated by Tristan James and Jillian Macie. These two aren’t my favorite narrators but they are ok. Tristan James has a bit of an odd tempo, and his voice isn’t as deep as I usually like. Jillian Macie is good at showing emotion through her voice but her voice kind of sounds like a high school student to me.

Love the Dragon men

This is a steamy addition to the series. It has a surprise and some added drama too. It does need to listened to in order in my opinion. Tristan James and Jillian Macie were phenomenal narrators!

This was a better collaboration

This story was much better than book 3. I did not find Lana as whiney or put off as Amara. I love the development of the story and the new discoveries. I don't want to spoil your read so please enjoy the blossoming romance. The only negative thing I have for this book. There were so many new characters, it appears the authors were rushing to complete. The positive- from this book alone, there are 6 or more stories to be developed. There are so many options. I can't want to see what the authors will write.

the FL is kinda annoying

the main female character in both book 3 snd 4 were very annoying. i am all for a strong femaoe lead but theh are just plain stupid. in both book the female lead follow into the wild and don't follow direction which cause either them to die or their man counter part tk die. their attitude while knowing the danger of their missions is just fucking annoying and makes me not connect with their characters.
