Publisher's Summary

There is nothing in the universe the cursed dragon, Falcyn, hates more than humanity... except Greek humans. In a war he wanted no part of, they systematically destroyed everything he'd ever cared for. Now he waits for the day when evolution will finally rid him of the human vermin.

Medea was born the granddaughter of the Greek god Apollo, and among the first of his people that he cursed to die. But she will not let anyone rule her life. Not even her notorious grandfather. And when Apollo sends a new plague to destroy what remains of her people, she refuses to stand by and watch him take everything she loves from her again.

This time, she knows of a secret weapon that can stop the ancient god and his army of demons. Once and for all. However, said device is in the hands of a dragon who wants nothing to do with politics, the gods, humanity, demons or Apollites. And especially not her. He is the immovable object.

She is the unstoppable force...

When Apollo makes a strategic move that backfires, he forces Falcyn back into play. Now Medea either has the weapon she needs to save her people, or she's unleashed total Armageddon. If she can't find some way to control the dragon before it's too late, Falcyn will be an even worse plague on the world than the one Apollo has set loose. But how can anyone control a demonic dragon whose sole birthright is world annihilation?

you'll need a series compendium

I struggle to finish this book I actually for the first time ever skipped about five or six chapters and I'm thinking about returning it there were so many characters from so many different books that not even the narrator could keep up with the voices it was a difficult book to comprehend love the series not this book

Why is Medea have a southern accent

Medea's weird southern accent was not only a crappy attempt at an accent but...she predates the south. She would never have that accent. It made it really hard to get into the book. Had to stop listening when he got to Simi. It was awful on the ears!

Informative and confusing

Would you consider the audio edition of Dragonsworn to be better than the print version?

Never read the print so I can't say

What three words best describe Holter Graham’s performance?

For the most part very good.

Any additional comments?

Holter Graham should be banned from doing any books with Simi in them. it almost made my ears bleed. no offense.

OH WOW! SPOILER ALERT!

SPOILER ALERT...SPOILER ALERT....SPOILER ALERT!!!

STOP READING IF YOU DON'T WANT A HUGE SPOILER ALERT!

Still here?...Okay, here goes!

Archon is NOT the father!!! Archon is NOT Acheron's father!!!
Okay, if you have been keeping up with the story, you kind of had this idea, but this book confirmed it! Who is he? Well, can you say a big possible Kessar? That's what I pick up from this book, or it could still be Savitar or, maybe not. I know, I know, make up your mind, but it's so very hard to do! We are set up for the next part of the Dark Hunters story with this one, and I can't wait!

Okay, now the book review...

We got a lot of good and useful information with this one. You get the full story of how the dragon's came to be, and who made them and why they were made. We learned the truth about Urian and Pheobe. That Pheobe is not dead, but she is not the same, and we still see Apollo being his usual shitty self. The time line kind of messed me up with the fact that in this book Acheron is still sleeping with that
"Goddest Bitch" Artemis. You pick that up from our wonderful girl Simi! Yes, she's back and in full Simi mode! Thank God for the Simi!

Take the plunge and get this one! Well worth the credit!

great absolutely great

I didn't think Falcon could beat Allirian but he did. this was a great read.

Sherrilyn scores, AGAIN!!!

I am very impressed with BOTH the story AND the narrator's performance!! The story matches 2 beings who are equally matched, in so many ways, yet she created just enough differences between them that they balance each other out. I am VERY INTRIGUED with where she will lead the plot next, with the way the story ended, and it will be a bloody battle for all when things gets started in the next installment in the Dark Hunters Series. I have not read the next book, yet, as I type this review, so don't spoil it for me and the other like me!!

As for the narrator, BRAVO!! Holter Graham has done his best performance, yet, in reading Dragonsworn to us!! He has the best information in his tone, at the proper moment. Holter reads the words at the best pace, and has a very dramatic way, in the best ways, about how he reads specific parts of the book, displaying the proper emotions at the proper time, at the proper volume and with the most appropriate tone possible for that moment!!

Wonderful performance, all around!!!!!

Meh!😑

I don’t know why, but the last few books by Kenyon just aren’t up to previous novels. Still, this book is good; just not great. I guess it’s a bit off-putting since many of the storylines and groups are converging together.

best of the first 3

enjoyed this book it is the best of the Dragon series yet. very nice job.

Absolutely loved it, eagerly awaiting next book.

major fan of Sherrilyn Kenyon and the Dark Hunter Series. eager for the next book

So much better than Dragonmark...

Thankfully this book didn't contain chapters of previous books like Illarions story did. Book itself was really good but I miss Fred Berman's narration more and more. Holter is a great narrator, but he is inconsistent with character voices book to book and can't do a decent Simi to save his life. It's painful to listen too and I love Simi as a character. Overall worth a credit if you are still invested in this series.
