Heir of Elriyon

By: K. Michele Moseley

Narrated by: Penelope Graham

Aenya's destiny could cost her freedom.

After years of compulsory training to become an elite warrior, 16-year-old Aenya plans to run away with her friend Lewin. However, her plans crumble when she is chosen to be Elriyon’s new figurehead and wife to the future ruler, Rieve.

But Aenya has a secret: She is a Darcara - one chosen by elusive dragon-like beings, the Dargun, to receive the wisdom that once governed her people.

When the current rulers decide to stop a growing rebellion by killing the remaining Dargun, Aenya flees to Elriyon’s mysterious interior. Still, the Dargun’s words burn into her mind. They have a new task for her: return to her people and speak the truth, no matter the cost.

With escape close at hand, Aenya must choose between a dangerous calling or finally being free.

A YA fantasy adventure with dragons, a daring quest, and the lightest touch of romance.

Delightful!

My favorite genre is mysteries and thrillers, so even though initially it seemed more like a book for youths that's not the case here, although young people would likely enjoy it. I've listened to and read thousands of books in my lifetime so many themes are repeated over and over...not this. I'm not too big on dwarf and dragon stories BUT when they are as unique as this story you can't stop listening PERIOD. The story is so well written that you forget that it's a "made up" tale and are engulfed like you are actually living it. The narrator was simply incredible. The wrong narrator can destroy an outstanding book, but a great one can enrich the entire experience, like here! Can't wait for the sequel NOW PLEASE!

Wonderful story!

Clean and engaging fantasy. Very well written and beautifully preformed. I cannot wait for the next book!

Great YA audio book!

Great audio book! An engaging story that is narrated well. I appreciate that the characters have flaws, but they grow through struggle. I found myself reminded in positive ways of Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levine, the Folk of the Air series by Holly Black, and the Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis. If you're looking for a young adult story with action, internal struggle, great character dynamics, and awesome dragons, then you should definitely check it out. Any book that can make me laugh out loud and cry at the ending is a winner to me! Highly recommended.
