Epic and interesting

This is a awesome story and I recommend that everyone should listen to it 😌😙😝😝😝😝😝😜😍😉wow impressed want final book now!!!!

Builds up the tension

This is a great penultimate book, David Tennant is absolutely brilliant, he gives the characters such distinct personalities. The story is tension laden but touching and funny. This is one of the deeper books in the series but is still quite light on the whole.
Pure quality

A great holiday listen for all the family

What made the experience of listening to How to Betray a Dragon's Hero the most enjoyable?

We have followed the adventures of Hiccup on audible from the first story to this the penultimate in the series. David Tennant's reading is a full scale production & helps you to picture all the different characters.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Toothless is the best for all of us though Hiccup and Kamikaze run a close second.

What about David Tennant’s performance did you like?

The whole production is wonderful. David Tennant is excellent and you can easily identify all the different characters

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

We especially love listening to them on long car journeys as they help make the journey bearable especially when stuck in traffic.

Any additional comments?

Sad that the series is nearly finished but also can't wait till the next title is released with David Tennant reading it of course.

Greatest book I've listened too!

Simply amazing a marvellous book!
Very long but overall I think this is the best of the how to train your dragon books yet

Teeehehe

I liked all of it and the last bit was amazing i love it a lot

Amazing, as usual!

Finished book 11 and loved it, just like all the previous ones. The storyline is great but what makes these books so amazing is David Tennant's narration. I still can't believe that he does all the voices!!

Sad that we're now about to start the last book. My daughter already said we'll just have to start with the first one again.

Fantastic series

Loved it, we listened as a family. Great storytelling. Thoroughly enjoyable, exciting and memorable. Having watched the movies, they don't even come close.

Outstanding!

It seems so long ago that I started my travels with Hiccup and now I'm almost at the end of the journey. What a journey meeting Hiccup as that young somewhat puny youngster, destined for greatness yet not being able to achieve it until he'd gone through every hoop, accompanied by Toothless and his (human) friends.

I'm glad I was at home when I listened to the final chapters (in this book) because normally, I listen while out walking, but fortunately, I was able to cry in private when some devastating news is delivered.

Hiccup makes me believe that we all have the powers within us to overcome adversity. To venture into the unknown with courage and to believe that all people can be forgiven.

David Tennant is an extraordinary narrator. He captures each moment, each character and makes the listener cling to each and every word.

I'm sad that I only have one book left in this series, fortunately, I do own all the books so I can look forward to returning to them time and again. Listening to them just once is not enough. (Especially if you believe in dragons!)
