Hunter

By: Nicole Conway

Narrated by: Josh Hurley

As the Kingdom of Maldobar emerges victorious from the brutal invasion of the Tibran Empire, much of the land is left in utter ruin. With his home destroyed and family gone, 16-year-old Thatcher Renley has no one left to turn to. And when he’s mistaken for a Tibran soldier and banished to a wartime prison camp, Thatcher knows his only hope for freedom lies in appealing to Queen Jenna directly.

But getting out of the prison camp might be the least of his worries - especially after he stumbles across a feral dragon locked in an iron cell.

As far as dragons go, Fornax is a lost cause. The battle that killed his rider also left him blind and too aggressive for any knight to control. But Thatcher can’t deny feeling drawn to the beast. Does he have what it takes to calm Fornax and join the proud ranks of Maldobar’s dragonriders? Only time will tell. And with a bloodthirsty Tibran witch threatening to rekindle the chaos of war, everyone’s time may be running out.

Fantastic addition to these chronicles

As soon as the book was out, it was time to listen!! Another story from Nicole that pulls me right in.

I must admit, it was hard not to hear Jesse’s voice narrating the well-known characters... a few of the differences in their voices threw me off. But Josh Hurley did a great job, and I was glad Thatcher got his own new voice.

I do think this is most satisfying if you’ve listened to the rest of the series first, but it certainly stands on its own. Dive in!

Back to reading this author

After the last two books I had decided that I was not going to read anymore of her books, too much violence and blood for me. But I just happened to see her in a newsletter and after reading the review decided to give it a try. I was very pleasantly surprised, and really enjoyed it. I am looking forward to the rest of the series and hope it does not go in a different direction. Story moved along at just the right pace, narration was good, really enjoyed the sequel to the first series.

So far not the authors best

I read the authors first series and like it. I was hoping this set would be just as good but so far not a great start. This first story is reallllllly slow. The story speeds through the most interesting thing that’s happened to the characters and goes into excruciating detail over the boring part. Like we get it, the dude can’t fight and he’s needs his best friend to babysit him the whole time (eyeroll). And these two main characters are meh; one is an annoying chickensh#t who is extremely dense and the other one is a jerk. How does this guy go thru all of these events and still be be scared all the time? You have a dragon! And an assassin for a best friend! Get some courage man! Oh well.

just okay

the detail put into the characters feelings were covered in depth, again...again...and again. I do understand a need to show a development of a character but lord have mercy a baseline was covered at neauseum.

honest review

Not a terrible story. just interesting enough to keep me listening. however if you're looking for a fast paced weak to strong MC then this isn't it. the characters emotions are realistic. they experience PTSD from war. the MC goes from a weak, pathetic, coward that starts shaking like a leaf in a windstorm when anyone raises their voice to the same by the end of this book so weak to weak. he's also completely clueless and way to trusting. like a little boy. hope he gets better.
