Publisher's summary

"Gray dragons are different, my son. It means you must be careful; your skin will be pierced more easily. But on the other hand, having no hunger for gems and gold will allow you to live in the Upper World and far from men."

High in the mountains, deep in the safety of a cave, a brood of dragons is born. The four young ones are among the last of a dying breed - the final hope for dragons' survival. But hope shatters when a murderous group of slave-trading dwarves breaks into the cave, leaving death and destruction in its wake.

Only young Auron, a rare scaleless gray dragon, manages to escape. Armed with nothing save wit, claws, and a boundless determination to survive, he seeks his kind. But to find other dragons - or at least discover who's killing them off - Auron will have to search a world of mercenary elves, vicious humans, and dangers of all kinds. Winning allies in the strangest places - and finding himself along the way - Auron embarks on the journey of a thousand-year lifetime.

Great book to listen with children!

What did you love best about Dragon Champion?

My grandson are almost done with this book and cant wait to start book 2. We listen each day on the way home from school and never want to turn off the car. He loves dragons and the way E.E. Knight writes and educates you at the same time is amazing.

oops

Between chapters 14 and 15 someone should remove the message saying that the book continues on the next CD. Otherwise very good.

The first of hopefully many audio books I hear

I though the narrator did a great job of bringing the story to life and differentiating between the characters by pitching his voice differently and providing accents. This is the first professionally done audio book I've ever listened to and I enjoyed it a lot.

As for the story, I recommend it highly especially if you like dragon's and even more so if you'd like to see the dragon as the main character capable of thought and friendship as well as fire breathing and fighting.
