Dragon Mage

The First Dragon Rider, Book 3

De: Ava Richardson

Narrado por: Tiffany Williams

To unite a fractured kingdom, a reluctant hero must rise.

Neill has been charged with the impossible task of bringing the Middle Kingdom together to fight the burgeoning threat posed by the rogue sorcerer Ansall and his dragon Zaxx. Neill longs for his old life as a mere foot soldier for his father, responsible only for his family’s well-being, and is unsure about whether he is fit to lead an army. Neill’s contemplative nature forces him to consider every aspect of the problems he faces, but often makes it difficult for him to take action - and failure to act could mean the deaths of many.

Now, echoing Char and their dragon Paxala, his duty beckons him to lead the Dragon Riders and take his rightful place as king, but with doubt and new enemies creeping in, his resolve will be tested.

When the mysterious Dark Prince arrives with an offer, Neill will have to make a decision that could change the course of history. As Ansall grows in strength by harnessing black magic, Neill must choose between his own desires and the welfare of the entire kingdom. Can he rise to the challenge before it’s too late?

great ending

Another great addition to the saga and it gets even more intense where it culminates in the battle between the good and evil. I am happy the good wins in the end, but at what cost. Listening to Neill battling with all the insecurities broke my heart, those around him never saw it and sometimes made it worse. It ended well for him though, realizing that Char is the one meant for him. Loved the dragons, their interaction with the riders and how they are integral to the whole story.
I recommend this book, the series to listeners of all ages.

I enjoy listening to Ms. Williams' voice and her story-telling style making for an enjoyable listening experience.

I love these dragon books! I love most dragon books but these I feel I get to know the dragons and the riders personally. The action, excitement, intrigue, thrills, danger, and so much more all rolled up in these books. This is a great series. What is better than a young sorcerer and a dragon?
The narrator is awesome and performs the voices well and makes the emotions flow with her words. Wonderful job!!!

overall good book could have been better

character development is better in later writings swearing of characters did not add to the story... enjoyed the story though and would recommend the book.

Nicely done.

always are to your lady do the man's part but nicely done . the dragon noises nice.

Their work is cut out for them

This book is mostly from Neill’s point of view. He has difficult decisions ahead... they have taken the Monastery from the evil Ansall and ousted Zaxx from the crater with the help of the dragons. But now what? How are they to run their new Dragon Academy? How are they to protect it? How are they to help the people in the surrounding lands from tyrants and Ansall and Zaxx, and most of all - is he truly the one to be in charge? Unsure of his abilities, of offered alliances, or family ties, Neill along with Char and their human and dragon friends do what they can.

This is not a complicated or in-depth book, but a very enjoyable read for teens to adults. This is the second book I’ve read/listened to by this author and I would love listen to another. I have previously listened to Dragon Dreams (book 2). I want to listen to all in this series and would like to try another series by her as well. This book has a conclusion but is not a stand-alone. It ends setting the scene for the next book.

This is the second book I’ve listened to by this narrator and I would gladly listen to another. She has different voices for the individual characters. I like the voices she gives to the dragons and how she makes their screeching sounds. She brings life to the story.

There are no explicit sex scenes, excessive violence or swearing.

Reluctant hero

It felt like poor Neill kept getting thrown into situations he didn't want to be in and then no one was noticing how he felt, yet he always came through when he was needed just like in the first 2 books.

This book is a great ending to the story, and these books definitely need to be listened to in order.

There's lots of action and old enemies keep coming back. The story is creative and I enjoyed the twists that it took. With dragons a wizards it's not surprising that there's not a dull moment.

The character voices were great and the delivery was well paced and conveyed the emotions of the characters and scenes.

I received a free copy of this book from the author and/or narrator and/or publisher and I voluntarily wrote this honest review.
