Resumen del Editor

Mistress of Dragons is the first volume in an epic fantasy trilogy entitled The Dragonvald. Here is a world where men and dragons coexist amid political intrigue and dark magic, where the uneasy balance of power between the two is on the verge of becoming undone, threatening to unleash waves of destruction that will pit humans against humans as well as dragons against men for the domination of the world. Humanity's very survival is at risk.

The power to hold the chaos at bay, the terrible secret that maintains the balance, rests in the hands of a new and inexperienced Mistress of Dragons.

Don't miss the next book in the Dragonvarld Trilogy The Dragon's Son.

Keeping the standard

Margaret Weis has long been noted in our family as a top notch author, and she continues to maintain that standard with this book. This is the first audio book we've listened to by Ms. Weis, and Gigi Marceau-Clarke has tapped into Ms. Weis storytelling style with remarkable skill. The only down side: waiting for the next segment of the story!

Wonderful Book

I love all of the books by margaret weis, I just wish that there were more of them on audible. loved this book it is wonderful.

Boring

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

I would not recommend this to a friend. Weis is clearly dialing it in here.

Has Mistress of Dragons turned you off from other books in this genre?

No. There are still plenty of other good books in the genre.

Would you listen to another book narrated by Gigi Marceau-Clarke?

Depends on the book.

Was Mistress of Dragons worth the listening time?

Not at all worth the listening time.

Good listening to

Great storyline, unexpected turn of events in a set of multi-faceted characters. Am already looking forward to the sequel "A Dragon's Son" --- hope you pre-ordered :)

Wonderful Tale of adventure!

The story was true to the mark Weis has set. The suspense of waiting for the next one is going to kill me!

More Unabridged Weis!

I've been reading Margaret Weis for years, and I was thrilled when I saw "Mistress of Dragons". All I can say is, "More! More!"

What a great story!

My husband and I just finished this audio book and we anxiously await the next installment of this imaginative and unpredicable story. The characters are richly drawn and the story constantly kept us amazed and guessing. Ms. Weis is not afraid of getting out on a limb and that is one thing that makes this story so fascinating and unique. The narrator is well-choosen. The book is told in a well-paced voice with good character differenciations. I loved being carried away to the land of dragons and the unpredictible human pawns during our long commutes to work.

simple minded

I chose this book since I had been a fan of Weis and Hickman's Dragonlance stories as a child. This story fares well as a fantasy, but the characters for the most part seem to be dumbfounded one dimensional creatures who have no more depth then thier role in the story. the story wanders in and out of coehesion and that is slightly annoying. In the case that you are seeking background noise in the form of an audiobook then please give this a listen but if you are coming to this expecting a grand adventure like older works that our mistress has worked on, then shy away and wait till she wants again works with the assistance of a solid writer.

Mistress of Dragons

I do love Dragons, but I don't like books much. This book realy got my attention. As the story goes you just don't see some things coming and it does keep you very interested. I take my hat off to the auther who did a great job writing this book. It was so good that I can't wait to read the others in the seires and will look for more Dragon books by this auther

Fantastic

I couldn't put this book down. About the time I thought I knew what it was about, it shocks me by something I never saw coming.

I was very intrigued by the story, and can hardly wait to listen to the 2nd book. Definitely worth your time to listen to this one.
