Elren: The Dragon Academy: The Complete Collection

Books 1-4

By: Oksana Grinberga

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

One mark. Two enemies. A bond forged in fire.
Avery always gazed at the Flying Islands, wondering what it felt like to ride the wind on the back of a dragon. But for a girl from the Drylands, those heights were forbidden—until the Mark of the Summons appeared on her wrist.
Now Avery is no longer a commoner. She is the Academy’s greatest liability. Whisked away by the Dean himself and thrust into a world of magic, politics, and power, she soon finds herself in the sights of the grim Lord of the North. As the Commonwealth Games approach and ancient enemies gather, Avery’s past threatens to burn everything down.
When the one person she trusted accuses her of a crime she didn’t commit and severs their dragon bond, Avery is left for dead on a deserted island. But they underestimated her. She is returning to Elren not just to compete, but to reclaim her heart, her dragon, and her future.
The complete four-book saga of the Elren Academy is finally here. Step into a world where the sky is not the limit. It is the battlefield.

love love love this

omg, this is so good!!! so many twists N turns, heartbreak, love, and lots of magic. The series just sucked me in and I finished this in 2 days.
do need to read. fyi, no sex.

Clean, great book would recommend

This book series has such a great story!! I would recommend 9+ years old and up, because of the complex scenes. The most romance is kissing. No cuss words which I appreciated even as an adult! 🥰

Good story, bad AI

The story as a whole was very good. My biggest gripe would be when characters are in a room talking, sometimes the author would narrate a summary of what the conversation was about instead of writing out the actual dialogue. Otherwise, very engaging and fun story.
The AI, though... First off, I fear those that gave the narrator a 5 star are fake reviews - though I have no proof. AI narration is not ready for reading fiction or stories with multiple characters sharing dialogue. It doesn't catch conversational nuances. "Mmhm..." as a distracted response to a friend becomes, "Ememhem," and statements often end with the inflection of a question. People who are supposed to sound angry or droll sound bright and cheerful. It sometimes mispronounces words or pronounces them differently at different times, making it hard to follow when those words are proper nouns.
In summary, I like the author's work, but AI isn't doing them any favors. And I really hope they aren't using fake reviews to boost their rating.

The ending sucked

I liked this book and the story all the way till the thrown together ending. It just felt like the author was tired of writing and just ended the book. Shame really. Like i said the story over all was good but i cant give it a better rating with the ending. AI reading it wasnt all bad either.
