About this listen

She was brought up to hate magic...but now she's learning the truth.

Yanna Gray is part of her family’s Virginia based witch hunting enterprise, helping rid Earth of anything—and anyone—magic. It's the only life she's ever known. But that all changes when a mage opens an interdimensional portal, flinging Yanna into a frightening magical world.

Ragond is straight out of the forbidden fairy tales Yanna once read. Mythical creatures, witches, and mages live in harmony with humans. Here, all she’s grown up believing is turned on its head—especially when she discovers her own magical abilities.

Without access to a portal to Earth, Yanna is invited to shelter at Stonehaven—the training ground for witches, mages, and dragon riders—where she discovers true friendship, camaraderie, and a surprising bond with an ancient dragon. But all too quickly, Yanna’s magic-hunting past catches up to her.

Now, to save her friends and the dragon who partnered with her, Yanna must decide what she believes and who to trust.

Or her past might become Ragond’s downfall.

This is the first in a series in which we meet 16 year old Yanna, who has been brought up in a USA where hunters operate outside the law to eradicate magic users on the basis they are evil. Yanna's strict parents are arch exponents of this practice and she has witnessed torture and execution. Fighting a witch for possession of a powerful amulet, she falls into another realm where she encounters witches, mages, dragons, dragonriders and mythical creatures. By luck she is given food and shelter in an academy which teaches use of magic and dragonriding. However, she has conflict of conscience and has to adapt her thinking in encountering so many and so much she has been taught is wrong until now.
She makes allies and learns to trust, as well as coming into her own powers. Teachers set her an example in tolerance and positivity and she even learns to cope with being stalked by a great dragon. Through the device of her being in school, we learn a lot about the different types of magic and where and when they may be employed as well as the nature of the wielders. This tale has a satisfying resolution whilst leaving doors open for further developments.
I found it easy to distinguish who was speaking and when there was narration. Shades of emotion and tension were also conveyed by tone and pace.
This is for you if you like young adult fiction and epic fantasy witnessing a coming of age .

If you like dragons, wizards and witches, these stories are for you. There is always something unexpected, some complications and a life that suddenly changes. I liked how friendships, a lot of tenacity and together helps to find new directions. The performance was mostly good, but sometimes emotions such as excitement, fear, ...are not emphasized enough
