About this listen

They want Nath Dragon ... Brenwar, Shum, Bayzog and Sasha's lives hang in the balance deep inside the crater. Ben discovers Garrison is an ally of the Clerics of Barnabus and has to handle it on his own. The War Priest Kryzak's diabolical plans continue to unfold with one trap after another. The High Priestess Selene's army is hunting the heroes down. Sansla Libor, the winged ape, still lingers nearby. Is he a threat or an ally? Nath Dragon's powers will be pushed to the limits. How much more can Nath handle as the forces of evil continue to beckon for him?

Book 5 carries straight on from Book 4, with Nath forced to choose between saving one pair of friends or another. He somehow finds a way to (almost) do both and emerges unscathed, with more conflict against the clerics of Barnabus to follow. Nath eventually succumbs to his half-dragon body's need to "regenerate" (i.e. grow more scaly) and we get a surprising 20+ year jump in timeline while he sleeps.
The action was thick and fast, albeit with Nath out of it for a fair chunk. Also, strangely we lose the 1st person perspective when he awakes - whether this was deliberate in order to distance Nath from his slightly immature inner-monologue, or some other stylistic choice is not clear. It is a bit of a shame to lose this aspect, but I will cope.
Another fun adventure with more serious conflict to come in book 6.

More fun with Nath
