Özet

As a child, Asha's mother told her ancient, forbidden stories to drive away her nightmares - and the telling of them killed her. And when Asha repeated those stories, they summoned an ancient dragon which almost destroyed her city and left Asha horribly scarred.

Ever since, she has protected her city and people (and tried to make amends) by dragon slaying. And now she may have a way to both atone for the deaths she caused and to escape an arranged marriage: her father will free her in exchange for the head of Kovu, the ancient dragon.

And the only obstacle in her path is a defiant slave boy....

Eleştirmen yorumları

"Hugely enjoyable entertainment. Kristen Ciccarelli is most definitely an author to watch." (Edward Coz, author of The Relic Guild)
"An accomplished fantasy novel, of the kind I think of as 'royal palace shenanigans', raised above the commonplace by one marvellous central premise - the idea that dragons are the custodians of the old tale." (Joanne Harris)
"The most simple thing I can say is this is the best book I have ever read and Kirsten Ciccarelli is now my favourite author." (Tomi Adeyemi, author of Children of Blood and Bone)
"A grand endeavour where prejudice and abuse are faced with passion and loyalty, creating a tale where you care about the characters and the world they live in." (Terror Tree)

A beautiful story, I love the stories within the story. Really enjoyed this book and look forward to reading/listening to more by this author

beautiful

The story is ok, but slow to start, the characters feel like they are out of a tale from a thousand years ago, told by elders around camp fires. It was a nice story, but the characters aren’t deep enough to endear, the exchanges lack wit, definitely not a patch on the hunger games and the main female protagonist doesn’t have the strength to challenge the male world that controls her…. But it was ok. Lastly it might be just me, but the narrator is clearly from London, and fails to pronounce the ‘t’ sound at the ends of words…. This is irritating and feels like lazy narration. So I’m clearly a Received Pronunciation snob. It also stopped me from engaging with the characters with the emotional depth some books and narrators can command

Feels like a new telling of an ancient tribal story

The overall plot is interesting if a little rushed in places, some genuinely good twists. Didn't think much of the romance between the main character and her love interest.

Mackie does a good job with the narration, creating distinctly different voices for characters and also just generally she has a nice voice to listen to.

A decent enough listen

After reading The Crimson Moth I found this by the same author. The story has less spice, but is just as difficult to put down. The narration is great. If you enjoy dragon stories, forbidden romance, and a main character with a steep personal growth arc I would recommend this.

Unexpectedly Great

I loved this. It was rich in characters, world and the plot twists were brilliant. I really enjoyed Pearl Mackies interpretation and voices too.

Enjoyable and detailed
