About this listen

The Legion of Flame is the action-packed second audiobook in the Draconis Memoria series - an enthralling epic fantasy of magic, adventure and the furious battle to forge an empire.

Claydon Torcreek has survived drake-infested jungles, hostile tribes and the cold touch of betrayal - yet his troubles have only just begun.

The legendary white drake - believed to be nothing more than a myth - has awoken from its long slumber, with a thirst to reduce the world of men to ashes. One city has already fallen to the drake's formidable legions.

More will follow unless Clay can uncover an ancient secret that lies buried beneath the southern ice. Once again Clay must face unthinkable danger, and this time he carries not just the hopes of his own nation but the fate of the entire world.

I did struggle a with getting into part 1 of this series, but I think part 2 has really brought the story along. I agree with other reviewers that this series is not as compelling as the Tower Lord Series, but it still has a lot about it. The magic system is nearly as clever as a Sanderson creation, and I really like how Dragons play a large role in all of it. Looking forward to part 3.

I have really got into this...

I loved this book,
it gets better each listen.
am now very much looking forward to book 3

it did take getting used to the change in narrator from book one.

Fantastic!

I'm really enjoying this series - it has a Malazan feel to it - no where near as large or complicated but a nice flavour non the less. I will certainly be getting the 3rd audio book.
my only complaint is the Narrator. the 1st book has a different narrator to the 2nd. both had lively English accents but the narrator of the 2nd book decided to give some of the main characters an American Southern drawl. it was just bearable with the male characters, but went through me when it was the female characters sounding like southern bells.

surprising little gem

What did you like most about The Legion of Flame?

After listening to the first book I was worried that the author had made a mistake with this story line. Especially as I didn't really warm to the first book in the series. However I was pleased to discover this book to be a real page turner. I found the story compared very well to the first book in the Raven Shadow series which I enjoyed very much as that too kept me engaged from start to finish. I think the author failed to meet expectations in the 2nd and 3rd books of the Raven's Shadow series because he killed off his most interesting characters in book one and failed to replace them with anyone that really bonded to the main character. In this book however he has managed to create that same feeling of closeness towards the lead characters.

Steve Brand cannot be replaced as the name of Vaelin in the Raven Shadow series and an obvious choice for this series too. But for some reason he has been ousted in favour of
Steve West. The narrator change was a bit of a surprise as the characters had already been established in the first book. This did take some getting used to but the narrator has has made an excellent job of bringing the cast to life and he is a very talented narrator.

Hopefully book 3 isn't too far away.

Just brilliant
