🎧 Audio Review: Highly recommend these audiobooks! Same narrator for the series and he does an excellent job!
📝 Story Review: An amazing conclusion to this episodic style series that’s had me hooked since book 1!
Caden escapes from his holding cell and is determined to release his dragon from her fate. Still unwilling to see that she’s filled with hate and transferring it to him.
Meanwhile, Mina has been honing her fighting skills and thinks she’s ready to do whatever it takes to keep dragon kind safe, even if it means ending her former friend once and for all.
I don’t know exactly what I expected, but this conclusion was not it! And I’m not complaining! Although I didn’t see this ending happening the way it did, I was happy with how it all turned out!
My Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5/5
Vibes: Resolution; fast paced action & a suspenseful conclusion!

- Going up against a former friend

Entertaining Series
This series was more than I expected. I felt I could see the action played out on the screen behind my eyelids. There was action, adventure, excitement, drama, suspense, fantasy, and a little romance. I look forward to a second phase of this series-a rebirth of sorts.

Sacrifice of the Dragon
This was a fitting ending to the series. All the storylines are wrapped up and there is lots of action. It was nice to see Lireth do something good at the end.

Most Ecsighting writing
Keeps you guessing all the way through not knowing what will come next or how it might happen to unfold let alone who will do what

Many loose ends – or questions raised and then dropped. Bummer as I liked the series overall. Quick and easy read/listen.
